Monster Hunter

Just thought I'd post it here since the series is gaining in popularity: anyone here play any Monster Hunter games?

I played only the PS2 version, I try to have the psp ones but I'm in need of money
The game is interesting but it's very fun to play in group alone you will get bored easily.

I only bought Tri like last year and it has become one of my favourite franchises ever. I love the whole idea of the setting, and the clear feeling of an ecosystem they're pulling on each and every creature in it.

I still think Monster Hunter would be more or less what would come out if you took the giant preds in Felarya and removed their sapience

I have a wii now, so I'm planning on getting MH3 if anyone's interested. I know at least one other felarya member who has MH3 as well.

Likewise, I believe there was a thread dedicated to video game names so we could find each other on consoles and PC and stuff.

I bought Monster Hunter Freedom Unite for the PSP, and had a fairly good time playing it, but then I bought Monster Hunter Tri for the Wii, and was slightly dissapointed. Maybe because it's mostly the same thing, like you have almost the same weapons and 90% of the enemies are just different coloured versions of the same four creatures.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great series, I just expected more of an improvement in a sequel.

Actually Tri has pretty much no recolors, it's all largely new monsters and old originals

With Rathalos and Rathian it doesn't count because they're the male and female of the same species

Yeah, sorry. I got about twenty minutes into Tri, found my self fighting a creature which reminded me of a velociraptor, thought "What! You again?" and logged out. I'll probably play more now I know the monsters are better.

Those aren't even the same raptors. Have you never heard of regional counterparts? XD
