1441: Jet Set Radio Demo PS3 \\ 1080p, stylish as heck, can't control it for snot, I stink
3Runs at 30fps, just like the Dreamcast version did. There's a Steam version (and corresponding Steam demo) (also 30fps, apparently) for $2 less than the PS3 version.
Unlike the DC, the PS3 version runs at 1080p -- a rare feat on the ol' PS3. Nice!

(There are jump cuts throughout 'cause of copyright claims on Deavid Soul tracks, a Rob Zombie track I tripped over in the radio player, and me saying awful stuff. : P)
Still looks great and I love the vibrant vision of Tokyo in parody US brands, bright colors, and bold shapes, right down to things like distant streets being painted on the wall.
Starts with you mimicking easy in-line skating & spray-painting runs from your fellow "Rudie" youth gang members. The demo has just one actual mission mission, and as soon as I had to try tough jumps there I somehow kept twitching my character off-course or something at take-off, and then couldn't course-correct, with the camera trailing behind where I wanted to see and the character having surprisingly little air control.
So basically I suck at it, felt like I was fighting a losing battle against the controls, and it was a huge relief that there was only the one real mission!
According to https://tcrf.net/Jet_Grind_Radio_(Dreamcast) , the "Burger Queen" parody storefront seen here (14:22) was present but not used in the DC version, instead replaced there by "Burger Joint."
I played further in the full version back in the day on DC, not sure how; maybe the control worked a little better on the DC pad somehow? Probably just me not being as old. = P I did peter out on it eventually; pretty sure I never finished.
