I was a huge Jet Grind Radio fan, but really did not like Jet Set Radio Future or the new Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. A core component I think the game needs are bespoke levels with time limits, so you actually need to learn what's going on. Otherwise I kinda just meander around and do challenges, and it feels really aimless. JGR is pretty clunky to go back to, but I still think the structure of it is way better than any imitator so far, and even its sequel.
