Yes and 20 mins later after playing the game seeing versum hill instantly reminded me of dogenzaka hill and brink terminal obviously reminds me of shibuya terminal. I got the absolute chills and I started getting nostalgia goosebumps followed up with me screaming internally. Something that I've never felt since when I was just a happy go lucky kid on the original xbox with that good good copy of jsrf. Honestly I felt like I was 10 again while playing. Happiest moment I've ever had
I like the secrets being in the vending machines, it's fun to check and they add score to your combo. Also, shine was meant to be unlocked over time since she uses the dances you unlock over the course of the game.
SEGA slept on this franchise for 20 years. I dont even want another jet set radio; it's Bomb rush cyberfunk for me all the way! I love the work Team reptile did on this one and I hope to see more of New Amsterdam in the near future! Can you dig it?
I really really hope team reptile makes a sequel to it like they did with lethal league, I’m sure they will considering how successful it has been. But who knows, clearly they love to innovate with each title they release, it’s anyone’s guess what they’ll make next
@@itstowknee3138 4 months later but here's the answer So there's actually 2 JSR games being worked on, one is a F2P live service game and another one is a single player remake of the first game but at the same time being a completely different game, think about it like Halo infinite, the multiplayer is free but is a separate program that you can get without buying the main game
in combat, the fastest and imo most fun way of disposing of enemies is by doing a move, and then jumping right after, which will launch all enemies around you into the sky, after which you can spray them with a piece of graffitti which instantly knocks them out
Seriously, knowing that trick alone turns combat from an obnoxious slog into one of the most fun combo elements in the game, and something really special.
I like this anthology universe kinda thing. Let's be real, this just IS JSR3. I love that it's in a new setting with a new cast. Sets up the idea that the whole world is like this. We've seen Tokyo, now we've seen Amsterdam, if there's ever another one, hopefully we'll see another part of this universe.
The game is evolving every day. At least on PC, the mods are going crazy. There's already multiplayer, score battle tournaments against other players, goon-boosting off billboards (ok this ones a glitch lmao), loads of custom characters from Candyman to Sonic. Custom music, people are discovering how to figure out custom LEVELS, movement mods, so much good stuff already in LESS THAN A MONTH. I'm so glad to be a part of the Bomb Rush community. come hang out at jakes broh
Bomb rush felt like coming home if that makes any sense Something something love concept It’s been sick to see so much love for JSR due to Team Reptile making a banger game. Really good analysis, keep it coming ✌️
All i know is, Jet Set Radio Future was a game that i played endlessly. Id pick it up again every five years and be surprised how much time has passed when i finish playing. When I played Cyberfunk, i was over ten hours in when i realized how long i was inmersed in the game. I went and personally thanked the devs on discord for giving us a new home.
As someone who’s been looking forward to this game for awhile and is familiar with a lot of the artist (Hideki Naganuma, Bx’treme, and my boi 2Mello) it’s awesome seeing their work used in a spiritual successor to Jet Set while also being it’s own unique thing and I love this game so far
As somebody who has never even heard of jet set radio before playing bomb rush, it has got to be one of my favourite games I’ve played in a while. Everything just feels so groovy and stylish, the story was way better than I thought it would be, and the gameplay and music were in my opinion superb. If your on the fence about getting this game, you should definitely get it.
Really good video. Really happy to finally see someone praising the story for its nice undertones and easily digestable but fairly satisfying story beats. I do agree with the critiques about the cutscenes being a bit static tho, i wish they had more action to them. Like when dj cyber pulls up in his sick ride its really fun because of how cool its animations are.
I’ve been waiting for this game since 2020 and I finally picked it up on the Switch last weekend. I love this game so much!! Team Reptile has built so much on top of JSR/JSRF and I hope they make another with even more mechanics, assets, and level design. Thanks for the video!
yet another mark haha banger. really great analysis of a really great game. really loved your point about how games that pay homage to older titles often struggle to do well because of the insurmountable expectations set by fans of the older game- and how the truly great games differentiate themselves just enough and come up with something new from the inspiration. really insightful video, my notifications for you are now ON🙏🙏
Honestly so damn good that Sega finally remembered they have other IPs other than Sonic and are making another JSR game finally after over 20 years, but Bomb Rush will definitely still be up there as one of the best JSR-styled games.
