I love how aggressively fun this game is. It's almost like the game isn't trying to impress you, it's just having fun on it's own, and you get to be apart of it
this is the best definition of Jet Set Radio.
Honestly with how modern games and media tries so hard to pander, it's refreshing to see old stuff like this that just expresses itself genuinely.
*a part
I'm hoping bomb rush cyberpunk hits the same
@@nohface4544 More like Cyberfunk. Groove is in the soul.
WE ARE SO FUCKING BACK
YOU DAMN RIGHT!
HELLS YEAH
2 crazy facts about this game:
1. The average age for the developers who made this game were only around 25 and had very little experience making any games
2. Smilebit the developers upped the colors using the better cpu on the Dreamcast so it could never look better on ps2
yeah i love this game it was my childhood.
That's pretty cool facts. That just makes the game more good.
the lack of experience can be felt. however the setting, ost and visuals are stellar
@@MrRagnarxx not really it never really lack any experience at All imo the game is still pretty good though not just for it's soundtrack, visuals, and artstyle 😐
Sounds similar to the situation that DMA design was in, the creators of Lemmings and the original Grand Theft Autos!
A bunch of young people getting settled in with their passions for game, art, and audio design.
For the original Grand Theft Auto they managed make an entire hour long studio quality soundtrack with 1996, 1997 hardware, software, all of the technical limitations, and all of their own personal limitations as well.
Somewhere in Asia, there is a city that cannot be found on any map called "Tokyo-To," but everyone just calls it Tokyo. The two hottest things on the streets of Tokyo-To are the punks wearing magnetically driven in-line skates powered by newly developed "netrium" batteries, and "Jet Set Radio," a pirate radio station manned by the DJ "Professor K," that plays nothing but non-stop, hard-core music. Those street punks have been named "Rudies" by the people of Tokyo-To. They roam the streets and cover the city with their personal graffiti, claiming that it is their way of expressing themselves to the world. However, ever since the Metropolitan Government and the financial conglomerate, the Rokkaku Group, combined their efforts to co-found the "21st Century Project," the streets of Tokyo-To have never been the same again. Police crackdowns on the Rudies have become more severe, and Captain Onishima is more anxious than ever to put them behind bars. The streets of Tokyo-To are ready to explode...
... Wait, is this game based on Air Gear or the other way around!?
air gear was inspired by this
I just got hyped reading this.
That's called the Harajuku scene.
So wait some where in Pokemon line there's a town where Pokemon is called Pokemon generation,but Pokemon called it Pokemon town
As a hip-hop producer, I have to say that this work is of some top-class artist and would've been equally fire even if it had been an entirely separate commercial release on its own.

JET SET RADIOOOOO!!!!
yknow now that i think about it, id like it if hideki made albums that werent entierly videogame releases sometimes lol
If the soundtrack is any indicator of how good the game is. Then i'm already a fan
The music fits the game perfectly. I remember playing this on my (at the time new) Dreamcast. Good times.
Get it for steam, i dont even have a gamepad and i can play it easily for PC
TheHopporto I never even knew this game was on steam. FUCKING THANK YOU SO MUCH
bookplate Saves in it are all bugged the fuck out. I dont know if theres a fix, but it seems to put me back at the tutorial whenever i load a new save.
play the game disphthit
The art and gameplay of this game blew my 12 year old mind. Back in the freakin' day
Um did I NOT mention the music? Wtf, the music too--was unlike anything I'd heard and got onto my Ipod of course!!
ua-cam.com/video/bpYwjHDkaqk/v-deo.html They got one of the original composers of JSR, Hideki Naganuma.
Agreed. The music is awesome and holds up so well.
@@BrendaDelam just found out this game thanks to you. Be blessed !
I played this first time on pc in maybe 2013. It still blew me away how good and fun game this was! What, after 13-14 years? This music oozes the artistic coolnes of late 90's, early 2000. This kind of funky and "rebellious" electric&hip hop music is still very underground.

Give me a break Give me a break lol
jay kj You're a saint. :)
jay kj Appreciate it man. You're the hero UA-cam deserves.
jay kj Thank you!
Obviously the entire soundtrack is iconic, but....decades later Humming the Bassline still just pops into my head randomly from time to time.
mm mm mm mm mm
HA
Yup same... Also the track That's Enough.
Humming the bassline is like my mind's theme song.
