"Jet Grind Radio" (skating action)
by Sega of America Inc.
A blend of 2-D and 3-D graphics creates a visually stunning comic-book
presentation in "Jet Grind Radio." Players grind rails and jump cars on
high-speed inline skates, pausing only to spray-paint "artistic" tags on
buildings. Skate-wearing cops are the perfect excuse for wild chase
scenes through the graffiti-laced futuristic cityscape. No other
upcoming Dreamcast game exudes this much coolness, and the original
gameplay is spiced with unique style.

WHAT'S HOT?
"Tony Hawk's Pro Skater" (skateboarding)
by Crave Entertainment
Tony Hawk has performed two legendary feats during his skateboarding
career. In 1999, he pulled off the first 900--that's two and a half
rotations in midair--in skateboarding competition history. Around the
same time, he contributed hundreds of motion-captured moves for "Tony
Hawk's Pro Skater," originally released on the Sony PlayStation. The
realism and compulsive fun of the game left virtual skaters blurry eyed
from marathon sessions, and now Dreamcast fans get to jump aboard and
discover what the hype's all about.
