JoJo's Bizarre Adventure page 2 of 2
Dreamcast

So it's a four-player game?
No.

Why on earth should I be excited then?
Because you get the original JoJo's and the sequel on the same disc. Okay, if you're not a fan of Capcom and/or all things Japanese then it's not much of an incentive. It's a bit like going to the dentist for an extraction and he whips out a perfectly healthy tooth as well, for free, and then expects you to be elated.

What a bizarre thing to say!
JoJo's does this to you. Take Petshop, for example, one of the strangest characters of all time. He's a bird...

A ladyboy?
No, he's a bird of the feathered variety. As such, he's not restricted by the law of gravity and can simply flit around the screen, nipping in for the occasional attack.

How odd.
Exactly. And that's why it'll appeal to hardcore fight fans. We're simply baffled to see this get a UK release. Not that we're complaining, of course. If only other publishers would stick their necks out and release obscure Japanese titles over here.

Do say...
Suffer at the hands of my stand!

Don't ask...
Why?

  • Classic Capcom with a twist
  • Essential for purveyors of Japanese madness
  • The stand system is a bit of a novelty
  • It's not exactly 'next generation'
  • Not a patch on Street Fighter III: Double Impact