Your mind must be funky. My mind's theme song changes everyday.
Its been coming in and out of my mind over the years.. Just bought a Dreamcast recently, I have Jet Set Radio from day 1 - the nostalgia is unreal!!

Spot-on description!
This game and it’s soundtrack are just pure fun
It’s a game you can tell was made with love and not just the thought of making money. Games like those are always golden.
I've never played this game before but I'm digging the soundtrack!
im not sure if it's free on steam still but definitely worth checkin out
Tokiko Niko Just checked it out on steam and it's going to $8 so I'm not sure😕
ah bummer used to be free. if still available on ps3 or ps vita, the price is definitely worth, even if it's an older game. idk about playing it on pc unless you hook up a controller.
Tokiko Niko Ill check it out for the ps3 then thanks for the info! It looks like a fun game, reminds me of sonic the hedgehog
it's suuuuper fun :) one of the most original games i've ever played~
Over two decades later and I’m still listening to this all the time. It’s perfect for “head down and get some work done” kind of music. Phenomenal.
This whole game is a true work of art. It's 20 years fucking old and everything about it is still funky phresh.
My dream videogame is:
- Devil May Cry-style gameplay (comboing enemies with flashy moves)
- Splatoon/Jet Set Radio aesthetics
- Music by Hideki Naganuma
- Cool modern city setting with slight sci-fi elements
EDIT: HI FI RUSH BAYBEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
The concept alone already sounds like a stylish masterpiece
i got you
@@user-eb2vd1hr8i do you tho
Wait Splatoon and Jet Set Radio have completely different aesthetics tho
You should try No More Heroes. It's a little rough but still fun and entertaining
ROCK THAT SHIT, HOMIE.
People who love JSRF, JSR & it's music are the coolest people around.
Foreal
Yeah
Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiig.
Yes I am.
true dat
An absolute work of art.
Sega need to breathe new life into this series as soon as possible.
A Jet Set Radio 3 and JSRF remastered is exactly what they NEED to do.
They are planning it, just a few years more...
they can't remaster JSRF as they lost the source code or smth
@@ambre1840 Its also in legal hell between Saga and MS.
There is the studio responsible for lethal league, making a spiritual successor, look real good, and have the guy from jsr making the soundtrack.
I always think that this kind of sega franchises (like Sonic adventure 3, or crazy taxi 4) are not forgotten, they are being reserved to be exclusives for the next sega console, whenever it is released
I have a very vivid memory of running for the bus as a kid with Sneakman blazing on my headphones xD good times
Sneakman is the perfect song for that too lol
First console I ever owned was a Dreamcast, and my two favorite games on there were crazy taxi and this... I can't believe we're getting remakes of both!
WE WON!!!!
For some reason this entire OST makes me want to dance with roller skates like I'm waiting to be picked up on the main menu of a game.
WE ARE BACK LETS GOOOOOOO
My god this game is just the best. Recently broke out my old Dreamcast, this game still flows so well! Cel-shading ensures that it hasn't aged too badly either for a game developed in the fucking 90's! Man that console was the shit, such a shame it didn't go further considering the hardware it was packing.
I'm waiting for the Microsoft & SEGA Xbox Dreamcast lol
@@kiddmode You could just play it on your came cube, put it in your Wii or Wii U and bust out the game cube controller. Or use your PC.
As others had said, you can use emulation. I have a low spec PC but Redream runs fine with a bit of tweaking
They're still making games for it actually and there is a huge fanbase and collector's have big love for the console.
me wishing sega didn't blow their money on add ons and a complicated console:
revisiting this soundtrack after like 20 years and its STILL a banger!!!
if only the radios actually played these types of songs XD
nah, they play justin bieber and other fuckboys, cause that's cool nowadays
But justin bieber music is useful it can scare fucking bears
All thank to peoples to believe in FCC. They fuck up everything they touch and sooo many song that should of been on the air because they were too "loud and offensive to the massive". They says it was only about Bandwidth of the station and we all knew it was a lies.
Эxodus You must not be listening to the right modern music then.
Its not like music suddenly got shit in 2000
But they only play Kidz Bop "okay for kids" remixes. They messed up GANGNAM STYLE!
Gum is pretty much poster-girl for JSR and JSRF.
I always preferred Rhyth & Jazz!
HadeesHeart Yo-Yo!