Sega waited 20 years denying fans any hope, then a spiritual successor comes out and proves extreme sports games are still fun and financially viable and now Sega wants their fans back? Fuck em, they didn't take any risks at all despite being a way bigger company, they don't deserve our money for completely ignoring us for 20 years
@@nahman3836I feel the same way about Skate. Some companies will forget about game franchises just because they don't think it will make much money anymore. But once they see it can make money still, then they hop back on it instantly. It's so annoying. I miss when more games had love and effort put into them. So many companies just see these games as dollar signs now.
Well, they're not adding more maps, but at the very least they are adding features that should've been in the game at the start and not need mods to put them in, like markers on your map to tell you where Taxi Signs and Toilet Stalls are, more controls for your tunes like shuffle and looping music, etc. However these are steps in the right direction. Maybe if we're lucky, Team Reptile will add some form of multiplayer like the mods have done.
Its an underrated game with a very niche audience. I think the only way for it to get half the success it deserves is to make it available in Game Pass after fixing some of the bugs and maybe adding some minor QoL additions. Im sure JSR3 would be released if this becomes more popular.
Yes good idea let's continue keeping one of the best games obscure and hidden. I think you just posted because you wanted am excuse to use the word "plebs"
I love exploring spaces in a chill way, thinking a bit about where lines go, testing them a bit more seriously, and finally taking on a challenge. JSRF did a bit of this, but it feels like those challenges you unlock at the END of the game should become available in a space right after exploring it. These spaces also don't seem to get as inherently tedious to navigate as they sometimes do in JSRF, mainly talking about dropping into pits and getting poor respawns. (You can abuse those at times) It can be fine, take the final boss in JSRF, on your third time going up, you're SO much smoother than the 1st, and even if it's mostly boring trial-and-error, it feels good. Until the boss bugs out and makes you do like 3 more laps, but that aside. Similarly to my point about those post-game challenges, would've been great to have more than 50% of the characters before post-game. When you dealt with Poison Jam, I'd just make the character available if you also did the Rokkaku-dai Heights challenges.
As a big jet set radio future fan i was hype for this but also a bit cautious because they could definitely mess this up. I gotta say the devs blew my expectations away. This is a perfect successor to the franchise, don't hesitate to buy this one
for a moment there I was worried Future was going to be forgotten but I'm glad I was wrong on that when talking about character control differences how Bombrush is quite the balance between both Jet Set Radios
I feel like the combat is greatly misunderstood. if you jump after a trick, it knocks surrounding enemies into the air, which opens them up to be tagged. after being tagged, they're defeated instantly, so the combat becomes more about grouping enemies and crowd control.
Fantastic analysis on Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. This game is everything I'd hoped it would be, just effortlessly fun and mechanically satisfying. And that soundtrack is sublime and just overtook Tears Of The Kingdom and Final Fantasy XVI as my favorite of the year.
I always thought of BRC as Jet Set Radio: New Generation. After hearing that Sega has no money to spend on JSR, I figured it was a disappointment. But either way, BRC is a little piece of the game we knew, and I’m proud to have said piece recently…
Idk why but this doesnt have the replay ability that JSR/JSRF does. With JSRF im more than happy to replay the same again. JSR you can replay story with new unlocks. BRC is fun and I enjoyed it so much, even with mods, but it was like 1 and done for me.
It was just missing the soul of JSR, the style and graffiti was highly neglected while Bomb Rush basically copied and expanded on what Jet Set did really well
@@thace622 you described it perfectly, the mechanics was cool i played it twice but it felt soulless, everyone felt like a npc even our player, it felt like you were roaming in the lobby, i never discussed that game, but now that you mention it, it was kinda empty
yeah, I bought hover and it was really lacking in everything that made jet set radio special, the controls were bare bones and over all there wasn't really anything to do content wise. like...literally nothing. you could level up but there was no real incetive to do so and like I said before the game mechanics and control system itself wasn't good enough to keep you playing on it's own merit.
yep, Hover was poorly received. From my own experience with half the game; mechanics were decent, liked the way it handled multiplayer, but missions/quests sucked in general, forgetable music, generic style, and there was little to do on each map. Also the way it handled collectibles and inventory was bad, and felt intentionally designed to accomodate some scummy monetization system post-launch if the game did well.. a thing that actually happened to a bunch of games around the time of Hover's release.
