Great to hear, I’d expect nothing less from a Jet Set Radio remake.

If you’re looking for a new Jet Set Radio style game, make sure to check out the recently released indie project Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. They did a great job of capturing the JSR spirit while modernizing the controls and gameplay. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1353230/Bomb_Rush_Cyberfunk/

It’s a fantastic game and deserves some recognition.

Absolutely. It makes me sad that there aren’t many posts about this awesome game (at least on Lemmy; there were at least like three subreddits before I left the other site).

They even got Hideki Naganuma (who did the music for the first two JSR games) to do some music for BRC.

If we’ve learned anything from the past, just give The Super Monkey Ball Monkey a gun

They should just replace all the reboot characters with Shadow the Hedgehog

I don’t care why they do it. I won’t say no to more Golden Axe.

I hope the Crazy Taxi reboot will be good, the original game is such a trip.

I feel like it is hard to mess up the formula as long as it doesn’t get too “modern gaming”. I was playing my Dreamcast over Thanksgiving and really wanting a new Crazy Taxi and JSR so I was pumped at first when I saw this, but I’ve stopped believing in the hype for games a decade ago.

Simple, just do what AEW is doing.

Just, please more women’s matches than that.

WWE writing notes I think is half the problem.

Unironically yes. Sonic 1 had 'tude: it was always part of the IP.

Sega were going mad with ideas during the Dreamcast era, so I welcome it back with open arms.
