"Microsoft is so determained to make you love it's Xbox that it's prepared to shave its scalp and paint itself puce. In a manner of speaking.
Get this - as if the absurdly cheap, horse-sized console wasn't already a bargain, the firm will shortly be giving away two free games with every single Xbox.
The so-called sega bundle will include a console plus copies of Jet Set Radio Future and Sega GT2002 - for no extra cost"
Great news! Hopefully this will encourage sales for Microsofts dying baby.

it would have made more sense if Microsoft relesed Halo as one of the two games (i.e scrap the Sega idea) them two games don't appeal to me at all.
JetSet Radio is a skating game set in the future, a cel shaded Tokyo where gangs rules the streets with thier graffiti.
It is 100 billion miles away from Tony Hawks, it is not another Xtreme sports clone. Its much more. More like a platform adventure on skates, you have to tags the streets, deal with rival gangs and police all while enjoying the music provided by tokyos underground radio station, JetSetRadio.
A Sega game through and through, this second instalement improves in many ways over the superb Dreamcast original. That said, some people just don't "get" it, a bit too strange, styalised and different for them to really enjoy. Others like myself and Nomad love the series because they are so playable and original. Not really a mainstream game so it'll be interesting to see how it holds up in the bundle, but deffinitly a cult classic.

Well I was hoping for something unique you could tell me about the game...
Addictive, Fun, Challenging , Immerisve, Stylish, Funky - that enough maverick?
So what's JSRF like, then?
I don’t know if it’s the same offer but Dixons are giving away Conflict Desert Storm and Turok Evolution with the Xbox.
how old are you Tom?
JSRF is a great game, Sega GT looks quite good in my opinion....
JSRF is and excellent freebie. Unfortunatly Sega GT 2002 isn't looking to be much better than the old DC game. But Sega are definatly forgiven as they are giving so much excellent support to the X-Box. :-)
