Well will you look at this. Someone has grabbed a screenshot that clearly shows Jet Set Radio as a game that is on Xbox LIVE Arcade.
If this is real it's a great boon for those who haven't played Jet Set Radio. Getting the game would not only let you play one of the best games on the Dreamcast in HD, but also could show SEGA that the gaming community would support another Jet Set game. How do I know we would? Because I will personally hold a gun to every gamer's head until they buy it.
Of course I have probably jumped the gun a bit here. I'm already planning to threaten the lives of millions over the re-release of a game based on a shot that could be fake.

Yoyo is in JSR. He's a later character, though.
I would kill for this on PSN. Especially if they work in online somehow. I think this game had a multiplayer mode...
JSR and Crazy Taxi and Sonic Adventure are good, but if Power Stone 1 or 2 are announced and playable on Partnernet, I am not above sneaking into the home of someone who owns a dev 360, killing them, and wearing their skin to play it.
easily one of the best, most important games ever made. I wish to god Smilebit would resurrect this series.
In other words, you think it should only be on WiiWare.
For any who don't know about Jet Set Radio (Shame on you >:O)... This video pretty much sums up how awesome it is:

Wasn't Smilebit dissolved into Amusement Vision and some internal Sega team? AV went on to make the fantastic F-Zero GX so things could be worse... But the original team was still split up.
Though I'd give it a chance if they brought Hideki Naganuma back for the music along with a team passionate about the original.
Why headdesk?
yes, Smilebit was dissolved a long long time ago, but that doesn't mean the key people on the team can't get back together for another game. a lot of them are still at sega. Naganuma did the music for Sonic DS.
Jet Set Radiooooooooo
Guess there's no need to change then. Gimme new Wii version, Sega. C'mon, you know you want to.
It says it's a demo
Because it's the demo version.
Or has that already happened?
Anyway JSRF was one of the original Xbox biggest hits. Maybe a new one is in the works for 360? I mean, there's still an unnannounced exclusive game for 360 that's supposidly a return to a known series...
For PSN users, I wouldn't be too worried if I were you. Unless things have changed drastically since this leaked memo.

I has forgotten about that rumor. A new Jet Set game would be amazing, as long as they didn't muck it up with Natal.
Hey Sega, while you're at it: RELEASE TOY COMMANDER AS WELL PLEASE.
