The Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite, the expanded version of the Monster Hunter Freedom 2 comes from one of the game manufacturers of Japan. The new and improved version comes with new content and many improvements. The best features of this improved Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite game are its great visuals and magnificent audio. The data install feature improves the load time of the PSP game immensely.
The Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite has been improved with more missions, monsters and equipment than the Monster Hunter: Freedom 2. As shown in the release demo, in the Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite (PSP), a new type of quest has been introduced. This introductory “Epic Hunting Quest” enables the gamer to dual 4 different monsters one by one in one single quest. In the Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite game the player can get up to 10 rarities of weapons and armours. The player can seize up to 20 equipment sets, 10 equipment pages and 99 of each item present in the box. Weapons are also upgraded to purple sharpness form white sharpness in the new and improved version of Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite.
A huge number of weapons are present in the Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite each of which has its own special skills and control. There are two different types of armour viz. the blademaster’s armour and the gunner’s armour. The other normal armourscan be upgraded with the “Armour Sphere” option and the abilities of the armour can be improved by using the “Decorations” option. Though Monster Hunter: Freedom Unite is an expanded version of its forerunner, its add-ons and improvements are significant. They come in many different flavours like the addition of 50 new quests and several monster classes.

The PSP is roaring like never before and keeps ringing these bells of new milestones — whether by the virtue of some kind of miracle or due to the fact that one of their games seems to have reached the point of no return.
The Japanese game Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G is on a winning streak with an unbelieving, and relentless show of sales from the time of its launch. It has now crossed the 2 million mark and is showing no signs of abating. Of course, we have our Grand Theft Auto, which is also busy making money and breaking records – but this Japanese game is exclusively and only available for the PSP.
Are there chances that this game is hyped, lacks substance and moves with a false momentum? There have been some comments that the game has a lot to do with the performance of the others in the multiplayer mode there are some who don’t really buy the hype.
There have been some interesting view points about how the Japanese have different tastes and the success might not ring any bells in the US or UK.
Although the game has received mixed reactions from different people, most others are generally euphoric about the game. I loved it myself when I did try my hand on this one and it really isn’t an arcade game. It is arduous; it will test your skills and you will be hooked nonetheless.

Here’s some news – PSP is still a big name in Japan and is really raking in the cash, if the recently reported numbers are anything to go by. No one expected the PSP to be as much of a hit as it is now. It might be surprising to note that the Sony PS3 on the other hand isn’t doing nearly as well as the PSP.
For the record, PSP units sold more than even the hugely popular DS lite.
Stating verbatim from the psp.ign.com
“The PSP continues to dominate hardware over in Japan. For the week covering April 14 to April 20, Media Create’s sales charts put Sony’s portable at 85,421 units, besting the DS Lite’s 44,551 units and the Wii’s 44,241 units.
It wasn’t all good news for Sony, though. The PS3 fell yet again, down to 7,438 units for the week. The PS2 dropped down to 6,545 units, with the Xbox 360 completing Team Low Sales with 1,076 units.
The PSP’s success is, of course, attributed to Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, which sold an additional 123,855 units over the week. Capcom has already shipped two million units for the title, which will likely soon overtake its predecessor, Monster Hunter Portable 2nd, in overall sales.”
So is the success of PSP attributed to the success of Monster Hunter in any way? You bet it is. The numbers the PSP and other gaming devices are selling at is a testimony to the fact that games have been hugely popular among teenagers. An entire industry thrives on this. The success of Xbox, PS1, 2 and 3 is always attributed to the popularity of their games. Games are not reality; games depict violence and games are often said to be the release for all kinds of perverse desires people seem to have; does the increase in games mean that more and more people are craving for the unrealistic release?

We reported earlier on the record setting pace of the PSP game Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G in Japan, and it seems as if the game simply cannot be stopped. Monster Hunter has now surpassed the 2 million units sold mark in Japan, and without even being released for an entire month! Many games would never dream of such success in their wildest fantasies, but Monster Hunter is living it.
The record officially makes Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G the best-selling Japanese PSP game of all time, and it is clearly a reason why the PSP has recently overtaken DS lite sales in Japan as well. In fact, statistics show it is currently the second most successful game out there across all consoles, with only Mario Kart Wii topping it. Of course the question on everyone’s minds is when the game will finally make its way here. Given its current success a European edition is inevitable, but the speculation currently puts the release date at around September at best. This is a long time to wait, although some dedicated and resourceful PSP users ought to be able to get their hands on imports. Some people are also sceptical whether or not the game will achieve the same amount of success outside of Japan. We will just have to wait and see.

One million units sold is quite a lot with a video game. Especially when these sales figures are only coming from one country. But for “Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G”, that is but one small benchmark.
The game hasn’t been available in Japan for more than three weeks and already it has surpassed the 1,500,000 units sold mark. These are numbers over which other titles can only dream.
This begs the question when the game will be released in Europe and America. But one can also have doubts whether the “Monster Hunter” will see the same success outside of Japan.
