Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, Capcom's MMO-style third-person hack and trap-em-up, is soul destroying. It's monstrously difficult, the combat is clunky and it's as slow as a turtle that's carrying 20 turtles on its back. And yet it's phenomenally popular and adored by critics. This is the great conundrum. How can a game so frustrating be so addictive?
Find out the answer to what are The Best PSP Games Of All Time in our ranked list of 16 excellent titles that appeared on Sony's first handheld.
You can play some of them on the Vita via PSN purchasing, but a PSP with a functional UMD drive is the only completely legal way to play games like FF7: Crisis Core.
Some of them, yes. But most PSP games are locked to that system or digitally on Vita. The Vita's second analog stick is amazing for FPS games. I use an emulator to play many PSP games. I know that's illegal, but I wouldn't call it unethical. There's no way to give developers money for these games anymore. Unless you buy their new games. :)
Highly recommend Infected, if you get the chance.
Emulators aren't illegal. Unethical? Maybe. The issue companies have are how you obtained the games. If you got them through legal matters (such as making your own backups of games you own and not distributing them), they're mostly okay with that. If you got the through less..... ethical means, then yeah, it's a no-no in their eyes.
@Magic_Spatula Like he said, there is no legal way to buy most psp games anymore in a way that gives the developers any money. So yes emulators are normally illegal and unethical, but in this case its actually the only way to play some of these games, if you didn't buy the games many years ago.
Yeah they really need to give us a remake of that for PS4/5 I absolutely loved that game. Still the saddest ending to a video game ever.
The fact this has vanilla Dissidia instead of Duodecim tells me not to take the list serious. Duodecim is obviously the superior since it has the same content (story included) from the first game and (much) more
RPad.tv explains the wild popularity of Monster Hunter in Japan by explaining the cultural concept of senpai and kohai. More complex and subtle than Western mentor/protege relationships, the senpai/kohai relationship is a huge part of why Japanese gamers love the Monster Hunter games for PSP.
NOt just monster hunter , everyteam based rpg is affected ( draque 9 , PSuPortable and the list goes on )
Last night on PlayStation Home, Capcom was generous to host a Q&A session to answer many of the burning questions on so many fan's minds and D-GU.com was right there in the mix to bring you the goods on the upcoming Moster Hunters game, Super Street Fighter 4 and much more.
