This series&#8217; unique cooperative play system allows friends to team up and hunt these huge monsters together, fostering new kinds of communication between players. The &#8220;Monster Hunter Craze&#8221; has been a powerful force in Japanese gaming.<\/p>\n\n  <p>Since its release on March 27th 2008, &#8220;Monster Hunter Freedom Unite&#8221; has ushered in ground-breaking gameplay characterized by a new style of player communication. For over 2 years, more and more users have been enjoying this new experience. The popularity of the title remains strong with progressive price cuts introduced with &#8220;Monster Hunter Freedom Unite, PSP\u00ae The Best&#8221;. With over 4 million copies shipped, it&#8217;s obvious that more and more users are finding the pick-up-and-play style of &#8220;Monster Hunter&#8221; appealing.<\/p>\n\n  <p>As of March 18th, we have begun to offer this hit title with PlayStation\u00aeStore as a downloadable title for the PSP\u00ae and PSP\u00aego. In addition, the first spin-off in the &#8220;Monster Hunter&#8221; series, &#8220;MONHAN NIKKI POKAPOKA AIRU MURA&#8221; is scheduled for release in August. This title aims to broaden &#8220;Monster Hunter&#8217;s&#8221; appeal to even more female users by leveraging a collaboration with the SANRIO&#8217;s mega-popular &#8216;Hello Kitty&#8217; character. Even better, the latest title in the series, &#8220;Monster Hunter Freedom 3&#8221;, will be released at the end of 2010, further strengthening the ever-popular &#8216;Monster Hunter&#8217; brand.<\/p>\n\n<p>As always, we at Capcom will continue to strive to develop new and original games that appeal to a broad audience around the world, and maximize the value of our well-loved brands.<\/p>\n\n  <br \/>\n  <br \/>\n  <h4>\u3010Product Details\u3011<\/h4>\n<b>&#8220;Monster Hunter Freedom Unite&#8221;<\/b>\n <table border=\"1\" cellpadding=\"5\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"mbn\">\n <tr>\n <td width=\"30%\" class=\"blue\">1.
