This is a review of the [JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future port for seventh generation consoles, not for the game itself.]

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure HD gets rid of its own sub-title to offer the original arcade experience in high definition. This port offers not much else in content besides; integrated networking, ranking system, better looking menus, a nicer font for its text, unlockables (trophies) and an ugly "smoothing" filter you can put over the gameplay, and that's pretty much it. I think it was a solid 2012 release as a neat downloadable in PSN and Xbox Live, if only they just kept it for longer...

Would see this working better if it hadn't gone defunct due to licensing issues, hell, this version of the game in a platform like Steam or something would probably do very good due to the integrated networking which doesn't force you to install Fightcade which in itself is a software that becomes even more confusing the more it lives on apparently.

Also, that N'Doul trophy is so bad, getting a perfect in that stage is not impossible but sure as hell does require some skill thinking this is a FIGHTING GAME and not a PLATFORMER. Took me so much time, damn I hated that.
