    Jet Grind Radio for Dreamcast very addictive

    I picked this lil gem up because I had heard it was a fun game.
    Not only is it fun but Is a sight beyond belief when using a VGA box hooked up to a HD ready widescreen.
    While it is probably very beatable by a true gamer , I found this action packed and VERY hard to shut off
    Im kind of stuck now as it appears I need to be a lot better at the sticks to proceed but getting to the point Im at now was a feat even the help of a 12 year old son and his friend ( and we all know how easy these things are for them)

    The art in this game is fantastic. The characters look phenomenal.

    I've only played it for 5 minutes or so. It looks fun but I worry about games that play "on rails". Is the whole game like that? -that is, lacking freedom to explore?

      Its hard to explain but you have to do some "grinding" as they say but mainly your moving so fast you really dont care how you get to where your going.
      The game is definately bent on speed but you can always go mess around

        So, they do a good job of hiding the "rails" then?

        That's excellent. I will certainly pick this one up once I've survived this Christmas season. Thanks for the info!!

          This game is AWESOME. Another sure-fire winner for the Dreamcast.

          Yes, you do have to master "grinding" on the rails - often this is how you pick up paint cans.

          There is a time limit, but there is a good deal of exploration involved. If you're one of those people who wants to find every nook and cranny, you'll end up playing the game (or at least the individual levels) several times over.

          The artwork is stunning and the controls are dead-on. Another AAA title from Sega.

            I rented this one and really enjoyed it. The look and feel is superb, but I got to a point in the game which was really difficult for me, which is when you have to fight the opposing gangs by "tagging" them.

            That is really difficult.

              Thats where I got stuck as well, Tagging the 3 guys in the Nightime downtown skywalk place, at the same time the other option is Getting Jet with the 3 levels put together, Ive finish with 2.35 left and only get half the rating so Im basically done for awhile,
              Ill pick it back up some other day
