I really want to play a Jojo game.

Should I get an import of Eyes of Heaven? Is it any good?

Apparently it's better than ASB but not exactly good

ASB is a weird game because it's obviously made by people who were huge jojo fans, but didn't know how to make a proper fighter.

How did Capcom lose the rights to the series anyway? I know it must have happened as far back as the PS2 era, because they didn't make the part 1 game.

They probably just had a contract to make x game for JoJo here and there and then Shueisha looked to Bandai Namco afterwards for whatever reason

ASB is a fantastic JoJo fanservice game, but even as someone who has less than basic knowledge of fighting gsmes, it got pretty boring.

I watched Parts 1 - 3 as they aired and then said gently caress it and read all the manga. I expected I wouldn't be as excited the next time a new part rolled around but now already knowing everything that happens makes me actually wayyyyyyy more loving exciting to see all my favorite stand battles voices and animated

1 above 5... were you reading the bad translation of 5? the one where it's comic sans for like half the pages and they hosed up all the characters?

An Asura's Wrath style game would definitely be the best way to do JoJo stories but it wouldn't be especially interesting as a game. Character action games like Platinum's wouldn't be ideal because Stand battles are more 1 on 1 rock paper scissors sort of balance than anything else so splattering a bunch of random humans until you come up against a boss enemy with a Stand wouldn't really be interesting and giving a crappy punchghost that all the generic enemies share or whatever would suck but the boss battles would probably be sensational.

Fighting games are the easiest way to make a game identifiably JoJo and fun to play, so if you make a good fighting game with the sort of story presentation that CC2 do for Naruto, I think that would be the best way to make a JoJo game.


Or just do JoJo Kart like I was on about a while back.

i was entirely serious in saying that a shenmue-style game would be amazing if centered around a more low-key story like arcs 4 or 8 or whatever.

the better translation is leagues better and even without that the idea of ranking it worse than 1 is kind of baffling

Maybe? I know that I liked the setting of 1 more. 5 is still neat and there's some crazy stand fights but I just didn't really care about any of the characters.

I don't even bother to include part 5 in ranking parts because I've not read a reasonable representation of it.
