I really am. My son and I play anytime we get free time. Personally, I am a big fan of dragons, so obviously this was a natural pick for me. One of the best games I have ever played and the dragons look great.
Just sell all your other games here on Amazon, because since I bought this game I have played almost nothing else... 460 hours and still going.

It is a skill based game, your hunters attributes dont really change (yes there are things that can enhance your stamina or attack stregth etc), however you dont level up like other games. the game is ultra realistic and you really have to learn how to kill these things. Yes, the biggest downside to the game is the camera, you will read this through all the serious reviews because its difficult to control especially during the battle sequences when it would have been nice to incorporate some auto camera funtionality. But that would be my only complaint. To compliment the game, make sure you go buy the WIFI Max... it allows you to network with up to 3 other players at a time on line to fight through some of the more difficult baddies that cannot easily be solod.

Some other online reviews state 1000's of items and 100's of monsters... quite a bit exagerated but there are hundreds of items and probably 30+ monster types. Some of the missions are redundant but no game is perfect. If you want to enjoy beautiful graphic scenery and the thrill of the hunt of mythic creatures, then give it a shot. well I could go on and on, I just wanted to put something up here as a tribute to this Hall of Fame game... good luck, time for me to bag an Fatalis... :)

Be sure to look for Monster Hunter Freedom 2 in September '07!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Monster Hunter, June 6, 2006

Indeed, as the title says, this game is about Monster Hunting. For the first time on a PSP, the player is offered a respectivly wide range of customization for their character which they can create in the very beginning of this game.

In my opinion, Monster Hunter is indeed one of the few extremely good games out for PSP at this moment. However, this game is not for a person who wishes to kill everything in their path. There are, at times, moments where you HAVE to be paitent with what you are doing, or you will die a very horrible and annoying death. Your character does get tired, and can pass out causing the forefit of a Quest. Also, the fighting system is slower than a hack and slash, more realistic then most games where your character will slash and hack, but get tired in the process.

I highly reccommend this game to those who love to kill monsters and like the real life fighting system as they play. However, those who like face paced fighting games, i don't believe this would be for you. Happy Gaming!

5.0 out of 5 stars a hardcore gamers dream, June 5, 2006

Monster hunter Freedom is a hardcore gamer dream and a casual gamers nightmare. Monster hunter Freedom set you into a pre- historic type world as a life of a hunter. before you start playing you can customize your your hunter with a decent amount of faces, hairs styles and colors,skin color and vocies. also the option of making a male and female hunters. after you made your hunter, you'll wake in your house ready to start you life as a hunter. Now here's hurdle number one thats as far as the "story" is going to take you. you must be a self-motivated to play this game at it's full potential. The first 11 missions you play are mainly the tutorial mission it also where it will seperate the hardcore from the casual/non-gamer becase the game dosen't offer instant gratification you have to "work for it" so to speak learn the area to find herbs and berries, killing monsters for food and bones and learning how to use your weapons there no auto lock for targting monsters so you have to learn how to hit the monster on you own. there are mainly 5 differnt weapon types(Sword and Sheild,Great Sword,Lance,Hammer,Bow Gun) and 1 "secret" type(Duel Swords) each with there strengths and weaknesses.If your still playing after the tutorial mission be prepare to be hooked you'll start to fight boss type monster call wyverns these beast will have you blood pumping and fingers shaking as to take down these monsters of inceasing ferocity.Kill wyverns and carving there body parts to make stronger weapons and armor is extremely rewarding as it feel you work hard for something that you can be proud of so to speak.If you can play pass the slow but necessary start monster hunter freedom will reward you and your friends with well over 300+ hours of gameplay.
