Gaming Union: "Everyone is aware how huge Monster Hunter is, and the release of Monster Hunter Tri only helped to further its reputation. However, where the franchise has arguably been most successful is on Sony's portable console, the PlayStation Portable.
The last main version to be released on the PSP was Monster Hunter Freedom 2 in August, 2007, as Freedom Unite was essentially an expansion, and with 2010 fast approaching, there were some doubts about whether Capcom wanted to move away from the PSP."
With recent release of Monster Hunter Generations, Bit Cultures lists out our Top 10 Monsters from the series. From the terrifying to the hilariously named.
VGChartz's William D'Angello: "Today we take a look at the top 10 best-selling games for yet another platform. Up to this point we have looked at the original PlayStation, the Nintendo 64, the PlayStation 2, the original Xbox, the GameCube, and the Nintendo DS. This week we are taking a look at Sony's first handheld, the PSP.
The PSP is the ninth best-selling video game platform in history and the fourth best-selling handheld in gaming history. It is also the best-selling handheld not released by Nintendo. It sold 80.82 million units in its lifetime."
Stupid Naughty Dog abandoning Jak & Daxter. I get wanting to do something else but its been 11 years since 3 came out.
"Welcome to the ‘Top 10’ weekly feature. Each week we will be taking a look at the top 10 selling games in a particular genre, platform, most recent month, even sprinkling in the top 10 selling games from a past year.

As a note all sales figures are retail only.
This week we will be looking at the top 10 selling PSP games. Last week we looked at the top 10 selling DS games and the week before that the top 10 selling games in 2009."
great numbers, other than MH, Midnight Club and GTA i bought and played all the others.
amazing handheld!
To be fair most of the time they are fairly accurate... it's just sometimes they can be so far off it's hilarious, God of War III is still under-tracked by over 1 million units lol!
sick, hope it doesn't take forever
what do you think if they made the next one for PS3?
comment and reply below please
Freedom was the whole portable aspect of Monster Hunter and it appears MH sells much better on the handheld machines.
I think MH3 on PS3 would be excellent as I'm a huge fan of the PSP versions but I really don't think it's going to sell as well as a lot of you think.
Incidently, how well did the Wii version do? Practically everyone in Japan owns a Wii and if MH Tri didn't do so good there's your answer.
I don't care about sales. I love the game and REALLY wanna see an HD version of the Wyverns and Elder Dragons to take down but I don't think it would do quite as well as everyone expects.
