@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.

We’re still looking at a spring release and the listing does bring a rumor of a March 19 release date but this unconfirmed at this date.

Girl Fight was only introduced a couple weeks ago but the upcoming fighting game with plenty of girls is soon around the corner. Kung Fu Factory and Microprose have revealed their first character entitled “Wrench”. While she may lack a shirt, she makes up for being a “tank” class which deals heavy amount of damage. She also graduated MIT at the age of 19, so it only makes sense a shadowy organization would kidnap her and make her fight other girls. Check out her arena after the jump.
