Monster Hunter G PS2.
**Please note: This is for the Japanese PS2 console or region free mod consoles!
Monster Hunter is a third-person action RPG, similar in style to EA's The Lord of the Rings games or Sony's Champions of Norrath. Monster Hunter features both online and offline components, allowing players to adventure on their own or form a party, with up to three friends, for a cooperative adventure using the PS2 Network Adaptor.
As in most role-playing games, players begin by creating a character and customizing their hero's appearance, voice and other attributes. Monster Hunter also has players creating and customizing their characters' equipment. While basic weapons and armor may be purchased from NPCs, the most powerful items in the game are made by the players' characters themselves, from the hides, teeth, scales, claws, and other parts of conquered monsters.
The game is played out through missions you take from the Hunter's Guild (or the village elder if you're playing solo), and these missions range from material gathering, to egg stealing, and even live capture. Combat is all real-time. The left analog stick moves your hunter while the right stick is actually used for attacking. Different directions on the stick trigger different types of attacks, even allowing for some simple combos.
The story in Monster Hunter is a very basic one. You want to be the best Hunter ever, so you go out to prove yourself.
With online multiplayer scenarios, gamers can participate in group sessions of up to four players working as a team to vanquish powerful monsters and accomplish tasks. For instance, work collectively to create traps for unsuspecting monsters or distract a monster's attention as a friend tries to escape from a dragon's nest, toting an enormous egg. Moreover, new quests and items will be available for use on the network. Monster hunters will be overwhelmed by the possibilities that online play lends itself as Monster Hunter reveals the expansive world that awaits them.