HadeesHeart the 1 quote of my childhood is "ja-hazz got the ball!" (from vs mode)
It's all about Gum, Mew, and Cube!
"This is great"
*Beat as mascot*
"But I like this better"
*Gum as mascot*
That Jet Set Radio phase never left, so let's keep it goin'!
This and the Katamari series are probably the trippiest games ever.
I'm awful at this game, but slowly learning it, and having fun a lot with the music and both gameplay
Never been too much getting into skating games as much as Jet Set Radio
It's very unique in it's own artstyle and characteristics, especially when it comes to Professor K.
Loved it.
I love how in this game AND somic rush, there is a medley at the end as a little recap of sorts. I love it :)
Most of the songs in JSR and Sonic Rush were made by Hideki Naganuma. Just search it on google and you'll probably found a wiki page about him that have other musics from him.
Yan Pinto
I already knew about him but thanks for (accidentally) reminding me to search for other games he's worked on!
AxeToday No problem
I recorded this soundtrack directly to my mini-disc player from my Dreamcast. I set the DC up to play through my stereo and played all the tracks from the music test in the setup menu. I just let each song play then switched tracks shortly after it repeated so I got all the radio tuning noise as a transition. I played the shit out of that disc.
surely one of the funkiest game osts ever created. it has no meaning. it has no message. it is just pure fun and has tons of soul. this game would not have needed anything else to make is complete and the classic it is today. I still have my copy on the dreamcast. Anyone else make their custom tags just big fat cocks? or just me?
Nope. Me too.
@Gen Lmao
I'm not sure it has no meaning or message, the game as a whole has very strong anarchist vibes and a general disregard for authority, and the soundtrack fits right into that mood being so eclectic and messy.
And also one of the voice samples literally goes "Viva la revolución!" lol
I'd say it's a great urban anti-fascist type of soundtrack but I'd also consider it chill and funky enough to avoid alienating non-political people unlike, say, certain types of punk.
@@NaCk210 I'm glad people is still talking about this game nowadays. Big fan of this
💀 I did that too when I had the game as a kid 💀
The composer, Hideki Nagamura, is now attached to a new indie parkour game inspired my Mirror's Edge and Jet Set Radio, HOVER: THE REVOLT OF GAMERS.
A bit too close to JSR for me...
Craig Cooper late 1 month,
But he's also my childhood anime composer,Air Gear.
helmiboboy WHAT that's lit
@@helmiboboy thanks for mentioning that, I tried to watch Air Gear years earlier but didn't get hooked. now that being said, I won't miss the OST for sure, it's next on my playlist!
@@helmiboboy He composed the music for air gear?
I played it on my Dreamcast, what an experience
These funk and hip hop VIBES are great and help me get in a good mood when doing homework or drawing
I'm no gamer but I enjoyed sooooo much this game when I was kid! The music and the dynamics were phenomenal
One of the few games that actually had a significant impact on the music industry
Don't care how long its been, this soundtrack is still amazing as all hell, the entire JSR franchise needs more love
Clearly, the same people behind Sonic Rush and Sonic Rush Adventure's OSTs.
jet set radio was best sonic
+IneCapa Not really. The Main Composer for Jet Set Radio and Jet Set Radio Future, Hideki Naganuma, composed most of the soundtrack for Sonic Rush. Sonic Rush Adventure was composed by Tomoya Ohtani and Mariko Nanba. Many composers joined in on the Jet Set Radio series. For Example, Richard Jacques , composer of Everybod Jump Around, Bokfresh and What About The Future?, composed for Sonic R, Sonic 3D Blast (Saturn Ver.), Sonic Chronicles, Sonic and the Black Knight, Sonic Generations, Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal, Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric and Sonic and All-Stars Racing Transformed.
+IneCapa Now that I think about it they are really alike! ^^
+IneCapa I knew I recognized this style.
interestingly enough he also made the soundtrack for Air Gear. That's how i got here in the first place
just got the free steam package with jet set radio, cant wait to play *-*
+Nussram Fhakir ITS SOOO FUN.Also...WARNING: DO NOT USE A KEYBOARD.
+Debating Corner it's playable on keyboard. just harder.
+Côme Thiburs Blah its playable but horrendous imho. Especially with spraying. the rest is really straight forward but its not worth the pain imho. On controller though, much more comfortable.
i know, just cant beat the golden rhinos
+Debating Corner Actually, i find playing this game with keyboard really confortable.

