Move past that basic set of elements, though, and you start to see the quirkiness that is quintessentially SEGA:
old -
school combat where you initiate enemy encounters with random punks on the street JRPG -
style; mini games that involve cooking noodles to the correct hardness and following the rules of the road with passengers in your taxi; and best of all, a ton of missions that just come out of
left field, like helping a student cram for his exams by answering questions about physics and grammar.
