Thanks to Capcom, you became a Jojofag before watch the anime. Capcom Quest of Jojo's Venture! Sono Chi no Sadame, Kono DIO da, Yare Yare Daze and other memes.
Capcom even produced some anime/manga games in their early ages, but none of those anime came close to the success that JoJo did!
I have heard several times that it was thanks to this game that a lot people discovered anime. Something quite common to tell the truth, since Jojo was only broadcast in Japan...
I honestly never had interest in playing the game, especially at that time with so many other fighting game options. Today older, I regret not having spent a coin =/ (Sure I would become a Jojofag in the 90s!)
The game follows the story of the franchise's most popular arc, Stardust Crusaders! And each character has its story mode, with several dialogues and classic scenes from the manga. I'm glad I already watched the episodes, so I got all the "IS THIS A JOJO'S REFERENCE?"
The gameplay is the 2d style of fighting games, but of course, Capcom adapted what is most famous in the anime, the Stands! You can activate the stand and change your character's moveset, you just have to pay attention to the bar, if it ends while you defend, you will be punished with the "Guard Break".
There are 10 fighters, 6 heroes and 4 villains, but as always there are characters that are secret. I choose not to play with the secrets now, because I know that Heritage will soon be on Quest xD
This version has only one minigame, it is very simple and refers to one of the desert episodes. You just have to run like crazy and hit the man!
We also have a lot of censorship here. Jojo refers to the names of famous bands and singers and Capcom has always been afraid to take lawsuits. In addition, it has white blood in the American version...
I don't even know what to say about Vanilla Ice. Sooo Broken!!!!
Midler was the character I most enjoyed playing. She's very fast and have bizarre things like summoning several cars in her special! She made a very subtle appearance in the manga, here she was completely remodeled.
But this was FUCKING AWESOME! The DIO's road roller has been adapted in the game! Capcom I love you !!!! s2 s2 s2.
