Hi peeps.
I just recently bought jet set radio future and i have to say, i'm disappointed. Everyone gave it amazing reviews so i splashed out and got it and it is just crap. I felt like a big baby playing on one of those disney platform games. The graphics aren't anything to shout about and the gameplay and objectives are s**t. Spraying graffitti on walls??? I dunno wot all the fuss about. I am a die hard xbox fan but this game is s**t.

Cool. Sounds like there's loads of stuff to do. I loved the Dreamcast JSR, so I thought I'd buy JSRF as my 1st XBOX game.

Ahh, thanks. I wondered why a few levels had challange completed and others didn't have anything. Now I know.

The cassettes open up the "street challenges" in the GG's notebook.
Five challenges per stage.
When each stage's street challenges are completed, the time trial mode is unlocked for that stage - that's the thumbs-up symbol when you talk to Roboboy.

Oh yeah, I've picked up a few of those cassette things. What do they actually do?
And all this talk of JSRF is making me want to play it. I'll have a good long session at it tonight. As soon as my parents stop watchin TV!

Yeah, I know where you mean. I think I fell down there once.
I've been searching on top of all the skyscrapers when all the time it's just right near the beginning. Now you know how I've clocked up 40 hours!

I remember where the cassette is for the Skyscraper. If you have been to the Pharoho head, there is a mesh net under that area and the start area. If you go down there then its some where down there.

I've finished the story mode, and done all the challenges except the "Skyscraper Disrict" and "Fortified Residential Zone" because I can't find the bloomin' cassette tapes!
*Any ideas where they are?*
I've got a couple of Jet ratings on the time trials but I haven't unlocked any new characters yet.

What are you talking about? JSRF is one amazing game. Give it time and it will grow on you.
Marmite music? I know exactly what you mean. Two tracks early on in the game stink, someone around here said it reminded them of cats screeching, which is spot on! The music gets better as the game progresses in my opinion, becoming more westernised. I've had the game a few weeks but strangly I have only been playing it for 10 hours (it seams like way longer). Im just about to go up against the Noise Tanks, you know, a spray their back bit.
Every thing about the game is original and fresh. I love it, as good as the first in my opinion, which is VERY good.

Woah 40 hours, how far you got with the game. I have about 25 hours on the clock with Story mode and ALL the challenges complete, also unlocked 4 characters from doing the trials.
