Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure has some bizarre game footage

@lifelower was kind enough to send us a playlist of videos of some gameplay footage from the upcoming HD port of Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure played at the San Diego Comic-Con. For those who haven’t heard, the game’s based on the popular manga/anime from Japan about a man who discovers supernatural powers and must find the origin of them. Pretty normal premise for a fighting game but it gets even wackier from there. From the above video, we see characters launching cutlery at their opponent. They launch into their “Stand” ability that makes a supernatural sentient-being help you in battle. Catch more videos after the jump and see if this game really is worth the 1600 MSP come August 22.
