"I am all behind old games being updated for current systems, especially fighting games. I never got to play JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure back when the game released on the PS1 and Dreamcast, so this is the perfect time for me to test it out. That said, it seems this HD release has not been given the same amount of love that Street Fighter III: Third Strike: Online Edition or the upcoming Marvel vs. Capcom Origins received, and that really is a shame, because JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure is a rather unique fighting game."

Siliconera:
"Bandai Namco has more music for Taiko Drum Master: Don and Katsu’s Great Space-Time Adventure. A new expansion adds an extra quest and five more songs including "JoJo (Sono Chi no Sadame)." JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure fans should recognize that as the theme song from the 2012 anime adaptation."
Have you enjoyed Capcom’s digital re-releases? According to Capcom, perhaps not enough.
Capcom’s Christian Svensson has addressed some dissension on the official Capcom forums, explaining why some games have yet to re-release to the PSN and XBLA, and why they’re “slowing down” on HD remakes in general.
Bummer. I was hoping for more retro Disney game remakes. Aladdin and Chip 'n Dale would be fantastic on top of the upcoming Ducktales game.
... releasing mediocre/lazy HD-ports at a premium price (for digital downloads), and in the case of Jojo and Darksiders also lesser known titles with a smaller fanbase, and then complaining about a lack of sales and interest from the public...(!)
I love HD-remakes/ports, BUT THEY NEED TO BE DONE RIGHT!!!
IF you're going to bother doing a new HD-release of an older game, at least make sure it's the very best version possible, including all the content you can cram into it!
But no, story of Capcom for the last 10 years or so: Lazy and greedy.
It's pretty much the story of capcom's whole lifetime, They did alot of versions of street fighter 2, remade megaman 1-3 on the genesis (even if it didn't come to NA). They even did it with resident evil with slightly enhanced ports on dreamcast. Heck the gamecube had all the main resident evils up to 4 ported over. The last 10 years have been nothing new except for adding on disc dlc.
... but before they might have been greedy and lazy, but they still occasionally managed to come out with great original new games as well.
This generation though, they've JUST been greedy and lazy. Street Fighter 4 being the possible exception.
The HD remakes they are making shouldn't be more than $7.99 EVER. Especially since most of these games have mostly sentimental value for older gamer or those folks young enough to remember having played them the first time.
They would be better off packaging 3-5 remakes on one download and selling them that way. It's like they have no new ideas so they want to run back to what use to sell.
Crapcom needs to start looking a game sales like pastries. No one wants to buy your old shit unless you sell it at a serious discount.
I wanted an HD Street Fighter 3 Alpha with Online capabilities. It was the deepest Capcom fighter, and came out when arcades were dying, so I spent all that time getting good at it for nothing. If it was online, THEN I could start laying the smackdown!
Oni-Fucking- Musha Capcom. HD remaster this series before you start getting god damn lazy. Its the only game i want from you right now....
Worth Playing: "At half the asking price, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure would be a worthwhile impulse purchase, as the game itself still offers some intriguing gameplay. But a bare-bones release with a premium cost is difficult to justify for all but the most ardent of fans. You're better off buying a used Dreamcast or PSone copy and firing up the old console for a trip down memory lane."
Love how many old school fighting games are being released on new systems. Might have to check this one out.
I didnt like this game.. I had it for Dreamcast & returned it.. Maybe cuz i loved marvel vs capcom so much tho.. Ill try the demo again
This remake is pretty decent;
More characters
Entertaining storyline
Decent combo system...
My only qualm is the dated graphics (HD doesn't help much), & lack of voiceovers.
Definitely worth a try (demo), if you enjoy fighting games.
