Achievements for the upcoming release of Jet Set Radio HD have been revealed, and with them comes a hint towards a bonus that SEGA has yet to speak of. At the top of the list of thirty achievements is one titled “Back to the Future” with the description “Unlock all songs in the bonus menu”. To my knowledge, there was never a bonus menu that unlocked songs in the original game. There was a sound test, but that was complete from the start. No unlocking necessary. The achievement’s title mentions “future”, which of course was in the title of the franchise’s second game Jet Set Radio Future. Could SEGA be adding an option to play select tunes from Jet Set Radio Future? Or is it simply a nod to the sequel and nothing more? After the break, the full list of achievements.

Can’t wait for Jet Set to come out, it’s taking a bit longer than I thought though but it’s probably because Sega are still working to get these last two tracks from the Dreamcast back in this re-release, one of which was Yappie Feet by David Soul the UK producer, although can’t quite remember the other one. Still no firm release fixed release date but the achievement reveal is a promising sign it’s near completion, as most achievements come out just weeks before the games official release.
The icon for that music achievement is also the JSRF logo, so I;m going to bet they stuck a few choice tracks from that game in for sure, most likely some of the Hideki Naganuma ones like Concept of Love. Yes please!
A proper port of JSRF on XBLA or PSN would be nice. Having to play the game with XBOX emulation is not quite what it should be.
With any luck this port will be successful enough to warrant them bringing JSRF out in the near future. I never owned a Xbox or 360 so that would be very very nice Sega k thanx.
