That's what I'm wondering. If it was remade for the PS2, it may be able to run at 60fps. If not, whatever.

Forgive the noob question, but what do you mean by RT being the real grind button?
I did a 197 trick combo in the tutorial and I only used RT once, right before I jumped on to the first rail to start the process. Am I doing something wrong?

You sure? That one looked like they were totally rebuilding everything in a new engine. I don't think it's emulated like this.
I guess I need to practice more. I start near the "wallride" billboard, jump on the rail going toward the stairs. Jump the gap, try to wallride the billboards near the cabs and... fail. :/
I'm not sure if the upcoming NiGHTS release is a port of the PS2 version, I just assumed it was. If it's looking like that isn't the case, then I have no clue. I haven't been paying attention.
I am sure that the PS2 release runs at 30, though, if that's what you meant.

does this game let you make custom Graffiti? that was one thing that was so awesome about the original. And by custom, I mean use your own Jpegs as oppossed to paint some shit in game.

You mean where is says "if you dash and jump while grinding then you'll do cool tricks" in the tutorial?
I think it's just poor wording and means if you dash to build momentum before jumping on to the rail to start a grind, then you'll do tricks when jumping during the grind (because you'll have enough speed).
I actually thought the same thing as you at first and started using RT all the time when jumping from grinds. But then I started to get the feeling it wasn't doing anything and went back to the tutorial and busted out that 197 combo without using RT at all. I became convinced it did nothing, then your post had me wondering again!

No, you can't use your own jpegs. It might be modded into the PC version at some point, however.

damn thats unfortunate....they should have made that an ability with the consoles being able to have pictures...and computers being computers.
before it was limited to having to upload it to the website then from there using it in game....but now we dont have that limitation. oh well
i forgot how fun it was trying to find those infinite grinds and then doing them.

I guess I'll definitely get the PC version then. Too many good comments about it.

OMG this game is now crashing every time I press start on the title screen. :/ Yes, I've rebooted and tried again ust in case.
Have you tried to verify cache?
Eh nm it's working again, weird.

In the Dreamcast version, after beating a stage Prof. K would come up and give you a spiel about the level you just beat, followed by a "Do you want to save?" message.
Here, "Do you want to save?" is removed and it just autosaves at those moments.

Aside from crashing once, the game ran a smooth 30fps with MSAA at 8. We even streamed it: http://www.twitch.tv/thebancast/b/332789159 (you might want to skip to mid-way just to see some video)
Okay people, let's figure this out.
Your custom tags should be located here:
X:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[Steam ID?]\205950\remote\save\0
Spray files have the same names as the DC original:
JETSET___SMA
JETSET___LAR
JETSET___XLA
So I found this Polish site that LOOKS like it's detailing the stored JSR custom spray format:
http://www.sega.private.pl/faqs/felieton_wlasne_grafitti_jet_set_radio.html
Am I crazy in thinking that the dude might be saying that the spray format is JPEG with different headers? I feel like I'm crazy but it would be nice to get confirmation.

That's pretty much what it says, from reading it with Google Translate.
I'll do some file comparisons tomorrow, but I'm sure somebody will have come up with it by then.
Edit: just quickly copy and pasting like the text says doesn't work. Maybe the file you download from the web, converted, is a .JPG, but the game itself makes the changes. More than I am capable of (at least at 4AM) would have to be looked into.
It probably can be done.
This, plus the hype coming back to the thread, makes me very happy.
Loving this on the PC and have also double dipped on the PS3. May even triple dip on the vita, depending on impressions. I've done my work Sega, you better bring JSRF.

Just downloaded the trial on 360. Yay for getting two gamer pics! <3
The game is as brilliant as I remember it to be all those years ago. It's aged really nicely, and the port seems great.
The only problem is I was set on getting it on the Vita but now I'm not sure. 360 or Vita? HAAAAAAAAAAAAALP GAF!

So yesterday I got to try the PS3 version of the demo, while it looked sharper and more vibrant, the performance was terrible. Not sure what it is, but the game kept stuttering, like freezing for a second with everything, it also affected music and gameplay. Is that meant to happen? The Vita version better not have this, or else no sale
I was hoping it would run smoothly without any technical problems.

since Dreamcast American jet grind radio players didnt get the Jurassic 5 improvise song playing during the Combo/Cube episode skits, what got replaced with it?

This was happening to me too.

We talked about this earlier in the thread. Seems to be an issue with fragmented harddrives. I'm playing on PS3 and not having any problems, but others had the same issues you are having.

Yeah. I would recommend any PS3 users having this problem delete the game and redownload it. There is a chance that the new download could behave differently.
I also came upon one oddity while playng the 360 version last night. I saw no framerate issues during that hour, however, when I pulled up my friends list at one point and scrolled through my friends list, the game's audio would stutter a little bit as it continued to play in the background. The faster I scrolled through my friends list, the more noticeable it became. Very strange problem, but it told me that for whatever reason this game is very sensitive to hard drive activity, because as I scroll my friends list, the gamer pics are being loaded in and out of memory quickly. I've never seen this be a problem with any other game, but this one must have something strange going on where it really doesn't like hard drive activity. Therefore, I would also suspect that anyone playing this game with a game downloading in the background might be experiencing issues in game as well, but not realize that is the cause.

There's also an iPhone and Android version.

SEGA doing the right thing and putting this on everything imaginable.
Started playing today on 360 - looks so good! The game's still balls hard though -- couldn't find the last two tags in the second level for a while, even with the map.
Also I think Naganuma was staring into my soul during the doco.

Yeah it's total garbage.
Reminds me of the achievements for Ecco the Dolphin XBLA.
http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/ecco-the-dolphin/achievements/
"Complete the game without dying more than 3 times."
It's like they made this achievement without ever actually playing the game. Ecco is a tough as balls game with a LOT of instant-deaths. The only way to get this achievement is by abusing the save/load feature in the XBLA port, which completely ruins the game in the process.
It's so freaking stupid.

Plays great for me. No stuttering, good controller support, clean visuals.
