New Digimon Games Info

[Cyber Stryker]

Hey everyone I rented Digimon Rumble Arena 2 for the Xbox and thought I'd put in a review in case anyone's interested.

Be forewarned that this could be considered a spoiler post if you can consider a fighting game with no story as having spoilers.

For the most part this is a pretty solid fighting game and I enjoyed in immensely. The controls are easy to get used to and the sound's not bad, it has some pretty good tunes that feel right for a fighting game. I think just about any Digifan will enjoy this game if they like fighters anyway. To me this game's fighting style is somewhat reminiscent of Super Smash Brothers Melee.

Playing Fields:
Most of these areas have some destructible environment of some sort.
Jungle Ruins: A jungle with a river flowing through it.
Rubber Tree Falls: A giant waterfall with treetops you can bounce on.
Danger Gulch: An old west themed area with mine carts and TNT you can throw at other characters
Lava Lake: A molten lake with thin spire-platforms sticking out of it, a cage and a few rickety rope bridges.
Pier 47: An industrial themed area where cargo moves around on platforms (be careful not to get squished against the side of the screen here, I got boned a few times that way.)
Steamworks: Another industrial area where pipes alternately spew fire or frost at you.
The Cannery: A factory setting with conveyer belts in which if you

Well, Duskmon is a cool addition, but I really wanted Beetlemon, Lobomon, and Kumamon (Chakmon) too. Seriously, Lobomon was probably the most popular of the hybrids; he should've been included.

[Cyber Stryker]

I was disappointed by the lack of Renamon as well, oh well not much we can do about it.

Anyway the game is fun but unlike Smash Bros. it's different multiplayer modes don't get all that addicting, they feel more like a chore sometimes.

Other than that at least graphically this is the best digimon game yet and that alone gives me hope for Digimon World 4. Considering I
