Monster Hunter Freeom is a video game for the PlayStation Portable composed of a complex mix of adventure, hack 'n' slash, and RPG elements. The game's aim is to complete quests given by various people in the goal of attaining higher and more prestigious hunting ranks. This game is the third installation in the Monster Hunter series and is based mostly on the second game, Monster Hunter G. However, this game contains many changes in order to allow playing through most quests alone. It has been critized for its unusually long loading-screens and its slow pacing, both of which have been improved in the sequel.
