I cant believe Gamespot gave this game only 6.5 points! This game is one of the best games on PSP up to date. I can't believe that gamespot gave it only 6.5 points, that’s not fair...
The graphics are great on the PSP up to date and the sound sounds incredibly great especially if you are playing with headphones that support Dolby Surround.
The story is not ideal but there are a lot of quests that you can do, many different types of equipment and weapons that you can modify later on in the game. There is a big variation of different monsters, everything from small dragons, to huge flying wyverns. The models seem to be filled with hundreds of polygons and very well animated.
The game also features some kind of a farm with several cat-like creatures that will take care of it while you are away, you can harvest crops on that farm, and you can mine and find different types of ore and metals (that you can later use to create weapons or armor), you can also catch fishes and gather bugs and mushrooms. And later in game you can upgrade your Kokoto farm and buy new plants and stuff, and that’s really cool!
Of course there are some down sides to, like: You cant rotate the camera while you are in the village or when you are inside buildings, but when you are on a quest you can rotate it diagonally and horizontally, you can also invert x and y axis if you feel uncomfortable with the default setting, and the most disappointing thing about Monster Hunter Freedom is that it does not have support for infrastructure gaming.. Of course you can play it with your friend via the AD-Hoc p2p connection.

And there is one very important thing to remember about this game if you are planning on buying it….
This is not the kind of game that you will play while riding the school bus, or in the school break.
Because the quest takes pretty long time to complete, something from 20 to 50 minutes. But you can still play it at home or when you’re taking a plane for a long distance (that’s what I will do soon ;)

I have never played original Monster Hunter for Playstation 2, but after playing Monster Hunter Freedom I sure will.
