I cannot believe how this perfected the Jet Set Radio formula (both games of which, are all time favorites) but also introduced so many new mechanics that make this experience feel extremely fresh and unique. The Jet Set games are not without their faults-- they can be unforgiving in their controls, brutal missions, and janky as hell, but this game addresses that and improves upon it
I was blown away at the new combo system, the phone, the boosting, those funny little robots you hi-five to get unlockables, the fact you NEVER LOSE MOMENTUM, OR RUN OUT OF PAINT, OR TAKE FALL DAMAGE, the fact you can TAKE OFF THE SKATES/BOARD/BIKE. It's all a GAME CHANGER.
They nailed the soundtrack and style, while also making it modernized. The ongoing plot kept me hooked in the way that Jet Set Radio's plots never had (and is a lot more dynamic than those stories to).
Potentially one of the best games I've ever played, absolutely a new favorite. I was (and still am) very excited for the upcoming Jet Set Radio 3, and I have no doubt in my mind that this game taking off the way it did with fans is the reason Sega brought it back. But, I honestly am having a hard time understanding how a new Jet Set Radio will ever get better than this.
