Changing it from JoJo to Gio Gio really doesn't make much difference, but I guess it'll make it easier since calling it something like "JoJo 5th Chapter" would confuse some people!
Hmm, has that GBA games trailer been there long? I haven't noticed it before...

I love how they call it an anime comic book. That's like calling a book that has a movie based off of it a movie book.

Like the Street Fighter Movie game? The game based off a movie based off a game!

Not exactly. They had to call it that because not enough people know the word manga, and if they just said comic book, people would think it was Western. Well, manga is a comic book that looks like anime (which is of course back-asswards to the extreme), but whatever they can do to work around vocab that people don't have...

Probably would be easier just to call it Anime art. Imply's the same meaning, and is less stupid...:P

The hero of that particular JBA arc is Giorno Giovanna, so technically, "GioGio" is correct. He's releated to both the Joestars and Dio Brando, hence Jojo + Dio.
I don't see what's wrong with the word manga (why not just explain what the word means?), or even comic, for that matter. Maybe "uncolored comic" to avoid confusion. I really don't see a ton of difference between manga and "traditional" comics, and in any case, I don't understand why Capcom would be so concerned about the distinctions.

I like the design of the title.... But if they call it Giogio, why did they called Giorno "Jorno"? In japanese, the game genre is "gold experience adventure" (ôgon taiken adventure....why not?
I wonder if NCSX will have the version with the poster in it.... I really doubt , but...

I think that's a mistranslation they made. I really hope his name isn't mistranslated as Jorno in the game...

"Gold experience adventure" sounds too much like engrish. I think they left "bizarre adventure" so people would recognize that is related to the first jojo game for playstation and dreamcast (since as you know the jojo series will never arrive to the states for some magical reason.)

The fact that the 20 first volumes are incredibly unreadable has nothing magical...
