Crisis Core actually has story, cutscenes, etc. Monster Hunter is great if you love monster grinding on the go, but I suggest Crisis Core since the story is great and you'll really connect with the characters. Monster Hunter is fun but is more of a brainless romp. After you're done playing you'll ask, "What the hell did I just play?"
I have 40 hours into Crisis Core, really enjoyed it and did everything there was to do more or less. I'm about 90 hours into Monster Hunter and I am still really only at the tip of the iceberg as far as content available to me, it's also great and very addictive.
Best bang for your buck is monster hunter, but it is difficult, if you want something that is easier go with crisis core, if you want a lasting challenge go with monster hunter.
I have to vote for crisis core, mainly because I haven't played monster hunter. However what I can say is Crisis core is the only game to almost make me cry, because I was that connected with the characters. It easily is one of the best stories in a game by far. So if u are looking for great gameplay with an amazing story go for Crisis Core
crisis core too dull it may seem fun but its just a spin off and storybefore final fantasy vii ithink theres really no point unless you are reallyinto final fantasy vii, get monster hunter this game will keep you going takes a while to get the rare items to make agood armor
I'd say both are must-have PSP games. But if you have to pick one, I'd say go for Crisis Core if you're into more story and character driven games, or Munster Hunter if you're into challenging games that can last for hundreds of hours.
If you've played and enjoyed FFVII, then Crisis Core is a great supplement to that. If you have a friend or two that play Monster Hunter, you'll have a blast going on hunting quests together with them.
i 'd say Crisis Core. It's not only the story , but it has much replay value too. But if you have friends who also own Monster Hunter , tht'a what you should buy...the ad-hoc is great...
I have Finlay Fantasy Crissie Core. and its extremely satisfying and enjoying it. (DARN THIS BOSS BATTLE.. grumble). But im embarrassed to say that i don't own monster hunter and i really want. so lets just say i wish i had an opinion on this.
Depends on what kind of games you like really. It's pretty hard to compare 2 different Genre of games, but as far as hours played and time spent, I spent much much more time on Monster Hunter than Crisis Core. Both Are really good games but it's really up to you.
I prefer FFVIICC, then again ive played through FFVII multiple times and enjoyed FFVIICC's continuation/extension of the story. In total i think ive got about 100 hrs on it. i played through by myself on normal mode, then had new game + on hard mode with a walkthrough to try get 100%. Then after not playing it for a while i started it again on normal just cause i like the story. only played about 10hrs of monster hunter... i guess it really is a love it or hate it kind of game.
Id say Crisis Core is a much better game. Wonderful storyline and fun game play makes ita much better bet for you. Monster Hunter is a fairly good game as well, but most people tend to love it or hate it.Monster Hunter offers more content and challenging gameplay, but unless your friends have the game as well and are going to play as well you will probably get frustrated or bored with it quicker.
I found that I lost interest in Crisis Core after about 10 hours.
MHFU was quite the opposite. After a few great sword upgrades and downing my first Wyvern, I was hooked. Great swords are so damn awesome!

I bought monster hunter about a week ago and I'm never in the mood to play it but when I actually do start playing again I play for hours on end and wonder why I don't play it more often... It's weird like that. It's been said already but MHFU is a VERY difficult game especially if you're playing alone but that just means that when you FINALLY take down that monster that you've spent days trying to kill there's not many things that give you a better feeling.
