Unless they fixed all of the bullshit in this game, it's not worth the price of admission.

The japanese release of this game was EXCEPTIONALLY broken, in a way that I've never seen.

I got my copy a few days ago for $30 and I dunno what you mean. It's not on the same level as other fighting games, but it's filled to the brim with JoJo fanservice and I'm really happy with it.

This was pretty bad, right? I was really excited when it was announced, but I'm probably not gonna get it and stick with the XBLA one instead.

Same boat as you. Bought this game at launch and even though the online was pretty shit, I still got about 200 hours out of local matches.

The original comic is equally if not more insane. I love it.

Putting them all together really emphasizes just how, let's say "masculine", the designs in Battle Tendency are.

I'll probably pick this up if the price is right. My girlfriend love's JoJo's but isn't super into fighting games, so well hopefully have fun mashing it out. I'm also fascinated to see how super busted this game is apparently.

Jojo is fucking good and its a shame it didn't catch on in the states. it's a more mature action series than you'd get from a dragon ball z or any of the other "popular shonens" and it has a really unique art style. The fact that each part is like a standalone story (while taking place inside a larger fiction) is the kinda thing that would make it more popular with a western audience if it got the exposure it needed. It's also weirdly grounded in a way, such as having the heroes spend most of part 3 riding around in a pick-up truck, the most ordinary thing ever.

So many characters, so much fanservice, so many interesting ideas for differentiating the characters, with Narancia's aerosmith or Johnny's fingernail guns.

Too bad the game itself was not good, to say the least.

Shit, I just remembered where I've seen that CyberConnect2 name now - I totally forgot this is the same developer that made Asura's Wrath.

Goddamn, would I love another game like that.

I already imported this and I liked it a lot. As a competitive fighting game it's pretty broken, but as an awesome looking Jojo game it gets the job done. I'll probably buy it again.

Remember guys: it's a JoJo game first and a fighting game second.

Take that to heed.

This looks like a thing I want to buy. Apparently people have mixed feelings on it but I'm bad at fighting games so I probably wouldn't notice.

I spent quite a bit of money to import this game at launch and now it was all for naught. Honestly I didn't get nearly the enjoyment I expected partially because my friends don't want to play it with me. Despite all my disappointment I'll probably buy it again because I'm a sucker for JoJo. At least I didn't pay for any of the rip off DLC characters that they should've rolled into this version. We'll chalk it up to dirty deeds done dirt cheap. Wrrrrryyyyy.

Correct.

I give this game my 1000% endorsement as long as it keeps CyberConnect2 in business.

I decided a couple of months ago that I wanted to try reading a manga, and ended up going with JoJo. I'd highly recommend it, it's fantastic and I'm really enjoying the heck out of it. Great art, crazy stories, some ridiculous dialogue - the title certainly doesn't lie.

Definitely somewhat interested in this if it ever makes it to the UK, but perhaps I'll finish reading it and maybe even watch some of the anime version first. I'm not sure I'm deep enough in yet for the fanservice to play quite enough to warrant investing the time in a fighter unless it's really excellent. We'll see.

I really want this game, I just hope it's actually worthwhile and not a barebones game meant to be bolstered with a dozen DLC purchases.

When I first read about the "energy" system in the Japanese version, I was seriously put off. But seemingly, they've done away with that for the US release. But the possibility of many characters being siphoned off for that sweet sweet DLC cash is still looming.

Single button mid air infinites, and this isn't even the worst type of stuff in this game. This game is BROKEN.
