Description:
JoJos Bizarre Adventure is a fighting game developed by Capcom based on Hirohiko Arakis Japanese manga of the same title. The games were developed by the same team who are responsible for the Street Fighter III series. It was originally released in the arcade in 1998 on the CPS-3 arcade system; this version was known outside Japan as JoJos Venture. An updated version of the game was released in 1999 as JoJos Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future (?????????????????????????????? ?????????????????? JoJo no Kimy?? na B??ken Mirai e no Isan?), becoming the sixth and last game released for the CPS-3 board. Console ports for the PlayStation and Dreamcast were also released that year. A high-definition version of the game was released on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live Arcade in August 2012.[1] The game combines Capcoms trademark anime-inspired graphics, as seen in the Darkstalkers series, with the colorful characters and events of Hirohiko Arakis creation, resulting in a highly stylized and detailed visual style. It also features many of the gameplay mechanics seen on previous Capcom fighting games, such as the use of power gauges for super moves, as well as a brand new Stand Mode, consisting of a guardian spirit that accompanies each character and can be summoned or dismissed at will by the player, resulting in variations on the characters move list and abilities. Original author Hirohiko Araki served as a consultant for the game and created exclusive pieces of artwork for its promotion and packaging; most notably, he developed from scratch a new character design for Midler, since Capcom was interested in using her in the game and she had been only vaguely shown in the original manga.
