Jump Force Is A Flashy Anime Crossover, But Something Feels Off
If you even have only a vague knowledge of Japanese manga and anime, chances are you’re familiar with at least one of the dozens of series that got their break in the hugely popular Weekly Shonen Jump manga anthology. Jump Force sees all the most famous heroes and villains springing forth from the manga’s pages and into the real world, doing battle in a new crossover 3v3 tag team fighting game.
I agree with them about the graphics. It really doesn't look right, and I don't know why they aren't going with a cel shaded look. They are trying to make anime real, and it doesn't work. It looks horrible. Hopefully they drop these graphics and go for something more cel shaded and true to the anime that each character comes from. I was really excited when I heard a Jump game was coming West. I remember playing a Shounen Jump game on my DS that was a 2d fighting game like Smash Bros, and it was awesome (even if I had to import it and do a bunch of stuff to get it working right).
But this isn't really what I was expecting. I got excited when I heard it was coming West, but Jump Force looks like it's trying way too hard to appeal to a wide, Western audience. Which is too bad, the premise of the game seems like it has a lot of potential. Hopefully they pull back on the realism.
