New Jet Set Radio Trailer and Contest

Sega just released a new trailer for Jet Set Radio, this teaser more than trailer gets us some in-game footage and all too familiar settings.

The remake is slated for Summer, 2012 on digital release for all formats (except Wii) and here's what the Sega folk has to say about this HD Dreamcast Remake:

As many of you may have guessed, Jet Set Radio is the next Dreamcast game to hit digital release.
DJ Professor K, Beat, Gum, and all the GGs are taking to the streets in this upgraded HD version of Jet Set Radio, which sees players vying for control of the futuristic Tokyo-to by marking their turf with graffiti tagged across walls, billboards, and rival gang members. Jet Set Radio will be coming to XBLA, PSN, and Windows PC Digital Download this summer.
If you’re unfamiliar with the story, Jet Set Radio lets players join the GGs, an up-and-coming street gang in the futuristic city of Tokyo-to, fighting for the right to self-expression against an overbearing, corporate-controlled police force. Rolling and leaping through crowded urban environments on magnetically driven inline skates, players take control of gang leader Beat and his growing posse of deviant artists as they steal turf from the local gangs by covering the city with colorful graffiti. Guided by Professor K, DJ for the hottest pirate broadcast in town – “Jet Set Radio” – the GGs will ultimately uncover the sinister plot hatched by the controlling powers of Tokyo-to.

 

There is also a nifty competition to get your art on the game so check it out HERE. The contest will end its submission deadline at 10 of March so hurry up!
