Hi there,

I have this TF2 server hosting this map I map which basically is a port of the Jet set radio future garage level so you can mess around with other players and explore the level, the lighting isn't very good, the whole thing is sort of a hack and I haven't had time to improve it much, but the last thing I did was adding Shibuya Terminal to it! its still a work in progress ;)

Red team spawns on Shibuya terminal and blue team in the garage, try getting into every street, one teleports back and forth between Shibuya and the garage.

Oh and there's a secret tape which will lead you to DJ Professor K radio station, hint its in the garage, find it and touch it to get teleported to the easter egg!

I never got to experience the original Jet Grind Radio on the Dreamcast, which is just one of the many under-rated and undiscovered classics from that era. Attempts to experience the game through emulation have ended in failure.

But, I did get to experience the sequel: Jet Set Radio Future.

"In futuristic Tokyo, a group of teenage skaters (groups collectively referred to as Rudies) called the GGs vie for control of the many districts of Tokyo against many rival groups. A mega corporate enterprise (the Rokkaku Group) has taken over the many districts of the city and their leader is now the mayor of Tokyo. It is oppressing the people, taking away freedom of speech and expression, and is forcing other gang members to give up their territory using the corrupt police force of Tokyo.

The game begins with the player in control of a character called Yoyo, who has to complete a set of basic training exercise to prove himself worthy of joining the GGs. After these challenges are completed, the game is interrupted by a pirate radio broadcast by 'DJ Professor K' who fills the player in on the turmoil within Tokyo. After this cutscene, the player is released into Tokyo itself, where they pursue their mission to 'bury Tokyo in graffiti' and fight the authoritarian Rokkaku Police."


Christmas, 2003: My brother and I had just finished opening our gifts from our mother when her then-boyfriend-turned-husband-now-second-ex went into her room and returned with a large wrapped box with both of our names on it. As soon as the paper was off my jaw dropped, brother screamed and the camera flash went off.

It was a brand new XBOX, with two controllers and four games on two disks – a Star Wars/Tetris dual pack, and the SEGA bundle pack. However, we were not allowed to play the T-Rated games as I was only seven and brother was only three. I wouldn't experience JSRF for another two-three years.

Skip forward to Summer, 2006. I was ten, brother just turned seven. We were bored out of our minds and had just finished losing the last of our hundred-some lives in PacMan World 2 in the SECOND LAST LEVEL. We were frustrated, but still wanted to play video games. The weather was crap and the cable was out, so the XBOX was all we had.

"Hey, let's play this one," I said, holding up the SEGA bundle pack. The cover of the game I wanted to play was facing towards me.

"Nah, I don't wanna race cars no more," brother whined.

I noticed my mistake, and turned the pack around, "No, let's play the other one!"

He looked at it, and of course he pointed out the rating to me. Being the older and superior older sister with my superior older sister logic ("I'm a pre-teen now, I can handle it!") I popped in the disk, grabbed the primary controller, and selected the game.

Blah blah blah, after all the screens and such, plus a little brother panic attack later (he saw the no-graffiti sign and freaked) we were hit with The Concept of Love.

Man, were we ever, in more ways than one.

Our eyes were glued to the screen as the characters skated all over the place: grinding, jumping, skating… And the music, amazing. The Concept of Love remains my favorite song to this day and always brings me back to the day I decided to play a game we were forbidden to play, not like mom really cared.

We played, and I went head-over-heels for Yoyo and Beat (jeez, young fangirl love), while bro couldn't get his eyes off of Gum's cleavage or Rhyth's bra. As for characters we played as, I tended to stick with the girls while bro would fight tooth-and-nail to play as my two favorite guys (more in multi-player mode, because he would pick either of them to piss me off when I decided I wanted to play as them). The game was fantastic and for us it posed enough of a challenge to keep us occupied for hours (tagging the cops, running from Hayashi, the Golden Rhinos, the Fortified Residential Zone…). Our weekends at mom's were well spent trying to stop Rokkaku's reign.

That game managed to teach me to stay away from drugs. Man, that final level was trippy! What the hell did they take when they designed that final level? First time I ever had a "WTFH?!" moment when playing a game.  Also the first and only time I ever shouted that out loud. Cue grounding for swearing and shouting.

