BaD Dreamcast days Jet Set Radio free on Steam!

Thats right! Jet Set Radio is free on Steam. I'm installing right now! Golden Axe from Genesis is also free on Steam!

Coincidentally, I was playing the latest Neptunia game, and if you aren't familiar with the series its a ridiculous take on the console war with anime girls representing consoles, Playstation, XBox, etc. The new game introduces the Dreamcast and its girlie avatar named Uzume. Here she is:

Notice the orange and white colors of the Dreamcast as well as the spiral logo on her tie. Not entirely sure why she uses a bullhorn as her main weapon. It is quite annoying to use in game. Sounds like those stupid vuvuzela trumpets that drown out every soccer game I've seen.

It really has nothing to do with the Dreamcast honestly? The weapon I mean. I would have much preferred an ULALA from space channel 5, which fits the games style perfectly, but that goes into a nother irk I have with Neptunia, and that is that it doesn't really go all the way with representing other games at all. It's not like Kingdom Hearts with it'd depiction of Disney worlds, or even Smash Bros with all it's licenced characters and worlds.

Anyhow, here is her altered fembot formation.

Its not too different from this I guess.

Now go download Jet Set Radio y'all! It's a pretty old game so I'm assuming it should run fine on older PCs, but I'd recommend using a controller!

I had to figure out why they were free: http://steamed.kotaku.com/jet-set-radio-and-other-sega-games-are-free-on-steam-ri-1759494001

Don't think they're free in Canada because the cart does not say free. Whatevs I got most of these games already in one form or another.

That is a great deal on a couple of games, especially if folks didn't play them on the Dreamcast or Genesis for Golden Axe. When I bought my Dreamcast Jet Set Radio was one of the must buy games. I also think I have the sequel on the original X-Box. Space Channel 5 was also such a fun game, and I do know I have the Dreamcast and PS2 versions.
