This week on Critical Arcade, Dave and Nick slip into their cyber-sneakers, juice up their Boost Packs, and plunge headfirst into the gravity-defying, tag-spraying, rhythm-blasting world of Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. Set in the vibrant, cel-shaded sprawl of New Amsterdam, this spiritual successor to Jet Set Radio throws our duo into a chaotic turf war between graffiti crews, corrupt cops, and one seriously shady megacorp. With style as their weapon and music as their heartbeat, they’ll race across rooftops, grind rails, and wall-run their way through rival territory — all while trying to uncover the truth behind the mysterious events surrounding the death of Red’s original head… yes, actual head.

As they recruit new crew members, tag over enemy graffiti, and unlock secret parts of the city, the stakes start to rise — not just in the game, but in their ability to remember which button does what.

Will Nick finally land that combo after 27 failed attempts? Can Dave figure out how to manual without launching himself into traffic?

Strap in, turn the volume way up, and join the boys as they bring the funk, defy the law of gravity (and common sense), and ride the rails of rebellion in this high-octane, paint-splattered journey through one of the most stylish games in recent times.
