I finally picked up Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, this being a game that's been on my radar since well before it came out because I was a big fan of Jet Set Radio Future back in the day. It's kind of too much like it and not enough like it at the same time? I tried the original Jet Set Radio when that came out on Steam and bounced off it but based on that limited experience I think this is kind of splitting the difference and that's where most of the frustrations come from. Movement is more like JSRF but level design is more like JSR. And the soundtrack seems to lack that variety of some songs being made for the game and others being licensed that kept the monotony at bay. No "Aisle 10" to slow things down for a bit.
I am enjoying it, though, for as little as it sounds like I am. Movement feels good enough that it's making me search for combo lines for the sake of combo lines and at the end of the day that's what's really important about this kinda game.
Never would have guessed going in that that would have the most graphically violent last boss sequence the series has ever seen. I beat it feeling like I was the real monster.
