If you're a fan of Jet Set Radio (especially Jet Set Radio Future) then this is a must buy.

If you're not a fan of JSR then this is a bit of a harder purchase. It has great movement and a combo system that really encourages you to move around the environment as best you can while adding onto a point multiplier. The art style is a very faithful recreation of classic Dreamcast era games and the music is absolutely fantastic. The reason that this game is a hard purchase if you're not already in with JSR is due to the content and its price tag. There isn't a lot of content in this game to justify $40. The game really only has its main story mode as content and that doesn't last all too long unless you tag every spot in every area before moving on. There isn't some sort of challenge or score attack mode to play once you complete the main story. It just doesn't feels like its enough content to justify the price tag. Don't get me wrong, I had a lot of fun with the game but if this is your first introduction to this style of game (Jet Set Radio, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, etc.) then I'd say wait for a sale, because $30 feels like a more reasonable price. Maybe down the line the game will receive some content patches that fixes this issue but for now I wouldn't say its super worth it for people not in the know.

TL;DR: Amazing and faithful recreation of Jet Set Radio. If you haven't played JSR and are unsure you'd like it then wait for a sale. Not a lot of content to justify the price tag, but a fun experience nonetheless
