Sega wants classic franchise reboots to show ‘edginess and a rebellious mind-set’

  If you’re looking for a new Jet Set Radio style game, make sure to check out the recently released indie project Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. They did a great job of capturing the JSR spirit while modernizing the controls and gameplay. store.steampowered.com/…/Bomb_Rush_Cyberfunk/

    Absolutely. It makes me sad that there aren’t many posts about this awesome game (at least on Lemmy; there were at least like three subreddits before I left the other site).

    They even got Hideki Naganuma (who did the music for the first two JSR games) to do some music for BRC.

    It’s a fantastic game and deserves some recognition.

  So they’re trying to redo the 'tude era.

      Unironically yes. Sonic 1 had 'tude: it was always part of the IP.

    Sega were going mad with ideas during the Dreamcast era, so I welcome it back with open arms.

      WWE writing notes I think is half the problem.

      Simple, just do what AEW is doing.

      Just, please more women’s matches than that.

  I can't wait to play more JSRF. Haven't grabbed Bomb Rush Cyberfunk yet but super happy to see both official and third party solutions for my fix

  Ahh yes, nothing is quite as edgy and avant garde as a classic

  I hope the Crazy Taxi reboot will be good, the original game is such a trip.

    I feel like it is hard to mess up the formula as long as it doesn’t get too “modern gaming”. I was playing my Dreamcast over Thanksgiving and really wanting a new Crazy Taxi and JSR so I was pumped at first when I saw this, but I’ve stopped believing in the hype for games a decade ago.

  If we've learned anything from the past, just give The Super Monkey Ball Monkey a gun

    They should just replace all the reboot characters with Shadow the Hedgehog

  I don’t care why they do it. I won’t say no to more Golden Axe.
