Jet Set Radio (DC) Reviews

This is one of the first games I have ever seen where graffiti and vandalism is the objective. Skate through many parts of the city tagging up whatever you can whenever you can. With great cartoony graphics and a funny selection of sounds this title will be a hit with anyone into graffin. Just watch out that the police don’t get ya who ...  Read the complete review

Sega have always been trend setters. They started early in the arcades, and then continued setting trends in the console markets.

Armed with nothing more than a pair of Overdrive Magnetic-Motor Skating Shoes, numerous cans of spray paint and an imagination more vivid than Jackson Pollock’s, it’s your job as gang leader of the GGs to make your mark on the city and get control of it. The catch? There’s four other gangs vying for supremacy and they’re ...  Read the complete review

I will start bt saying that this is quite probably the most original game ever. A brilliant mix of city graffiti and aggressive skating make this surperbly playable. For a time anyway. The problem is that the tricks are done in an almost automated fashion. You press the button and the character will do a grind. Combo masters need not apply as ...  Read the complete review

Jet Set Radio is one the biggest titles on the DreamCast this year. As far as its level of aggressive skating goes, it’s OK. The technical names of grinds and grabs are as accurate as possible. But that’s about its only major selling point. However there are many major flaws in its ability to rein-act street skating. I know ...  Read the complete review

As such, they set out to produce something both visually and stylistically unusual. And they succeeded. The streets of Tokyo-to are inhabited by skaters known as ...  Read the complete review

In Jet Set Radio, you play a whacked out kid who's completely torqued off about the system. It seems that the city of Tokyoto is not terribly kid-friendly and wants to keep things neat and pretty. You, the skater punk, figure that the only way to rebel is with your inline skates and a couple of cans of Krylon. The game is presented ...  Read the complete review

Jet Set Radio This game looks really cool, its like Tony hawks but on roller blades, and instead of collecting things, you have to graffiti in certain places, you can only hold a certain amount of spray cans and each tag takes a certain amount of cans. Also the bigger the tag, the longer it takes to do! So you pick a character, skate ...  Read the complete review
