Kyro writes: Nobody can doubt that the Monster Hunter franchise is huge. Though it may not see the same reception as it does in Japan, the franchise has developed a pretty large fanbase here in the states. Featuring simple mission-based gameplay, coupled with a deep weapons and armors system, the Monster Hunter games are great, long lasting adventure RPGs. With Monster Hunter Freedom Unite's recent release on the PSP and Monster Hunter 3 soon seeing release on the Wii, now is a great time to jump on this highly-acclaimed series.
GameQuest Direct knows that as well, and has informed Game Podunk that they have received reprints of Monster Hunter Freedom 2 for the PSP and are selling them at the price of $29.99.
A posting on the well known hacking site Wololo has revealed that the PSP Monster Hunter games are capable of allowing PSP emulation on the Playstation Vita. This is bad news for anybody who wants to actually play the series.
I already D.L MHU on my Vita from the PSPgo in March when i frist got my Vita and I put VC2 on it to.
What's the point of PSP emulation on the Vita again? Doesn't it already support many PSP games already?
Chris Buffa (Modojo): Sony's PlayStation Vita is the most powerful handheld gaming system in history.
All of its bells and whistles won't mean a thing, though, without must have video games.
The launch looks stellar, with potential hits like Uncharted: Golden Abyss and Wipeout 2048 speeding to shelves February 22.
Unfortunately, that lineup won't topple Nintendo. For Sony's portable to have a realistic shot at market dominance, it'll need to host these big time franchises.
Im pretty sure that Call of Duty will push the Vita in the west and a new Final Fantasy title would be killer as well. But what i would love to have is a new GTA title that would be the bomb on the Vita.
Kingdom hearts will definitely be on it. If there's one thing Nomura loves it's a spin off. (And who'd have thought that a guy with such a dark demeanor could make a game like Kingdom Hearts.) But the vita would be better off with original IP's instead of portable pre-existing ones. Luckily it has a few.
Kingdom Hearts,Monster Hunter,Call of duty,Final Fantasy,GTA,Metal Gear Solid,God of war
the best games
PushSquare: "Japan loves Monster Hunter. To the point where it's pretty much a defining title in the handheld space. But while Japan goes nuts over the convoluted adventure thing, we'd rather stick pins in our eyes. Needless to say Capcom's latest Monster Hunter Dual Pack -- due for release at a low, low $14.99 -- isn't particularly instilling us with much excitement."
im not sure what the article means. i guess he doesn't like monster hunter? i mean 2 monster hunter games for 15 bucks sounds awesome. i didn't even know there was a dual pack coming out, till now, which is pretty sweet. ill be picking it up for that price.
Yeah, screw the idea of getting two 100+ hr games for $15
What a horrible idea indeed
Not everyone can afford a Vita so 2 Monster hunter games is enough time for you to enjoy before getting a Vita.
Awesome and it's great to hear Monster Hunter will be coming to Wii.
To get these good games (and PSP, since I don't have one).
I never played Monster Hunter myself but I know a friend who loves the game and I've watched him play a couple of times and it seems pretty cool.
