Tune into Jet Set Radio

New details have emerged about Jet Set Radio HD. Originally for the Dreamcast, this version of the game will feature 70% of the original Dreamcast music and the extra levels seen in the US version of the game. You’ll also be able to control the camera with the right analogue stick but oddly you won’t be able to share tags online like you could over SegaNet in the original. Expect to be able to download it for consoles and PC soon. Related: SEGA Mega Drive Ultimate Collection review, Sega Mega Drive Classics Collection review
