So the blood is still black and white? Wasn't it red the original Japanese version?

Then I guess this seems more appropriate to the answer in question. And about other releases, who knows...

I watched the gameplay videos and found that the victor names are still left in Japanese. I find this confusing. If CAPCOM U.S.A. has their own version of the game with the translated names, then why are they using the japanese version of the game?

And why are they still choosing to censor the blood in the Japanese version of the game for that matter? This is a game that was released back in 1998. I'm sure the target demographics that they were aiming for are already mature enough to handle this display of violence.

Well, if there's a dual text language option or something, then that might be fine, if not, then I guess you might have to change the system settings or something, other than that, gotta wait until next week to see how it goes.

The hell is with that glitch at the end of the Jotaro/Dio video?

This isn't a waste of time at all since there's the new anime coming out soon along with the Namco Bandai PS3 game in Japan. I agree with you though about Power Stone & especially Onimusha.

This was announced like a week after the announcement for the new anime and game, so either this is Capcom jumping on the Jojo's bandwagon again or it was actually made for the Jojo's 25th anniversary which is this year.

The release of the game is in conjunction with the franchise's 25th anniversary. And considering that CAPCOM released the English version of the game before, there wouldn't be any delay for them in releasing this HD version in tandem with the Japanese version in Japan and the European version in Europe.

Besides, it's more money for CAPCOM.

That wasn't a glitch, you can actually counter the Time Stop move with your own (since there is also an achievement/trophy for pulling this off), and if memory serves, this also happens in the manga/anime of "Stardust Crusaders" as well.

Hmm, kinda wondered if that was the case as I've seen footage of Jotaro pull off a time freeze super as well but I've only played the game here and there so I wasn't sure if that was suppose to happen or not. That and my progress in the manga is up to the point where the gang meets Abdul's father.
