Great Game
PostedFebruary 22, 2009
Great game overall. I must say this is a must buy for anyone who owns a PSP and has a love for RPG's. Graphics of course are not as good as they could be, but since it is a portable gaming device, it has good graphics. For some that say there is no story line I call blasphemy, the story line is just not very evident. Of course from its predecessor, Monster Hunter for the PS2 with the dual Analog fighting, this had great dynamics with controls with the use of only one analog stick. I have spent almost 20 hours into this game and still have not done all that I wanted. For those that want replay-ability, just go co-op and have fun with friends or people you just met online. I have recommended this game to many of my friends with PSP's and they love this game. So for those who aren't sure, rent it anywhere you can find it and see the fun that it is.

One of the greatest psp titles ever
PostedFebruary 19, 2009
This game is a must buy! I have spent hundreds of hours playing and still have plenty to do. The length of the game is amazing, I know people who have spent thousands of hours playing and still have not done everything. I love it becasue it is one of the few psp ction games that isn't a button masher. The challenge is great. It can be VERY hard at times but it keeps the game interesting. Controls are ok. They did a great job for a psp but controls for some weapons could be better. Graphics are amazing for the psp. Capcom did a great job with that. Interface is nice, but could use a little work. It can get a little bit frustrating at times but it doesn't really distract from the gameplay. Length is great. As i have said before you ca play for thousands of hours and still have alot to do. Sound is ok. Great for a psp, but still could have been slightly better. The soun will sometimes hiccup but it is very rare. But one of the few bad things is the story line...or lack there of. There isn't a story at all. You play, but there isn't any plot and no characters. But over all I think this is a must buy for any psp owner into an action game.

The Best Game In Awhile
PostedJanuary 7, 2009
This is by far one of the best games i have been privileged to play in quite awhile. it has 600-1000 hours of play to fully complete the whole game multiplayer quests and all. that is a great amount of time to spend on one game i know. most of you are probably thinking why would i spend that long on one game when i could be playing other shorter games,because this game is worth it. if you own a psp this is a must have game. i have owned this game twice. the first time i bought it i skipped the tutorial and tried to play it,i then failed miserably and returned the game thinking it was ridiculious. i bought the game a second time along with one of my friends and after going through the tutorial i realized that this game had great potential. the day i bought the game i spent 17hrs playing it. i just couldn't put it down. The multiplayer feature is great. it is a bit harder than the normal quests but well worth trying.i've only been able to play multiplayer with two people not the full four yet,so it may be easier with four. the only downside to the multiplayer is that sometimes when you and a friend are in the same room you don't see monsters in the same place as the other person. if the monster is killed by either player you both see it die but it does make it a little more complex when your friend is trying to hold off all the monsters while you fight the boss and he can't see the monster hitting you. the gathering hall is a fun place. you can get drunk by sitting at the table and pressing the circle button and thier are other emotes you can do at the table. it makes for hours of laughter for you and your friends. The controls to the game are fairly simple but take a little getting used to for some people. the camera isn't always in the best position but you can rotate it. the only problem with that is when you are near a wall sometimes the camera won't rotate for you. that can get a little frustrating sometimes. The selection of weapons is nice. you have plenty to choose from.as you progress through the game you get materials to make better weapons and cooler to look at too. some of the weapons can get frustrating because of the slow swing or the aiming but you just have to find to find a weapon you like. some people complain that the sword and shield is bad at blocking because they say that the shield doesn't work and glitches when hit. this has never occurred for me. the shield is small and for it to block and attack the hit must land on the shield,so you have to learn how to position your shield to block hits. you get good at this given some practice. The graphics are good. the cut scenes look great,but the in game graphics are nothing spectacular. they are good but they could be better. The sound is good. the quality is great,but the music itself is nothing special. it would have been nice to have been able to make a playlist of your own music from your psp and listen to it while playing but that is not an available option. The single player game is good,but i much prefer the multiplayer. they have plenty of quests available to challenge your skills and a variety of monsters to entertain you. the wyverns present quite a challenge. they are hard to kill and generally have special attributes(or "powers") that make it more difficult to fight them compared to normal monsters. Hope this helps anyone who is having a time making a decision regarding buying this game. i definitly recommend it.
