Arm Joe

[jkid101094]

Arm Joe is a fighting game made in 2D Fighter Maker based off the popular book and musical, Les Miserables. It adds a weird Japanese twist to the old book and pretty much throws all logic out the window, even giving Jean Valjean a robot counterpart.

Just to make it clear how incredibly dumb this idea is, here is an actor playing Jean Valjean in one of his songs from the musical.

Now imagine this guy kicking the sick out of a robot version of himself and his adoptive daughter. Now you have this game.

As charming as the idea sounds I hear the game itself is terrible and, since it was made for Windows 95, I wasn't able to get it past the title screen on my computer, even with compatibility mode.

I'm curious, though. Are any of you interested in this? Despite Les Miserables being in the public domain this game is free so you have no excuse not to try it if you're curious.
