Jet Set Radio HD

It's Official: Jet Set Radio Is Coming to XBLA This Summer
Written Tuesday, February 28, 2012 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

That teaser trailer released last week really was for Jet Set Radio HD for the Xbox Live Arcade then (OK. It was completely obvious that it was) as SEGA has today made it official, announcing the game's impending launch for current-gen consoles this summer.

The 2000 Dreamcast classic, famed for it's (at the time) groundbreaking cel-shaded art style and frantic skating and wall-tagging gameplay. DJ Professor K, Beat, Gum and all of the GGs will be hitting the streets of future Tokyo once more, as you race around tagging the streets to mark your turf.

Jet Set Radio for XBLA will have the same genre-blending soundtrack and striking art-style intact, albeit with an HD makeover, while SEGA is holding a contest that will enable fans to create eighteen pieces of digital graffiti art that'll be seen in the game. You can enter the competition at www.sega.com/jsrcontest, where you'll also find full details on how to enter, as well as terms, rules and so on. Winners will receive a prize pack which includes a solar-powered Rukus bluetooth headset.

Exact dates and pricing for Jet Set Radio has yet to be confirmed, with only a summer 2012 release window currently announced. Check out the first three Jet Set Radio HD screens below.

Great stuff. Lets hope for a better collection of DC titles then that shitty half arsed collections disc they brought out.

Great game.

I'm not going to get this one, I think it would be nostalgia talking and that soon wears off. It's great to see them actually releasing games people want, rather than bass fishing etc :)!

I'd love to see powerstone, pso and shenmue reboots, they spent a lot of time in my dc...

And agreed with @#6! Powerstone 1+2, Shenmue1+2 and Sonic Adventure 2 are all needed as those were all top quality games.

Cool, loved this game back on my 'cast. I wonder how well it has aged, considering the cel-shading. :)

@6: Powerstone would indeed be nice as well.

Sweet. Now let's see some more Sega CD or Saturn love. Flink, the original Silpheed, the Panzer series, Nights, etc. Regarding DC though, does anyone else think that Samba De Amigo would make a perfect Kinect game?

The graphics hold up so well. I do think in general that with games from the PS2/DC/GC/XBox era cel-shaded ones hold up much better today. Zelda Wind Waker still looks gorgeous, as do JSR and JSR:F. Cannot wait to play this game again!

Now if we can just get Shenmue 1+2.... please SEGA!

Maybe this will peak interest again and we'll get a 3rd game.
I never owned a dreamcast but I LOVED Jet Set Radio Future!!!

So looking forward to this....

Is this the US version with the extra level? Though I'm more concerned about the Japanese voices being there. The English dub wasn't good.

Now we need Power Stone, Sonic Adventure 2, Chu Chu Rocket, and Space Channel 5 Part 1 and It'll almost be like I own a digital Dreamcast.

I hope they make a 2nd collection disc too. I got the first one as a gift, but I'd probably buy a 2nd one on my own.

There's also Shenmue, but I feel like that's never going to happen. Likewise with Seaman (which is seemingly coming to 3DS; If an XBLA one came, it'd probably require Kinect, making it useless to me anyway).

I also secretly want Sonic Shuffle. Even if it wasn't that good. Just so I can live the Dream(cast).

YEEEEEEEESSSSS!!!!! Finally SEGA you are getting it. Keep releasing the great stuff from your back catalogue and show the young uns that never really got to experience these great titles what games were like back in the DC era and before. I loved this game but i really really loved future, that was awesome. I now want Revenge of Death Adder as i never ever played it :(

I just wish Konami and Capcom would start releasing some stuff from their back catalogues. Games like Cadillacs v Dinosaurs and Alien v Predator would be amazing. They (to my kniwledge) were never released on a home console and after watching a longplay of CvD id love it.

Also could Data East release Captain America and the Avengers Please :3

Why does Sega take so long to release stuff on XBLA? Sonic Adventure was announced like 2 years before it actually hit XBLA, and they did nothing with the game. It was a straight port.

Woot there is still hope for Shenmue 3 because of this heres how -
Jet set radio was rumoured to be remade for xbla along with shenmue,
If shenmue is remade on xbla then and does well, why not make shenmue 3?

This was easily my favorite Dreamcast game. Though I do wonder with it not being "Jet Grind Radio" does that mean the American levels/music will be absent?

Awesome news. Hopefully it'll only be 800 points. And I totally agree that the Panzer Dragoon series should be next to come to XBLA.

On a somewhat related note, I'm still waiting for Daytona to go on sale for 400 points.

@22 Nintendo is collaborating with Sega on a 3DS Seaman

I still have this game on my Dreamcast....and I'd probably enjoy it more if it weren't for the Rokkaku Police. I'd prefer some Saturn titles, particularly NiGHTS, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shining Force III ( ALL 3 parts, since we originally only got part 1 in the US ), Sonic Jam and Magic Knight Rayearth

The thing with shenmue is I think the game mechanics will seem dated now as it's been done so many times since, and improved on...BUT

I need to kick Lan Di's arse, he killed my dad and got away with it! It's easily the most memorable story in gaming history for me, I want to finish it. Was inches away from fighting him on top of the yellow building, but it was just a taunt. Come on Suzuki, let us see how this tale ends....

I'm literally signing into my 360 daily waiting for this release but sadly "summer release" was what Radiant Silvergun got and that was bumped for almost 6months before release :|

I can see SEGA doing a few more important DC re-releases soon as they cancelled lots of projects etc with new(ish) IP's (some like conduit not soon enough frankly) so games like this they know are going to make money much easier.

Number 1 game of all time :D hell I want a psvita now I know it's coming to that (if they did a JSR version of it I'd buy it in a heartbeat)
