I just finished the demo -( am pretty sure Shockwave will pick this one up but honestly I might buy it outright anyway like I did with the first two installments once I don't have to deal with Iwin) - and I just wanted to chime in to say that the reason this is the most popular of the fashion games is because of THE CLOTHES. Every other "fashion" game insists on having you slog through a bunch of regular workday things you can barely muster up the enthusiasm to wear in the first place - but every volume of JoJo's Fashion Show lets you play around with actually edgy, interesting stuff. Other games have copied the paper-dolls-to-runway gameplay, but only this series has the truly fun stylish CLOTHES to play with. It's that simple, really. You'd think game designers would realise that the design of the clothes themselves would be crucial to the success of a fashion game, but apparently not.
