| * Wall of Beef: They did replace the "motion control dat joystick" with a button press, but if they left it in and tried to keep the rest of it the same it would have been a train wreck. The game is a million times fast, with gigantic environments and lots to do. Its hard to stop and motion control that joystick while shooting down a drain pipe at 70 mph over a toxic ocean, while dudes are shooting guns at you. | * Wall of Beef: They did replace the "motion control dat joystick" with a button press, but if they left it in and tried to keep the rest of it the same it would have been a train wreck.

| * elvis.shrugged: JSFR...I find hard to recommend. I loved the original JSR, a lot. It's one of my favorite games ever, and JSFR just reeks of "missed opportunity." They took the urgency of the original---the time limits, the arcade-styled scoring system, the cops always chasing you---and replaced it with an exploration game. Hence, there is no urgency. The cops have been boxed in, and can't chase you (!!!). You no longer hurriedly twist the analog stick to create graffiti. In addition to that, the graphics have this very washed out and blurred look compared to the crisp, clean lines of JSR. Even the soundtrack pales compared to JSR's! | * elvis.shrugged: JSFR...I find hard to recommend. I loved the original JSR, a lot.

| + | * Swarm: Way more interesting strictly as an exploration game you can chill out in. Every time I think I'm going to start up a new game and play through the game again, I just end up loading an old save and skating through my favorite levels, admiring the cel-shaded not-Tokyo environments, hanging out in record stores and under glass-roofed shopping strips. | ||
