 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.
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.
 too hard for a non hardcore gamer March 15, 2008

sorry guys. I spent many an hour on this game but had to put it down cuz the levels (starting from 3 stars) are just impossible to beat. I love the graphics and the wierd humor of this game (cats that cook your food, wierd english translations etc ) but 20 tries to beat a wyvern or what not is just too much. none of the weapons were easy to use and the game quickly went from fun to a huge drag. there is no doubt that many love this game. few are willing to part with it under $[...] bucks and it has been on the market for a while. Better weapons, the removal of the need to farm and catch bugs(???) would turn me into a lover of this game. i hope you are hearing me capcom!!!
 Terrible, would give negative stars if it was possible March 7, 2008

This is, by far, the worst game I've ever played. First, the camera control is ludicrous, instead of the camera moving automatically in the direction you are traveling, it persists in facing whatever way you manually point it. This means that you will potentially blindly run into enemies during combat b/c you have to manually swing the camera to face opponents who just ran past you at lightning speeds. Second, there is absolutely no plot to this game, it is a mind-numbingly boring pursuit of ingredients to make armor and weapons. Third, the in-game tutorial does teach you to fight, but does very little else for teaching you game mechanics. Last I would say that the supposed "huge game world" is severely disappointing. You are actually limited to a small number of maps that are repetitive and boring. I also found the addition of the cats that can cook for you to be especially stupid, I didn't even bother pursuing that aspect of this game. I would give this game negative stars if it was possible. Do not be lured into buying this game thinking you are going to be roaming around some giant world killing monsters, doing cool quests and collecting magic items while developing a plot.
 Good, but not for everyone. February 24, 2008

Okay I bought this game after viewing several player made reviews. They all basically said the same thing, "takes time". I was willing to accept this, being a fan of RPG-like games, so I bought it. When I played the game for the first time, I immediately noticed the beautiful graphics, but I soon ran into what was, for me, the two aspects of the game that made me quit: Loading times, and weird controls/camera. I have a PSP "Phat" so each load between areas takes about 10 seconds for me. This puts a major cramp on the enjoyability of the game, especially since there is a LOT of areas you have to travel through. The camera and controls take away from the game as well. Combat is made extremely difficult because of the controls, and the fact that the camera doesn't adjust automatically will cause you do die alot during combat (if you aren't used to it yet). If you think you can get around these two aspects of the game, then this might possibly be one of the best games for the PSP. If not, then don't bother buying it.
