If you ever have read corresponding manga chapters or watched the anime, it is a must have. But if you haven't seen neither, then it's merely an average fighting game (especially for Capcom's standards).
Btw, Japanese PSX version (don't know about US ver) had much more in-depth & satisfying "Super Story Mode" that follows the events from the manga very closely.

I highly recommend JoJo anime to any fan of anime who loves action...
PSX version obviously can't compete with DC version graphically (arcade original was running on CPS3 board, same as Street Fighter III and such), but gameplay is still intact, and more importantly, considering the fact JoJo game was catered towards fans of the anime/manga more than usual fighting game fans, I'd say that PSX version's in-depth "Super Story Mode" addition outweighs DC version's arcade-perfect port. Besides, if you wanted "serious" fighting game, you really shouldn't get JoJo, anyway.
Of course, that is my opinion...

Not much to add to what Dorikyasu said (except that I hate the animated series, it is pure crap compared to the manga). But even if you don't know the manga, if you are a huge fan of the Vampire series (like I was when I discovered the game) it is a very satisfying game, because it has that "Vampire" feeling in it that no game had after Savior.

It basically chronicles the entire 3rd series of the manga, letting you play the various fights that occur, and different events are set up like mini games throught the game. One section of the story takes place as a side scrolling shooter, one section is a poker game, etc.

If you're any sort of fan of the series, I'd say the PSX version is the better buy.

(But hell, why not get both. I'm sure you could easily find them for $10 or less nowadays)

I've got both and the PSX version is a lot more fun because of the story mode. Also, it's translated in the PAL version so I guess the US version has it too.