I use this for black ops 3 and pso
Duuude. If I heard a car bumpin JGR, I'd automatically want to be their friend.
Playing rocket league and being lucio in overwatch
Can confirm, this OST made me a better Lucio player.
Come back to this every few months still one of the greatest OSTs
The only game i re-bought for my ps3
I got it for PC.
Lord Absolute Bagel i actually did that for two towers and okami
I had it for the original Xbox till my mom decided one in perfect condition wouldn't sell for much and gave it away for free. :/ Atleast I still got Halo 2 somwhere...
+Otaku The Anon I'm sorry but your mother is an ass. Why would she sell or give it away in the first place? Yard Sale?
To listen to a whole OST without becoming bored or disappointed. I have energetic feels. This is beautiful ;-;
I still call this Jet Grind Radio.
***** No it's set
+Just a WARLORD ... *sigh*
Kaisogen fite me
+Just a WARLORD Nah. It was originally JGR tho.
Kaisogen HAHAHAHAHA idiot
it was jet just a name change for UK
As if it wasn't obvious enough, the anime/manga Air Gear was heavily influenced/inspired by Jet Set Radio. This is also apparent during the more relaxed/comedic parts of the anime where a similar vibe of music to this soundtrack is used.
Amazing manga btw, oh great! Is on another level
The music in Air Gear was actually partially or fully ( can't remember ) by Hideki Naganuma, the same man who did the soundtrack for both Jet Set Radio games!
@@roejogan5212 skankfunk did do it yeah
I'm glad I found this. best soundtrack in history
The whispering lady in Sweet Soul Brother has quite the ASMR quality to her voice.
its astonishing to me that such a famous and revolutionary ost is less than 50 minutes long, never realized that until just now
Back when games were still unique and not just carbon copies of each other
The original North American release of this game was called "Jet Grind Radio" (Dreamcast, 2000). Following its release, license discrepancies developed with three of the game's- incidentally- most popular tracks.
The remake "Jet Set Radio" has an altered track list, and these songs do not appear on its soundtrack.
The original was called Jet Set Radio, and was only released as Jet Grind Radio in America.
I said "the original North American release."
But I have Jet SET Radio and it has Miller Ball Breakers which isn't on here
Actually, the original is Jet SET Radio not Jet Grind Radio.
craZe - 狂気のいけ well, that's not true either. The game was first released as Jet Grind Radio in Japan, then in north America as Jet Set Radio with two extra levels. The one that's completely different was Jet Set Radio Future where these songs did not appear
"Humming the Bassline" just leaves me in a deep state of nostalgia.. I wish we had more of this game
Have to listen the OST on UA-cam now because apparently it’s all of a sudden region locked on AM and Spotify
Would you stop playing with that radio lord, I'm trying to get some sleep!
Ah good times
Just to be precise it's "Would you stop playing with that radio of your's? I'm trying to get some sleep!"
To be even more precise: "Would you stop playing with that radio of yours? I'm trying to get to sleep!"
Argh! auto spelling thing got me there XD
I hear "Would you stop playing with that radio yall, im trying to get some sleep"!
i thought it was love not yours
Nearly all games of the Dreamcast was like travel to an amazing future. Jet Set Radio was no exception at all.
Can stuff like this just start coming back.
first, we need to assemble the team - music composers, graphic designers and everyone else and MAKE SURE they have a clear understanding of what the game’s gonna feel like to play.
next, we gotta end all this war & bullshit - we stop looking at our phones and hoping that one group of people kills the other group of people, and then we’ll have space for art like this.
and lastly, we make it known that we want, no, NEED games like this - quit buying every fat cry, call of booty, battlefuck, and scream to our publisher overlords that we need new ideas, not the same shit!
and then we might have something close to the gaming golden age that circled about the 90’s to 00’s.
I think there's an indie game that's directly inspired by Jet Set Radio that's coming out soon.
@@Dzzy123 yeah it’s called Lineage 2
You just had to be there. I didn't know when I picked this game up from the Sega Dreamcast 14 years ago that it would change video games forever. Cel-shading wasn't a thing until Jet Set executed it perfectly. The graffiti/hip-hop/Shibuya culture revered in FULL effect here. This soundtrack was Tony Hawk 2 on acid (I'm an avid DDR player so I appreciate games with original soundtracks this fire). Nothing about this game was bad.
