''Jet Set Radio'' (originally known as ''Jet Grind Radio'' [[MarketBasedTitle in the NTSC U/C region]]) is a platforming/skating game released by Creator/{{Sega}} for the UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast in 2000, developed by Smilebit, who were made up of previous AM-6 employees, responsible for the ''VideoGame/PanzerDragoon'' series. The game is centered around [[RollerbladeGood roller-blading]] [[GangBangers street gangs consisting of teens and young adults called rudies]], who battle for turf by spraying graffiti around the streets of [[UsefulNotes/{{Tokyo}} Tokyo-to]]. Meanwhile, the rudies' culture is under attack by an evil corporate conglomerate called the Rokkaku Group which seeks to homogenize the city and whose [[CorruptCorporateExecutive leader]] seeks to take over the world through demonic means.

In 2002, a sequel was released for the UsefulNotes/{{Xbox}} called ''Jet Set Radio Future''. Set rather ambiguously to the first game, ''Future'' is more of a [[ReformulatedGame "remix"]]. The story is much the same, with some new twists and new elements, though the characters of the game are very different, and the city of Tokyo-to has seen a very drastic overhaul. The game was made to play much faster, replacing the [[ActionCommands joystick graffiti spraying]] with a simple 'hold the button and run' system, as well as making grinding a much more important skill (as well as making it easier to do).
