Jet Set Radio HD Remains Faithful to Dreamcast Original, With a Few Changes

At GDC last week, we got a chance to play Jet Set Radio again, this time on an Xbox 360. The high-definition update of the Dreamcast classic is coming to the PC, PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade this summer, looking lovely and (mostly) faithfully intact.

For the most part, Jet Set Radio plays as it did in the year 2000. Players control one of 15 inline skaters as they skate, jump and grind their way through the cel-shaded cities of Tokyo-to and Grind City. They'll have run-ins with rival gangs of skaters and excessive force of the local police, who won't hesitate to go after a few graffiti kids with helicopters and missiles.

Control-wise, Jet Set Radio has at least one improvement. Players can now control the game's camera with the right analog stick on the PS3 or 360, making the process of outrunning cops and tagging your turf a little easier.

One camera quirk I wouldn't mind seeing Sega fix before summer is the double duty done by a controller's left trigger, which spray paints and re-centers the camera behind the player.

Jet Set Radio's controls occasionally feel a bit sluggish, but their almost identical to the Dreamcast original, for better or worse. It just may take some time to adjust.

Visually, the HD take on Jet Set Radio looks fantastic. Frame rates can reach 60 FPS under the right conditions and everything looks super sharp, even if some textures look a touch blocky at this unfinished stage.

On the soundtrack front, it appears that much of the memorable music from the original Jet Set Radio will return. It seems Sega's efforts are on retaining the original list of tracks from the Japanese release, with some of the North America and Europe tracks (Rob Zombie's "Dragula" and Jurassic 5's "Improvise") not making the cut.

Jet Set Radio HD looks to be a mostly faithful update of the Dreamcast original, with a few improvements and a few cuts. It's a great trip down memory lane at the very least and one of the downloadable releases we're looking forward to most this year.

Jet Set Radio comes back in September, for $9.99

The Jet Set Radio update will be released starting September 11, when the PS3 version will be available for PlayStation Plus users. The wider PS3 network release will occur September 18, for $9.99.

The XBLA and Steam versions will follow on September 19 for the same price. The Vita version will arrive October 16, which is officially not "summer" as originally announced. The console and PC versions can just barely claim a summer release, but October is past the equinox. We're not upset – just wanted to point out that we're onto you, Sega.

Interesting. I notice they mention an early release for PS+. Could that mean free? Or are they just doing what they did with Journey? Either way it should be great because I never got into this series and I've heard great, great things. I'm looking forward to checking it out and $10 seem like a great price.

I also had no idea it was coming to the Vita as well. Hopefully it will be a one time download on PSN and us Vita owners will get both versions.

I can't even complete the tutorial. I don't know if it's the lack of sensitivity with the sticks but the character controls like shit. It also doesn't help that I have no idea what to do with some of the tutorials. I had check check YouTube to see where exactly they wanted me to side grind on a wall surface. What's the point of a goddam tutorial?!?
