Yesssss!
I'd ask for a sequel, but I don't trust SEGA to do it right anymore.
Jet Set Radio Future is backwards compat on the Xbox 360.
Jonah FalconALL MY MONEY.
ALL MY GODDAMN MONEY.
and yes, JSRF technically works on 360. but with huge slowdown issues.
Awesome.
Estimated shipping time: 2-4 weeks.This make me happy.
#IceBearForPresidentI NEED THIS NEXT WEEK
PLEASE BE NEXT WEEK
Would you say, "I LIKE IT! I LIKE IT!"
I swear, if they don't get the rights to the original soundtrack, HEADS. WILL. ROLL.
I'm still mad over the abomination that was the Crazy Taxi port.

Mega Man fanatic extraordinaireI believe they still have license to use Hideki's music, which was the best in the game, so that'll be good at least. Everybody Jump Around I think they'll keep as well, I'm hoping Deavid Soul's stuff stays. Guitar Vader I'm not sure about(I think they disbanded), I hope their work stays because Magical Girl and Super Brother were some of the most memorable tracks from the game. It would not be the same fighting Poison Jam without them. BB Rights seems like a stay since they did Funky Radio.
I doubt the U.S specific tracks will be in though. Not sure about the Euro ones, Recipe for the Perfect Afro(from Feature Cast) needs to be in. Mischievous Boy/Bout the City/Electric Toothbrush/Hip Hop Hokkien I really want in but anyone's answer as to whether or not they stay.
If they have licesnsing issues I see them using tracks from JSRF to make up for the lost ones, though that means they'd have to redo the soundtrack for the game in order for itto mix properly. Gaaah I hope Sega doesn't mess that up.
It'd be cool if they had a graffitti market or something where it allows players to upload their custom graffitti online and download others or something. But I highly doubt it.
I know right? All I Want was like one of the first things you heard playing it back in the day, and it's not even there? Laaame.

I think they were waiting to secure the licensing before announcing it.
Jonah FalconOfficially confirmed, and coming to PC, too.
Jonah FalconMore info, including a bit about a contest to get your tag in the game.
"The difference between reality and fiction is that fiction has to make sense." - Tom Clancy, paraphrasing Mark Twain.Er, the previous link discusses the contest, too.
Jonah FalconThe game sounds interesting... even though I have no clue what it's about. Can someone fill me in?
There's only one good thing about Mary Sues... they don't exist in real life.^ Basically a platformer on inline skates. You roam around the city, spraying graffiti on designated spots. The main challenge is getting within reach of those places.
And the main draw is the best fucking soundtrack of all time.

Which better be intact. Not another Crazy Taxi incident please.
One question I have, that I'm sure many others have too: Which version of JSR is this exactly? JSR vanilla was the worst version, as it lacked stages, characters, had more glitches and was overall less polished than Jet Grind Radio/EU JSR or De La Jet Set Radio(the version I hope they're using).

It's coming on PC? If it comes on Steam...ok now I'm interested.
Taking a break from FE1, for the FE8 draft insteadI must be the only person here who liked the name "Jet Grind Radio" more. Not that Set is bad, but IMO "Grind" has more to do with the game.
It might be topical, but there's no excusing the fact that it just didn't flow when saying it. Why else would they have changed back when making JSRF?
Long live Cinematech. FC:0259-0435-4987The gind wa only for the NA release and that was due to copyright issues, with some other station for something having Jet Set to its name. They changed it back to set in Future because they no longer had to worry about it and that was the original name of the game. Though yeah Grind actually has more to do with the game.
Jet Set Radio flows better off the tongue, so I really do prefer that.
Taking a break from FE1, for the FE8 draft insteadWell, especially when K yells, "Jet Set Radio-o-o-o-o-o-o!"
