The game has been staring at me every day at work, so on Monday I went ahead and rented it. This is my first experience with a Digimon game aside from Battle Spirit, so I don't really know what I was expecting, but I found myself pleasantly surprised. The battle system does tend to get irking at times (ShineGreymon's battle menu is cluttered with Guard commands that I can't seem to get rid of), and the levels are a tad too easy, but the whole evolution system endeared itself to me, to be honest XD I found myself making a game of it and not checking the Evolution maps, so I could be surprised by what I got. It just took me forever to get Lalamon to evolve to Lilamon because she hated me for some reason @_@.
So yes. I like the game mechanics, as well as, to my slight chagrin, the voices. Masaru's voice is just too YOUNG for him, I think, but he's easy to understand, so he gets a plus. I like Yoshino's voice, because from what I hear, she has the same voice as Sora from way back in Adventure. Not the Keyblade Master, mind you. Tohma's (sp?) isn't that bad either, but I haven't really paid attention to his voice, and Ikuto's reminds me of someone but I don't know who. As far as Digimon voices, Lalamon's makes me twitch, as well as Biyomon's. Like, twitch homicidally <.<; I can't stand squeaky voices like that. The others weren't that bad. I just lamented the loss of "Yes, master!" in favor of "Yes, sir!"
Overall, I'd rate the game a 7/10. I won't buy it, except perhaps used, but it's worth playing through at least once.
(In case anyone's wondering, I've gotten to the Ice Labyrinth level.)