Who else prefers JSR over JSRF? For me there's no comparison, the original is my favourite by far 🙂
Man, if the Jet Set Radio series got more attention, there would be another game of it, but instead, we keep seeing some of the characters in Sega All Stars games.... *sighs*
Super smash Bros
you want another madden? whats that jet gret fradio? wtf is that? lets give em a new madden that shit totally isnt dry enough we can milk it even more im pretty sure...

Hands down one of the all time greatest video game soundtracks ever produced.
One of the greatest video game soundtracks ever made. You simply don't hear OST's like this anymore. Give me this anyday over the overly orchestrated forgetful compositions you hear in many games today. The Dreamcast was amazing because of games like this and Sega just being Sega. Thanks for the upload.
I can name a few games:
Sonic CD (JP/EU)
TWEWY
Wipeout (every game)
@@striga314 Also Katamari
@@striga314 TWEWY has one of the best soundtracks of any videogame franchise ever, in my opinion. It's so, so good.
Splatoon soundtracks sound kinda like this though.
If you don't mind rap. The MadWorld soundtrack is pretty good. It's a pretty cool game that was exclusive to the Wii. That sadly is being forgotten to time.
Entirely different vibe to this though. It is a lot more violent and edgy. Rather than just pure fun. Still good though. The game MadWorld. I guess the soundtrack as well.
Too...

I was in 2nd period and he was in 1st and we never met

is a killer track

My partner: I wonder what is she thinking..
Me: BETTER WATCH IT, COMIN' AT YA', THE FUNKY RHYTHM COMIN' AT YA'
Sweet Soul Brother is genuinely one of the best songs I've ever heard.
This was a majestic masterpiece.
Ever have one of those games or movies you've watched or played and it's like you've never even experienced it until UA-cam reminds you of it years later?
I don't know where else to post this so I'm going to share this here lmao
A kind of "fun fact" about JSR is that it only took around 10 months to complete. That's an incredible feat, no doubt, but here's the thing- The JSR you've most likely played and the one that was released on June 29th, 2000 are almost radically different games (a little bait-y, I know)
For one, there was no chapter 3. There were still the final stages (Explosion, Benten Burning, Fight or Flight, Behind the Mask and Final Groove) but the Cube and Combo storyline was not in the June 29th release.
Combo and Cube were still characters in the game but they were unlocked like everyone else and unlocked in the Shibuya and Benten districts respectively. Combo was actually unlocked after Shibuya GG making him the first character you get after Tab, who was originally Corn/Cone (both words are spelled the same in Japanese and both work as his name so it's a 50/50 chance it was either.)
Cube was unlocked after Benten Boogie. She was replaced by Mew/Bis in later releases. "Bisu" means screw in Japanese. If you were ever wondering what that screw on her back was for, that's why.
Speaking of Mew, she was originally unlocked in the _Kogane_ district after Kogane Circus.
Back to Cube tho. Originally, she wore a grey tee and a black, long sleeved undershirt with flames on it. She also wore denim jeans that were folded at the bottom. Kenji Ueda, the Jet Set Radio character designer and artist of the official art, never drew the US/EU design to my knowledge so the only official art of Cube is in her JP look.
I *assume* the new design was so she could be more inline with American fashion of the time post-Coin storyline.
They still kept Combo's Yen chain between releases instead of switching it out with an American dollar Sign.
Also, because there was no Cube and Combo storyline, there was no Coin.
Because the Cube and Combo storyline was added in for the US/EU releases, the stages are so much smaller and more enclosed compared to the other stages. They feel more like the early stages of Chapter 1.
Piranha also had a different name in this release. Originally she was Sugar.
Funny thing about Piranha, her and Combo switched challenges in the US/EU release- Combo got the race and Piranha got the half pipe tricks.
Piranha also has an interesting history with character themes.
Originally, she had O.K. House as her theme, then Yappie Feet, and then Bout the City in the HD release due to the song being removed.
On the topic of Deavid Soul, composers of Yappie Feet, and yes, "composers", Deavid Soul is a Japanese duo, not a single artist, originally had their song "Dunny Boy Williamson Show" in the June 29th release before having it removed and never being added back in, officially that is, I'm pretty sure there *are* mods that put it back in.
Dunny Boy Williamson Show was used in the Shibuya district and was originally Slate's theme, too, who was originally called Soda. He was called Soda again for JSRF.
