Pixel Boost is our weekly series devoted to the artistry of games, and the techniques required to run them at high resolutions.
Jet Set Radio's developers probably never dreamed of 5K resolution when they first released the game in 2000, but the art style holds up all these years later. There are some pixelated textures here and there, but the crispness of the resolution meshes perfectly with the low-detail, colorful cel shading.
To run Jet Set Radio at a higher resolution with downsampling, use Durante's GeDoSaTo. By default, it includes 4K and 5K resolution presets. Activate GeDoSaTo before booting up Jet Set Radio. The game boots into a settings screen and asks you to choose your resolution. The downsampling resolution options should be available; choose one like 3840x2160, and GeDoSaTo will smoothly downsample it to your monitor's native resolution.
Remember to click on the "expand" icons on the screenshots above for the full resolution images!
Oh, and if you're mostly a Jet Set Radio fan for the soundtrack: have a listen while you browse.
