JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All Star Battle Gets Weird in North America Today

This is apparently going to be super rare at retail, might just pick it up for that.

oh. oh okay.

Can't wait for Jeff to QL this game.

This totally has spoilers for the currently airing anime, so beware.

ORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAORAAA!

Needs more flamboyance.

Wait, so Lisa Lisa was in the trailer, whose a DLC character in Japan. I wonder if they're going to include all the DLC on disk for the US release. Here's hoping.

FROG FRACTIONS 2.

MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA

They aren't, the game has a pretty big roster but it's still missing some, Japan has 9 DLC characters for download which aren't on the European or American store at the moment, you do get two DLC characters if you have the game pre-ordered.

FINALLY

YOU'RE MINE, JOJO!!!

The next thing you're going to say is... "This game kind of sucks"

This game kind of sucks..

w-what?

Looks like a voguing battle game.

God, I would love to see a QL of this game.

beautiful duwang etc etc.

The video covers 3 out of 8 parts of the series, the eighth still being made.

Also, the translators for this game went with "Hamon" but for everything else JoJo, I've seen it translated as "Ripple", which might make a little more sense for English speakers. Hamon is based off controlling your breathing, and if you do it right, you get sunlight punches. Effective against vampires, zombies, and Pillar Men.

Stands are a different territory entirely, but (in a nutshell) they are pretty much just psychic Personas.

There you go, a little useless trivia about the series.

got mine ordered on amazon. want the physical copy so bad!

ps: I'm a Jojo expert so holler at me if you want to quicklook this Giantbomb!

@petiew: this game kind of sucks.

WRYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

"King Crimson! Time has been erased."

The demo was... kind of what I expected. Pretty, but otherwise not particularly interesting. And I say that as someone who's read parts 1-5 of Jojo.
Characters seem to have a pitifully small amount of moves though. At least based on tried and true dragonpunch esque moves and the move list itself.

I forgot how silly crazy Part 1 was. Wow...

I downloaded this off of the Hong Kong PSN store when it first came out in Japan. I then continued to buy all the DLC, and have now bought the US version as well.

It's not the most technical fighting game out there, but I still think it's super fun.

Yeah I imported the JP version and have had it since launch. I still play it (in fact I just took it out to play some Dark Souls 2), and it's one of the few PS3 games I've platinum'd. They've done a lot to fix some of the really glaring issues, but it's far from perfect, but for a JoJo fan I think the attention to detail and fun little things to notice is great. Just don't expect Street Fighter 4 or something.

Doing Johnny's GHA against President Valentine is hype as fuck.

@larsa: I FEEL YOU. I REALLY REALLY FEEL WHAT YOU ARE SAY. I FEEL.

Even speed wagon is hype!

Sing it with me everyone! SONO CHI NO SADAME!!

wow i went from knowing nothing about the jojo's bizarre adventure franchise to knowing the whole story arch. sweet.

What did I not just watch?

I love how ridiculous and over the top Jo-Jo can be, but my favorite thing about it has to be the Space Jam covers

Fanservice in this game is top notch, but I hope for the sequel they get the fighting down better. JoJo deserves a great fighting game.

Josuke best JoJo.

EDIT: Also, the OST for this game is really good.

It's the power that comes from breathing in a certain way.

Yeah I grabbed a copy off of Amazon, being a crazy game collector. Plus, I enjoyed the original game for its weirdness, so I figured why not. It also sounds like its a fun but not extremely technical fighting game (which is a plus for me - I like the genre, but don't have a ton of time to get super amazing at said games).

DiOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Can I get a Hamon Energy hold the mayo?

SO NO CHI NO SA DA ME

@crembaw: JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOJO!

The fucking steamroller sold me. Goddammit.

DIOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

This manga is hilarious.

This x 100000000000

nothing wrong with collecting :), and yea that sounds about right for what this game is, asura's wrath and the naruto games were the same way, very stylish, but not extremely technical.

Looks alright. It's still no Asura's Wrath.

This kind of made me want to watch the anime.

I can't get over just how gigantic Jonathan, Joseph and Jotaro are compared to the rest of them. They're gigantic.

lol, the manga does mention a few times that all three of them are 195 cm (almost 6'5"). Josuke, Jolyne and Giorno didn't get those genetics. Super tall Jolyne and Giorno would just look weird.

Crunchyroll has the first season up subbed, and the second season has new eps every friday.

I dunno why you'd compare JJBA to Asura's Wrath.

The anime is on the beginning of part 3 while the manga is ongoing on part 8. Read the manga.