I think all these name changes were made appeal to more angsty American counter culture. Names like Soda, Sugar, and Corn/Cone are subjectively less cool sounding than Slate, Piranha, and Tab.
Now about gameplay, the thing that easily needed the most changing. In the June 29th release, the Kogane and Benten tag stages are genuinely this close to being unbearable in my opinion. The AI sucks, with Poison Jam and The Noise Tanks just bumping into things and in the case of PJ, constantly falling into sewage. Funnily enough tho, The Love Shockers stage is pretty much completely unchanged between releases, so it makes me wonder why PJ and NT were given such weird AI.
Speaking of The Noise Tanks or just the Benten district in general, O.K. House was originally a Benten song, not a Shibuya one.
If you were wondering "Well if O.K. House wasn't a Shibuya song, what the first song in Love Trap?"
It was Dunny Boy Williamson Show.
Lastly, the cutscenes we're also changed, too. The first two cutscenes were unskippable and one of the biggest changes: *DJ PROFESSOR K* read the original ending cutscene's monologue instead of Combo. When I found this out I was *so* surprised, like an ungodly amount.
Aside from different VA's of course, that's all the changes I could think of.
I could talk about De La Jet Set Radio, a sort of patch of JSR only released in Japan before patches were really a thing, but that version is such a mess. Characters switch between Japanese and English names like every other piece of dialogue and I remember correctly, sometimes they used the Japanese voices, sometimes they used the English ones, again, a mess. A change I'm too sure about just because of my memory is that there was no radio in the garage in the June 26th version.
I guess another little factoid was that there was none of the Nu Metal tracks like Just Got Wicked in the Japanese version but I feel like that's pretty well known at this point. Another is that the game was changed to Jet _Grind_ Radio for the US release due to Jet Set already being Copyrighted. I love how on a lot of old JSR videos pre-HD release and to a lesser degree post, you still see people calling it Jet Grind Radio and JGR. That's so cool to me, it's like looking into an alternate dimension.
Jet Set Radio was officially released in America on October 31st, 2000, around 4 months after the original. It's kind of crazy how much they were able to fix and change between releases, but the cracks do show here and there like one of my favorites, "Go Grind City!" Instead of Go to Grind City.
Original Jet Set Radio, as much as I do find it charming, is the inferior version no doubt.
It feels kind of rushed in comparison to the American release of the game, which just feels more full and polished.
That's my two cents or I guess two dollars on this. I really want these to be more well known, especially considering how undocumented the June 29th release STILL is. Hell, I wouldn't know about of this if it were weren't for the sparse rumors I heard floaty around getting me intrigued enough to find the rom and play it on redream, an emulator for Dreamcast games.
If you want to go further down the JSR rabbit hole, I recommend checking out dedtoot and JavaFinch, two really cool people who have been able to uncover way more JSR content than I, a lazy hormonal teenage boy, could ever. Unused voices, unused songs, prototype footage, all super freaking cool.
There's also Japanese exclusive guidebooks for JSR and JSRF that have a lot of really cool character facts like ages, likes, dislikes, personalities, etc.
Only those character pages have been translated but there's a JSR Archives group working to translating those books.
There's also an American guidebook- the Sybex guidebook- that was found and uploaded, too.
The E3 prototype was found pretty recently too. The rom for that is floating around if you want to check that out and a cool guy called "Brobey", a prolific JSR speedrunner who even got the WR a few times, streamed it a while ago if the vod for that is still up. He streams other games of the late 90's toearly 2000', too, so check him out if you're interested in that.
So uh, yeah.

Here to remind you to watch this 3 weeks later because you can never get enough of this soundtrack!
Hideki naganuma is a beast.
I played this game when i was ablut 10 years old and literally every single one of these songs has been stuck in my head since then and they randomly plag in my head without my consent. 23 years man. Probably many more.
This game, it's aesthetic, it's music, so spectacular. Playing this as kids we were just enamored and wide-eyed.

So yeah, Hideki Naganuma did a great job with producing and curating the soundtrack, but you're missing HALF OF THE MUSIC when listening here or playing the "remaster" on Steam. And for a game that is thematically built on music, that's a huge bummer.
llore todo el album, y recordé cada misión en mi consola sega dreamcats !, uno de mis juegos favoritos ! el productor de estas fantásticas rolas! merece mis respetos.
That's Hideki Naganuma
