Jojo's Bizarre Adventure All Star Battle

From Wikipedia


Trailers


Actual gameplay - A bit sluggish, but that's just the unfinished product



So as you can see, they're pretty much putting everything they have into this game - If you don't know anything about JoJo's bizarre adventure, I don't blame you.
There was about only two OVAs until the new series came out (Covering the first parts of the manga, and they pretty much only covered part 1 and part 3 of the manga, but there's about 9(or parts of the manga, not to mention the fact that it started in '87(Or so) and ended in '04.
Basically the series is about how the Joestar family(Or a related member) has to fight or act because of something indirectly(or directly) caused by Dio Brando.

There was already two games based on the series, but one of them was a RPG on the super famicon, and the other was an AWESOME fighting game(following part 3) made for the arcades, dreamcast, and Ps1.(HD Ver. released later on Xbox 360 arcade and Ps3.)
Also famous for spreading the "WRRRRRRYYYYYYY" meme.

Gameplay of dat


Funfact: Part 4 of the manga series was the main inspiration for Persona 4.

Well it does have the stand system (With the exception of the part 1 and 2 characters, with some side-characters), not to mention Mortal Kombat fatalities themselves have become somewhat generic.
Tbh, this does borrow from SF4's artstyle, and makes a crazy love-child with it's own. However, other fighter's graphics aren't very much different (Tekken Tag 2 staying with Tekken 6, SFxTekken, etc.)


Please come up with something legitimate other then just general ignorance.

An opinion can still be ignorant.
Yours was, you just admitted to knowing nothing about the game, yet you're calling it generic.

Stop ducking from getting called out.

it looks way too much like street fighter. it looks like the type of game you play once or twice, then put it away for a few months or sell it. some moves were interesting, but follow almost every special move in a fighting game like tekken or street fighter (in concept).

i completely agree with mageer, "If the devs want to succeed then they need to break the mold, come up with something new and cool.
Like toribash, a one of a kind."

that should be a goal with a fighting game, not to just make it a fun thing. sure i will have fun playing a fighting game, but stupid combos and shit get old really fast. the only thing that could make up for that a little would be a good storyine, but i doubt that will happen.

this is my own personal opinion, take it however you wish.

I highly doubt any other game used the stand system.

if someone showed me the trailer without telling me the name, i would say street fighter.

You would be stupid if you did, and toribash has grown into a thing where only the cheapest techniques win, or the majority of players who have some kind of skill, are all trash talking 13 year olds.
EDIT:

How the fuck does it even? If you even played street fighter, you would know it's a completely different system.

None of these moves look like something from street fighter, maybe a select few would have some similarities, but all of these moves are taken directly from the manga, which was a on-going manga from 1987 to 2004 (If you actually read anything)

I don't think you even know what the game is mainly about.

storyine?
But anyways, it probably will follow the entire manga series (Seeing as they have to add all the characters for it), so it'll be probably waaaaaaaaay longer then the Ps1 version's story.
Not to mention, any game gets boring after a while, Toribash gets boring when you see that the only "fun" aspect is maybe to parkour, or do replays, but it's gets mudane after a while.

You like to pick and choose certain quotes.
Please come back when you've played a good amount of fighting games.

Seeing all these "reviews" is kinda like the same people who said Kwonho was the same as Tekken. Just ignorance all around that don't know how the game actually plays.

i picked the quote because it drew my attention. if i wanted to read more about a shitty fighting game i have seen 100 times before, i would have. i skimmed the article, watched the trailers, I'm not interested in the game. This looks like every capcom game and i am sick of capcom not raising the bar and trying to do better. this is also coming from somebody who really likes fighting games. learn to handle an opinion instead of calling somebody ignorant for it. when you posted this you posted for feedback. this is feedback. learn to handle it.


about the manga: i dont read manga often, and i dont think they have those at my local library, i wouldnt have bothered to read them otherwise. like i said, the game looks boring, i would make a guess the manga isnt that great either.

you act like we knew all the history, or MUST HAVE KNOWN the history of this game. we dont all like what you like you know.

"I don't think you even know what the game is mainly about."
no i dont, i dont want to know. it looks like shit, thats that.

oh and i have played toribash almost nonstop since i joined, it still hasnt gotten old. still by far one of my favourite games.

Unique artstyle, stand system, the ripple system, and unique stand abilities.

Just a side note here, smarten up, take an opinion like a man. and give good answers, I have no idea what the fuck you were trying to say when you responded.

I have joined about 3 clans in the time I've been here, been banned off of one account(Hacked), won a bunch of tournies, made a bunch of montages, and made my own textures at one point.
"Take an opinion like a man"
Hypocrite.

Also;
"this is feedback. learn to handle it."
I posted this in the hopes that another JoJo fan would be on this game, seeing as I thought the fanbase for Toribash was a-lot older then 20-10.
Also again;
"no i dont, i dont want to know. it looks like shit, thats that."
You just effectively dismantled everything you just said up to that point, exclaiming proudly, that you don't want to know what the game's about.
So you just contradicted everything you just said about trying to learn about the game.
Decide on one point and stick on it. Don't flip-flop like an idiot.

oh dear. look, i cant put it any clearer, i do not like the game. it looks like all of the other fighting games i have played before including mortal kombat, tekken, street fighter marvel vs capcom. all just ideas to get money and arent well thought out. this may follow a book but it is unreleased so you dont know how good it will be yet.
the reason i do not wan to know about this game is it isnt original, nothing creative has been done, the art style looks nice, but its not something im a fan of. you may be a diehard fan, but i am not.

So I'm sure now, you ARE the person who would say Kwonho is a copy of Tekken, and that the original arcade JoJo was a MvC copy.

Not so that, but just the fact that he doesn't know anything about the game, original arcade, or even how it plays, and yet calls it a copy of Tekken or SF4.

Anyways, from what it looks like, it'll probably most likely be like the arcade, with the same 360 feel with MKA. Which can probably leave for more complex combos - If you've even played tekken with some form of skill, you know that juggles are done up-close while JoJo requires for you to move all over the place, and to abuse your stand constantly.
