I finally completed this game last night, after Months of neglect. Bloody fantastic!

Anyhoo, what's next for the game? The cliffhanger suggests a sequel, but am I meant to play through the game again?

If I go through it again, do I keep my skills? I never managed to get the 'dual weapons' skill - and still don't know how to get it. Help?

Also, I still haven't uncovered Number I on the list, or is this intentional?


p.s. I was sooo tempted to Judo Chop everyone on the boat at the end :D

I've been replaying JSRF recently - I love cel-shaded graphics. It gave XIII a style, a panache, a gusto, a verve, a zest, a brio and a flair so supreme!!

-ahem-

I'll be buying the sequel. And will someone tell SEGA (have they died) to make another Jet Set Radio, Crazy Taxi and Rez.

I have to agree, although I love the style of the game. It's not something I'd consider replayable (Indeed, I haven't went back to it) but for the week I was playing it, I enjoyed every moment. The ending was obvious from the start, but most of the enjoyment is from the journey, not the conclusion.

I picked it up at launch, but proceeded to neglect it due to all the better Live games available.

Maybe we should do one of those online petitions to get them to do a sequel, although it probably won't work...

It was because of its cel-shading many people decided not to get it.

Damn assholes - it's a quality game.

Yah, tis a shame about the poor sales of XIII. I managed to get it half price just a few weeks after its release. I thought the single player was great though, it was just the mutliplayer that was a letdown really...

Awww, I had a feeling that would happen too!

Shame, tis such a stylish game. Bloody 'casual gamers' buying all the EA dross rather than proper, quality games.

I'm saddened.

There isn't going to be a sequel due to poor sales.
