Playing Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood
This time on Playing we're tackling Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Phantom Blood, for the Playstation 2, a weird adaptation of a weird manga about incredibly buff men who breathe to punch sunlight into vampires, and that's somehow really boring.
It's a 3D Beat em up that puts faithfulness in adapting its source material over fun gameplay and it pretty much is terrible, but has a strange lot of unique per fight mechanics and really seems to care about presenting Jojo well, it just can't.
