Does anyone know if the PSN version JJBA ASB has any kind of DRM that would prevent me from playing it on 2 PS3's while on 2 different accounts? I remember some games having some kind of 24 hour lock to prevent that.
Sorry if repost

@Peff- Thanks mate! Time to buy the DLC~
No word on Region lock so far.
If you have a US PS3, and your friend has an EU PS3, both of you just need to log into the JPN account and dl it, and enjoy the fabulousness of JoJo~

I'm still extremely skeptical of these infinites.
Alot of people, especially early on in a game like this, just pay attention to combo counter and don't set the CPU to any escape options.
The only infinite I've seen that looks bad is Jolyne(still playing her) because it's a standing meterless infinite off a light. but even that one I want to test before just accepting it.
The ones in timed modes are whatever to me and I have a strong feeling that Diavolo's J.H in that video isn't a hard knockdown. This game does have tech rolls IIRC.

Yeah, I played a little this morning (couldn't wait for my physical copy lol) and you can tech roll, but I haven't fought Diavolo yet, so can say for certain about his jump H.
I'm starting to think stick might be better, at least for those who are more accustomed to it.

So if I make a JPN account can I use my US credit card to add points/buy the game? Or do I need to buy a specfic point cards?

You need a Japanese CC or buy Japanese PSN cards.
When they actually ship depends on when you preordered it. First come, first serve

I see. And do you know a good site for JPN cards by any chance? :3
I use Japan-codes. It's pretty decent, they email you a code within 24 hours and they're reliable.

I don't think so. But she could still be a DLC character later on.

Question for anyone that's gotten a decent amount of play-do you know if you can only do one push cancel per combo? Trying to think up some possibilities.

Have you tried using the Webstore then going to download list on your PS3?

Well there's been no word on it since, so...
I have not yet. Although I heard that the maintenance period is rather short for this one. So I'll just try again or do that after breakfast.

Is push cancel just another term for a puttstun cancel?

I just realized that I've been misreading it all morning lol
The term makes more sense to me now. In the other posts I saw I was like "what the hell is puttstun? Is it kick specific hitstun?"
Should be "puttsun."
Wait, who were the characters found after data mining?

Vanilla Ice, Old Joseph, Lisa Lisa, Anasui and a Part 1 character, who apparently is the Chinese midget who gave Dio the poison

That last one is more of a wild guess based on an abreviation they found. I really doubt they will make him playable. I probably wouldn't even buy him if they did.

I doubt it as well, maybe he was meant to be like the Heroes and Heralds cards in UMvC3, since JoJo ASB has a mode similar to it.
Should I buy this game?
I don't know anything about Jojo (I heard the name many years ago in Jojo's bizarre adventure) but I know nothing about it other than the fact that the 2D art at the time was very good.
I love 1v1 fighting games à la SF4 (assists and tags make things too crazy for my simple brain)
I LOVE over the top humor and foolishness.
I LOVE the game's art style and the gameplay videos look awesome.
However, I don't play fighting games solo, I play them online and if I have to import this game, who am I going to play it with online?
I also no anderstan japones.
Please help me decide, GAF.

Read JoJo. At the very least watch JoJo. This is a JoJo game and it's made for fans, you wouldn't get many 'oh wow' moments from the game if you just jump in.

Yeah, if nothing else check out a few episodes of the recent anime, and some of the manga (don't know who puts it out). One of the things that drew me to Jojo in the first place was the craziness, and the game goes out of its way to represent and include a lot of fan service.
It also seems so far to be a standup fighting game in the more competitive sense, although obviously not to the degree of a game design around being a competitive fighter.

What if he came with head-in-a-jar Dio though
Interesting list. Hope Old Joseph is true, he was one of my favorite characters in the Capcom game.
What if head-in-a-jar Dio was his own characters =O

While the fighting mechanics seem decent enough at first sight, this is largely a fanservice game that celebrates the 25th anniversary of JoJo. If I were you I'd wait a bit for reactions of fighting fans to see if the mechanics hold up. If you are interested in buying it, I'd strongly recommend you read the manga and/or watch the anime, since you will get so much more out of this game.

Meh, maybe if head-in-a-jar Dio is a character on its own I would buy it.
Edit: woops, srry about the double post...
