Amazing work! The Dreamcast was and is my favourite console, I still have many great memories from having it all those years ago. So much so that I made this [1] when messing about with D3.js

It's mentioned in the article, but it's great that the emulation of original Xbox games has improved such that many games are now playable. I remember checking back every year to see if I could finally play Jet Set Radio Future (JSRF), and one day eventually being able to get in the game and play! It's hinted in the article but I look forward to the day when JSRF has better emulation. They've done great work to get it this far already!

It's a shame JSRF wasn't re-released on Steam like JSR... also a shame that they couldn't use the original soundtrack when re-releasing Crazy Taxi, so I still prefer to emulate on Dreamcast despite owning it on Steam.

I keep my original Xbox just to play JSRF still, but I would like to play it in HD someday. Bomb Rush Cyberfunk is looking real good though as a spiritual successor if you haven't seen it yet.

Sold on the Xbox a long time ago - back when I regularly moved from flat to flat it became a hassle to take all that stuff with me! I’ll check out Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, thanks for the tip!

Also have an original Xbox but it’s a v1.6, in which MS managed to break JSRF and a few other games due to using a different video encoding chip. Very annoying (though on the plus side, no leaking clock capacitor). Thanks for pointing out BRC.

What I'd love to see is a reissue of Phantasy Star Online. I loved that game, and it was super ahead for its time. Sadly, PSO2 seems to have really strayed away from the originals formula.

I know what you mean. They've just released their "expansion" too, New Genesis, which pushes further away from the original!
