5 out of 5 stars Best Game on the PSP   October 10, 2008
There is a reason this game is selling rediculously in Japan, it is the best game for the PSP. Everything about this game is great. The graphics are one of the best for the PSP, gameplay is fun and exilerating giving you the feeling that you actually accomplished something after taking down a monster, and the level of customization is huge and actually makes a big difference during gameplay. Replay is great too as you can easily log over +300hrs of gameplay. It has also been improved over MHF1 with more balanced weapons and more monsters.

A warning though, MHF2 is hard, very hard. I think that is why this game is so popular because it is not a game everyone can beat. Harcore games will love this game. Those that have a habit of throwing controllers may want to avoid the game as a new PSP will run you $200.



5 out of 5 stars Addicting, but Not For Everyone   October 4, 2008
Before I begin, I just want to warn you that I have a tiny bit of spoilers in this review (referring to the new monsters).

Like other reviewers stated, this game is not for casual players. This is not a game you can just pick up and put down. If you want to get far in this game, you need to be willing to get a hang of the controls for each weapon as well as the camera, pick tactics to defeat each type of wyvern, and spend plenty of time getting items to craft armor and weapons. And trust me, there are A LOT of weapons and armor to craft. Anyway, don't be surprised if you spend hundreds of hours for this game.

Can you solo this game? For offline, both vets and newcomers should have no problem. Online is a different matter. The first part is fairly easy- meaning the non-G Rank quests. G-Rank is more difficult- think of it as a hard mode. I won't lie, some of the quests will make you frustrated to the point you feel like yanking out your hair (ex. dual black gravios and crimson fatalis). However with tactics and choosing the right items, it is possible. Some quests I would not recommend soloing (at least, not all the time), such as dual Kirin. Try teaming up with others if you have problems.

Pros:
- Nice graphics, though some clipping every now and then.
- Offers a challenge.
- Plenty to do (training, offline and online quests, crafting, etc.)

Cons:
- Camera and controls take getting used to.
- Difficulty can cause frustration.
- Online play limited to a small range due to ad-hoc (there are ways around this however).

If you're looking for a quick game to play or something laid-back, or you get easily frustrated, this game is probably not for you. If you like challenges and have patience, then this game might fit your tastes.




5 out of 5 stars Awesome Game!   August 22, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This game is not for the casual gamer. It is in-depth and intense. That being said... I love this game! I can't wait for MHF3! (The new version will be better for those who play alone as you will have fighter cats to help on the quests that are difficult...)

MHF2 (Monster Hunter Freedom 2) is one of the best co-op games available. We bought extra PSP's just so we could all play missions together, after we tested to see if we liked it, because it was so cool. For me the challenge of finding the right weapon to fight the monsters is great, but even better is finding treasures and surviving by your wits and knowledge as a player learns where items can be found and what can be combined to make new items. There are FAQ's online at various game websites that help a player build their character and know what a monster is weak to or which monster can be captured or how to find those rare items to create better armor... even what to take on a mission to help you survive. And the graphics? Stellar! The shooting stars over the desert night is one of my favorites.

There are times when glitches are frustrating, but we have learned how to avoid most of those. Even with the occasional glitches this game is awesome!



5 out of 5 stars One of the greatest PSP remakes of all time   July 23, 2008
This game is, by far, one of the greatest games to hit the PSP. It has a lot of new, highly needed additions to it's PS2 counterpart, but it was well worth it. New Armor, new weapons, and new monster concepts were definitely a great addition. Good difficulty,also.(Especially, once you hit the 6+ star levels.) Very fun when playing ad-hoc with others also. I highly recommend this game. If you buy it and like it, tell your friends. It will only make the game that much more fun.


5 out of 5 stars Very fun   June 25, 2008
The monster Hunter series is one of my favorite ones. The psp MH games are basically the games that didn't come the U.S for the PS2. A word of warning you and the loading screen will be seeing alot of each other. The longest load time is actually starting the quest about 10-20 seconds, once on the quest it goes by pretty fast if you turn on the background loading, but it does use your battery life pretty fast.

AS it is with all the games in the series it has a steep learning curve. You have to observe how the enemy moves, what its weakness is, time your moves, and what combination of armor and weapon to use. There is to much stuff to go into detail, such as the newly added gems that you can make to infuse your armor with new abilities. (different combinations get you various effects, not always good effects)

If you are new it starts out with some training missions to get you started. But I have to say the thing that got me coming back for more was multiplayer, I remember hours of fun trying to hunt down the big monsters to get better armor or weapons. I should mention this game is adhoc meaning you need to be around the people to play multiplayer. If you don't know anyone with the game or a psp, I suggest doing a search for Xlink and buying a wifimax. Follow the instructions and bam you are playing with people around the world.