Now, it's been six years since I first played it, and nearly five since I last played the game. Hopefully, that will be changing soon as I am planning on getting a credit card specifically to purchase the game from eBay (my friend is supplying the XBOX). I can't wait to hold that controller in my hands again, boot it up and hear the music once again.

Happy 10th, Jet Set Radio Future. Still a great game, still a great experience. We don't want, we NEED another sequel.

Hey!

Here's a little something so you can view some of the JSRF characters from all angles.

Use the WASD keys or arrows to move the camera and use your mouse to aim with the camera, SHIFT key to move faster.
Dear fellow JSRF fans, for I am now able to extract almost every single model/texture of the game, what would you like me to post renders of?

Characters? which ones?
Levels? Objects?

Let me know, Cheers!

:iconmmdprogramvocaloid: is the artist of this ask account if you guys didn't know. But recently, SHE'S BEEN BANNED. :iconnoooooplz:

yeah, apparently it's because her journal told the whole world she was twelve and she also seemed to favor mature content.  She's currently handling it with a ban appeal message, let's hope they reply ;_;

Reason why I'm doing this? 'Cause she's my friend, simple as that. I'm not if her account is going to come back or not, but I'm crossing my fingers for this. She asked me to do this so her watchers and friends that might be wondering where in the good heavens she went won't freak out at the banned thing. For now, she only has me and :iconmoonphyr: that she is in touch with on deviantart. If your a watcher and you want to tell her something, just comment or tell me and I'll send it to her, or maybe she'll see it on here herself. Haha, that girl's a worrywart and she says that she'll be back (hopefully). MMD just won't make a new account to avoid the ban, soooooo yeah, she's waiting for a reply.

If you are a watcher or a friend of hers, she said she loves you all.

Really MMD, you really had to make me do this? XD
Ah wells~ Keep asking and tagging everyone~

(Also, :iconask-cube-jsrf: , Gum and my kid isn't going to be called gumball! :iconfrageplz: We're not having kids! D:< AND NO, even if we did, you and yo-yo are not taking care of him/ her XD)

Guess who accepted my date? :iconawwyeahplz: :iconask-gum-jsrf:

*AHEM* anyways, I'm trying to make this page a bit more fun by doing a random event for halloween

TOTALLY NOT TAKEN FROM SHILIN LOL
Pretty much, you guys just say which member/ person in JSRF you want me to draw in ANY COSTUME AT ALL.

I don't care if your asking me to dress as Veloce, black rock shooter, a pumpkin, WHATEVER. As long as it's a costume, don't tell me to draw someone naked or as kaito .__. You can even ask me to draw the members with whacked up laundry mix-ups or me and gum in Hope's and Vanille's clothing, I DON'T CARE ;A;

Hopefully I can answer all questions and this stuff, since I'm getting my tablet back tomorrow LOL, you guys can start asking now 8D

BTW, if you see :iconask-yoyo-jsrf: and :iconask-cube-jsrf: , tell them I won't let them see the light of day tomorrow (:

yeah, I know, bizarre title *_*
But it sums up what happened yesterday.

Went something like:

*Me just derping around the garage, chilling downstairs*
Then all of the sudden I just hear my best friend, gum shouting from upstairs.

Gum: Yo! Beat! The couch is on top of potts! Get up quick!!!!!

Beat: What the flying hell are you talking about?!? *goes up stairs*
(And I'm all thinking: silly gum, she probably screwed up her words and meant that potts is sitting on the couch again)

But then noooo, I instead see gum desperately trying to pick up the couch because potts was squished beneath it .___.

No, I don't mean that he was hiding under there or something, I MEAN THE POOR DUDE WAS STUCK UNDERNEATH IT. Half of his ass was under the couch and his front paws and head was only visible. >_>

Then we managed to pick up one side of the couch and that was done :iconclappingplz:

We didn't dare to tell yo-yo about that little episode. >_> Potts was fine after that, but man that guy's as dumb as Hayashi.
I'll never live a peaceful life ;_;

Then again if it's peaceful then what's the point of being a rudie? 8D

Did you guys ever had bizarre experiences with your dog/ pet before? O_o

(We're still trying to ask combo why he hates goldfishes so much XD)