I wanted to love this game as a JSRF fan but it has so many issues that I cannot look over. It looks worse visually than JSRF despite being developed for modern systems. The lighting and effects are worse. The levels are larger they're empty with few pedestrians, cars, and no destructible objects. The controls haven't improved much compared to JSRF. It has the same floaty feel when you jump and sometimes I miss landing on rails. Happens in both games, so BRC is not an improvement in this regard. The trick system is a nice addition but it doesn't have depth and is nowhere near as rewarding as doing tricks in THPS or SSX. You just mash the button and that gets old pretty quick. I liked turning on the rails though. Combat is pretty bad which can be said for the JSR and JSRF but in those games at least it was coherent with the rest of the game. You push the cops and tag them with paint and that's pretty much it. I also liked how cops slowed you down and hung on you, which made the encounters a bit more fun. Here the combat is underdeveloped and boring. The story and the characters are not very interesting and I would prefer Professor K's ramblings over cutscenes in BRC. I don't want to be overly critical of BRC because I can see the passion they put into this project but it feels undeveloped in a lot of ways and the best things are straight copy from JSR.
No man, i loved the game, but you can't say it outgrew its roots. JSRF was way longer, had more content, more caracters, endgame content, chalenges, and soul than this one. It's a fan service game, a great one, but so short, so empty when you truly look at it, yeah three styles but no real gameplay differences, JSRF characters had stats that impacted your gameplay, and it was fun, deep, and rewarding to unlock one, here all have same stats, make no differnce and are pale copies of JSRF characters man, Yoyo being Red in every point apart from the moment he has his red machine head, Bel is gum, Thrice is Clutch, man i could go on for every one of them. Even the levels are pale copies ! in the same order, but having less than JSRF. No, it didn't outgrew nothing, it was just a fun small experience to give us a glimpse at what we could have gotten if SEGA didn't sit on such an awesome franchise.
its 50% off right now but i think ill wait a year or whenever til its like 75% off i had jet grind and jetset on dreamcast and the 1st xbox, and i beat em but they were pretty annoying and these levels dont look that cool to me, maybe if it had more cool night levels, ill watch some more videos to see if it changes my mind before the sales over
The ending was really annoying though. Having Felix come back fully and just getting rid of Red completely sort of threw away the whole theme that DJ Cyber really made clear: You gotta make peace with your past self to become your future self. Red could have made peace with the dead Felix and Faux and still been himself. Red should have become his own person since he literally had his own signature tag, which is personal to him. That part sucked a lot
@@ivanalexandrinmatala3362 but the soul of the game just isnt there. at all. It could be the best playing game of all time, it would still feel like a hollow shell of JSRF.
@@libidinousbear4563I really like how you worded this. Bomb rush mechanically is a better game, but Jet set radio just has a feeling to it that can't be replicated
@@libidinousbear4563 Huge disagree. One of the only passion projects where you can see so much personality of the actual game and not a straight rip. I can very much distinguish BRC from JSR and in a positive way.
Thanks so much for watching! Did you get to play Bomb Rush Cyberfunk?
completed last week loved it. Enjoyed it more than JSR. This needs to be on Game Pass.

Great review. I really appreciate your mechanics-focused comparisons with the previous games, it’s much deeper than most of the reviews for this game.
If you jump after a trick while fighting the police you can lift them into the air to tag them which will instantly defeat them.
Would really like a sequel with character creation
If you do an attack and jump with the right timing you can instantly just one shot the cops bro.

Love the game but if i was to nitpic i wish the crew unlockables ment more to the story as a crew instead of focused on very select few characters.

@@ivanalexandrinmatala3362 but the soul of the game just isnt there. at all. It could be the best playing game of all time, it would still feel like a hollow shell of JSRF.
@@libidinousbear4563I really like how you worded this. Bomb rush mechanically is a better game, but Jet set radio just has a feeling to it that can't be replicated
@@libidinousbear4563 Huge disagree. One of the only passion projects where you can see so much personality of the actual game and not a straight rip. I can very much distinguish BRC from JSR and in a positive way.
