Digimon All-Star Rumble

With the release of season 6 and the highly anticipated Digimon Adventure Season 3 (season 2's much asked for sequel), Digimon All-Star Rumble brings back all the old favorites from seasons 1 and 2 plus some others from 3 and of course 6. You get 12 playable characters that unlock later throughout the game as you go on a mini Digimon World 4-esque journey to find a mon who likely needs unlocking and you do this beating it in a rumble battle. Along the way, you will find BITS and Digimon Cards that will upgrade your character in a Rumble after choosing a slot in the pause menu. All these aspects make the game entertaining and a nice upgrade to its predecessors. You can play through this story-mode with each Digimon and see their take on the tournament journey as well, which makes it even more awesome since the story reflects each individual Digimon's goals and backstory. How can it get such bad reviews? This isn't a perfect game by any means. Being third in the Digi Rumble series, you really don't have a huge selection of Digimon to choose from. I was hoping a couple from Season 4 even or playing the new characters from S6 like Cyberdramon or the even the new Greymon. Unfortunately, they aren't included and honestly is a bad move on the developers for fansake. There are dozens upon dozens of Digimon we love and want to play, but they give us characters from seasons 15 years ago. However, as mentioned, a new season is coming out so maybe it will encourage the gameplay. Pros: - Graphics are pretty rad for the most part (besides item power ups like missles sometimes look chunky) - All-Star cast of 12 Digimon with Digivolutions including some from the latest Season 6 - Digimon World 4-style mini-story per character adds new depth to the fighting game. - The story is about something dark emerging which is why we love Digimon and fighting it out! - Local multiplayer havoc is fun for friends and more who may not even be a fan of Digimon. - When you lose a boss battle, you start in front of the boss again so you never lose progress. (If you lose with a wild Digimon, you restart the level.) Cons: - You can't fall off platforms now like DRA2 so some of the smashing is limited. - Story mode is short and becomes increasingly difficult as enemies attack you and that health reflects your final battle (hope for a capture the flag game if your health is low so you won't be penalized) - Not enough characters to choose from for an All-Star game. - Environments don't affect you and move as much like previous games. (Lava hardly hurts in this one.) - Controls can be clunky and hard to use in battles forcing you to make your same moves multiple times for it to register (i.e. blocking has to be done super early before a hit) - Agumon's voice? All in all, I can't wait to continue beating it and challenging my roommate for some Rumble Arena fun! It's really pretty also. A must for fans who truly know the series and is fun for people who do not to play with unique monsters.

Very entertaining if your a digimon fan. Just wish there were more characters to play as.

My main complaint is that it controls like garbage and is reptitive. Why on earth is it a 3D? These games work so much better in 2D.

Not bad over all but not as much fun as the original ps1 title in the series

it is not stated NTSC-U or NTSC-J and i am unable to play it on my NTSC-J console

I played rumble arena as a child so i thought this game would be good. And i like digimon, so i'm biased. First off! i thought this game was gunna be crap because of all the reviews i've read on amazon, IGN, metacritic and watched on youtube. But then i asked myself, "what makes these reviewer's criticisms credible?" "NOTHING!" ...[sidenote: i have a PhD in videogameology] People complained about the XYZ plane fighting system as opposed to XY (like smash bros. or original rumble arena.) XYZ is not that bad! there are only 8 possible directions you can "flail" your attacks at. ( up,down,left,right, and everything in between. ) So i had really low expectations going into this game, but it's not as bad as everyone is making it sound. The first few battles were good, kinda like throw-away games, and then it starts getting harder. You gotta practice the handful of moves from the "move-list" in the pause menu. There's lots of opportunities to practice different moves. either on the main battles or on the pre-battles when you fight the "minion digimon." Theres also different types of battles like, get the most kills before time runs out, or you have limited lives, or theres-a-bomb-strapped-to-your-back-for-some-reason... and im sure theres more. Its a party fighting game, probably the only party fighting game for xbox 360. aaaand you cannot compare this to mortal kombat or street fighter. They are different types of fighting games. its like comparing mario kart to forza or gran turismo... anyways, it's a fun game. I can't wait til other digimon games come out on xbox. hoping...

My son loves watching Digimon on TV and he loves this game. It's like an adventure finding things and they come into a battle to fight the other enemies. It's a great game and my son is 7 years old.

Would have been perfect just needs more characters is all

Digimon All-Star Rumble is a colorful, party-style fighting game that brings together a variety of beloved Digimon in a unique brawler format.

The graphics are vibrant, capturing the essence of the Digimon franchise, though they may feel somewhat dated compared to more modern titles. The gameplay includes various modes, including single-player challenges and local multiplayer, which enhances its replayability.

While the game lacks a deep narrative or robust online features, it delivers a fun, nostalgic experience for fans of the series. Overall, Digimon All-Star Rumble is an enjoyable brawler that offers lighthearted fun for those looking to engage with their favourite Digimon in a competitive setting

Had to send it back as we lived in the wrong region. But the people were really good and responded back to the email really fast.

Adquiri el producto como regalo para mi sobrino y aunque no esta familiarizado con el anime se entretiene con las misiones y los combates del juego.

Man könnte dazu besser schreiben das es auf Deutschen Geräten nicht spielbar ist. Sonst ist das Spiel Top hab mich derbe gefreut.

No puedo dejar de jugarlo, me lo entregaron esta mañana y me encanta jugar con shoutmon, soy gran fan de la franquicia y me alegra haberlo comprado.
