About Jet set radio switch
Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is an immensely conflicting outing that capitalizes on nostalgia by drawing water from the same punk-as-hell city tap as Jet Set Radio. Sometimes the cup runs over. Others, rusted pipes bleed into the water, poisoning the experience.Jet Set Radio casts a low-poly shadow over any game about street culture or graffiti—cel-shaded or not—and Bomb Rush Cyberfunk deserves better than getting labeled as an imitator and getting hocked in some back alley tourist trap with knockoff Gucci bags and Rolex watches. But despite its effort to tag its own turf, Bomb Rush ends up retreading old ground and painting over tags left by the Dreamcast classic and reigning king of the microgenre.Captured on Nintendo Switch (Docked)For those unaware, Jet Set Radio is a cult classic from Sega’s ill-fated but fondly-remembered Dreamcast console, which launched in 1999. US-based readers may know it as Jet Grind Radio, though later versions (like the one found on Steam today) go by its original Japanese title. The cult classic has gone on to influence counterculture and gaming alike thanks to its distinct sense of style and singular understanding of Japanese street culture in the late '90s and early 2000s.Its influence is so pervasive that even Nintendo took a few cues from its immutable style in creating Splatoon. Aside from PC, it's available to play on modern platforms only via the soon-to-close Xbox 360 marketplace, and it's never graced a Nintendo platform before (minus the GBA de-make), so the mere existence of a game like Bomb Rush on Switch is really exciting because, aside from a few minor differences, Jet Set Radio and Bomb Rush Cyberfunk share near-identical gameplay loops.You’re part of a crew of graffiti artists (or writers) whose goal is to tag the city’s various boroughs with your crew’s graffiti and in doing so, become the ruler of the streets. Spraying your tag involves a series of directional prompts and successfully tagging something might alert the police to your presence. Dealing with the cops is tricky; they’re corrupt and trigger-happy. Eager to take down you and your crew of vandals, they will use lethal force, so you’ll need to outrun them.Captured on Nintendo Switch (Docked)Bomb Rush introduces a few innovations to the formula, though nothing that re-invents the urethane wheel. You’re no longer locked to skates; instead you’re given the choice between BMX bikes, skateboards, and classic skates. And, aside from a few story moments, you can play as any of the characters in the Bomb Rush Crew.The other major innovation here is tagging; instead of following the game’s directional prompts, you’re able to decide from a few directions to press that will result in different images to throw up on the
