Story:Jet Set Radio HD is the latest remaster in a string of Dreamcast "hits" to see new life on download platforms, but Sega has been insistent that they've learned its lessons. The publisher has emphasized how hard it's trying to get things right this time, and for many, it couldn't have chosen a better game.
Jet Set Radio was part of Sega's onslaught of new properties with an emphasis on flash and style during the second wave of Dreamcast software, but it might be one of the more obscure. It's a game that almost everyone has heard of, but I think few have actually played. This was remedied somewhat with 2002's Xbox sequel Jet Set Radio Future. Unlike Sonic Adventure or the arcade hit Crazy Taxi, Jet Set Radio HD is the chance for many to finally play a game they've only heard about.
Nostalgia has the side effect of high expectations though, and Jet Set Radio HD just can't meet them. While the flash and style of Jet Set Radio HD remains untouched and unvarnished by a dozen years of progress, the rest of it can't stand up to scrutiny. Squirrely controls, camera catastrophes, and nonsensical level design make Jet Set Radio HD a better memory than game.Show more

I love Jet Set Radio Future and don't know if it's possible to get a PC port as that was an original Xbox exclusive. Jet Set Radio HD was very close to experience it for the longest time. However Sega killed and the delisted the game off Steam meaning we have no modern and accessible way to play and support our beloved JSR franchise. I would love both JSR and JSRF to be on GOG so I get to experience them again. Or at least I hope the first step is to bring back JSR HD to be back play since a PC port already existed.
This is a game unlike any other. It was a smooth as butter game that served as a testament to the resilience of counterculture and the beauty and creativity of cultural resistance.
Unfortunately, the game was sadly, unfairly and very unceremoniously killed off very recently, first on Xbox 360 in 2023, and then on Steam on 9 Dec 2024.

This game is an all-time SEGA great. It's fun, albeit massively surpassed by it's sequel, reeks of style and certified Funky Fresh Beats by our very own Funky Uncle, Hideki Naganuma. However, this classic game is pretty much unavailable on every platform after SEGA mysteriously delisted it back in October 2024. A re-release on GOG would be awesome, and maybe expose more people to this wonderful franchise.
JSRHD is a great remaster of a great game but recently SEGA has delisted it from steam. Their reasons havent been said but Im under the impression that its because theyre currently working on working on new remasters for the entire sega classic collection (JSR, Crazy Taxi, etc) which makes some sense? but not really at the same time. i dont see why the two versions cant coexist and id love to see JSRHD come to GOG as a new way to legally obtain it
Este é meu jogo favorito do Dreamcast. Eu perdi a conta de horas que passei jogando este jogo, e de quantas vezes eu zerei. Além de mim, minha prima me assistia jogando, e adorava o jogo também. Sempre achei o design diferente, uma arte legal e bonita. As trilhas sonoras deste jogo são sensacionais, vale muito apena possuir um disco de vinil ou um cd com as musicas deste jogo. A gameplay é curiosamante divertida, misturando patinação com graffiti, a ideia de patinar por partes de Shibuya, fazendo manobras radicais e competir com grupos rivais do graffiti enquanto escapa da policia e de um delegado maluco, é bem legal.
Infelizmente, recentimente este jogo foi removido da loja da Steam no final de 2024, a unica plataforma onde tinhamos acesso ao jogo, felizmente quem ja possuia o jogo, ainda pode joga-lo. Seria maravilhoso ter acesso a este classio e sua sequencia (Jet Set Radio Future) pela GOG.
Back in 2023 I had really gotten into skating and wondered if I could find an arcade like skating game with some good features and a little bit of rebellion. I had found only one game that fit the description and that was Jet Set Radio. Being able to play this game in HD would be awesome especially since Sega isn’t releasing it anywhere else and it recently got taken off of steam. Having this game on GOG would mean wonders to me.
I feel like this game transcends it's form and acts as a time capsule of games that came in the early 2000s and represents a strong contendor for preservation. It's controls and visual style still hold up to this very day and they make for a rare experience that will have you smiling the entire time. This game being preserved would mean that future admirers of niche street culture and video games can still experience this in a modern form factor.
Playing this game in 2019 with no "old game nostalgia factor", when technology and game development was way further from what was in 2000, I found this game one of my most favorite ones ever. Noone among my peers could get why I was so obsessed with the game and its music. But it was, and still is a fact, that noone has ever made a game like this. Yes, there were games like Lethal League, Hover, the newest one - Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, but they were all heavily inspired by this unrepeatable classic, which to me will always feel better, than any of the spiritual successors that already exist or are yet to be released. Even the already confirmed remake ain't it, no matter how glad I've been to see the announcement.
I love how passionate the devs were about the dominating culture among youth back then, and what a cool music taste and vision they must've had to find the right people for the OST and pick some rare gems from compilation albums, that later became known just because of the game's success, not vice versa. The gameplay might be a bit quirky nowadays, but totally playable and fun, it's possible to beat the game on 100% and have a blast. I've spent up to 55 hours in the game, because I really enjoyed skating around, drawing graffities, doing tricks while escaping the law. Locations are quite detailed and fun to explore, in spite of the fact that the game isn't open-world.
This is gonna be a very long text if I talk about everything I loved in JSR, the only thing I didn't like is that Sega removed it from stores instead of ANY feedback on those 24 years of begging for JSRF PC port. Jet Set Radio really is a good old game, I only wish it gained more recognition

Pokémon LeafGreenPokémon LeafGreen Version and Pokémon FireRed Version are a pair of core series Generation III games that are set in the Kanto region. They were released in Japan on January 29, 2004, in North America on September 9, 2004, in Australia on September 23, 2004 and in Europe on October 1, 2004.
As the first remakes in the Pokémon franchise, the games revisit the original pair of Pokémon games, Pokémon Red and Green Versions, and so feature all of the characters, plot elements, and challenges of them, but with several important upgrades to bring them up to speed with other Generation III games.
The Game Boy Advance Wireless Adapter was initially included with the games when they were first released, eliminating the need for Game Link Cables when trading between the two games (and later Pokémon Emerald Version). In later copies, it was sold separately.
FireRed and LeafGreen went on to become the second best-selling games of the Game Boy Advance, only behind Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire Versions. They also received Nintendo's Player's Choice awards.Action Fantasy Science fiction Kids
