This review is from: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (Video Game)
Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is just the game I needed. After spending many hours with more 'hard-core' games, it was nice to dive into a game with simple, arcade-style gameplay. Fans of Capcom's fighting legacy won't be disappointed in Jojo's. Gameplay is over-the-top excitement with a distinct flavor of Japanese comic book kookiness. Though not as deep a game as some of Capcom's former efforts, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is sure to please any fan of 2D fighting games. This gem is rewarding for both novices and veterans alike. Be warned though; If you buy Jojo's, be prepared to meet some of the oddest characters in video game history!

odd game, odd play, May 20 2003

Jojo's bizzare adventure is a very strange game. the closest thing I can think of that even remotely is similiar to this is darkstalkers (also made by capcom I believe) the controls are hard to get a hold of, especially on the dreamcast controller, and the graphics are not up to the machines capabilities. (In fact the graphics are very similar to those used on the saturn version of darkstalkers.) the play istelf is quite limited, combos and special moves are difficult to pull off, although they are funny at some times. The horrible quality of the japanese dub (japanese dub is better!) makes the game even more enjoyable and makes you feel like you are playing an import game. all together, the package scores about a 3.3.

Totally unbalanced but still a lot of fun, April 17 2001

I've never played a game quite like this before. The characters are totally unbalanced (some are much stronger than others) and I don't think any other fighting-game would get away with that. But this game is so weird anyway that it doesn't matter. It has got pretty ugly graphics and strange Japanese sound but I had a lot of fun with it. Give it a try, you'll maybe even like it :)
