Digimon World definitely could have been better. This is not one of the best games out there nor is it the worst.
The way you have to raise your digimon is very creative, though the training gets extremely boring after a couple of minutes. You also have to travel to much.
The graphics are pretty decent on this game, though I have seen better. The digimon look like they do on the show which is a nice little thing.
The battling is terrible, though. You can only really give suggestions of what the digimon should do. It does not always listen to you and it takes a while to finish a battle. It is supposed to be a one player battle versus computer, but it seems must like a computer versus computer battle.
If you are a digimon fan, then you should get this game. If you are just an rpg fan, then you might enjoy this game for a little while, but not much after that. If you don't even like rpgs, then do not get this game.
