    The soundtrack is alright, the sound effects are somewhat less than impressive, and the graphics could have used a little more touching up. What annoyed me the most is the "tapping" sound your character makes when he walks..... I could have pulled a better game out of my ass! The only thing saving this game from getting a lower grade from me is my soft spot for the anime!

    There's more to do than in the first one. The graphics are O.K. Look at it this way: There are worse!

    I was surprised. I didn't expect it to be this good and be digimon. (No offense.)

" and "Profoundly mediocre, the kind of game that only hardcore Digi-fans will like.", and i personally Love this game i remember little about the show. it was ok at best and i got tired of it by season 3. There is also the fact i hate turn base games all together except this one. A giant Map with almost endless playable character options, is why i love the game, but i can quote another siting that state the opposite again, "For a game whose main gameplay component is building up your characters, Digimon World 3 makes the process needlessly complicated and annoying. ". Another thing that makes this game great for us, is the same thing the "critics" hate? looks like long time overdue on new and better critics who might take more than two seconds at a game i have put over 180 hours into. Also in the last passage i sited, him saying about the good music, i find the music annoying and keep it muted, as there was no talking back then (witch i have no problem with) there is no need for the "catchy" style music. The story of this game is great, and purposely different from the show so the two never needs it integrand, unlike something else sited in this page. Last but not lest, "The third time is definitely not the charm", the other two was ok at best and really tiring, this really was the charm, to bad dumb critics like this blew that for you. i would love to see a new 2015 Digimon Online make for real where we can play as digimon, i know this will likely never happen but that is my vote and option. thank you all, hope you enjoyed.… Collapse

    Profoundly mediocre, the kind of game that only hardcore Digi-fans will like. [June 2002, p.102]

    Despite some impressive world-map graphics and extremely catchy anime-style music, Digimon World 3 disappoints in countless ways.
