Me me, I'm a tan man and Monster Hunterman.
I reinstalled Monster Hunter Freedom Unite after dropping it somewhere around a year ago. I'm definitely enjoying myself a lot more, I kind of figured out that I didn't need every tool for every mission, and I crafted the Deathprize which is a kickass little sword that paralyzes real easy.

Unfortunately every other aspect of this game is very hard. And it does little things to really make you hate the critters you have to kill. The Blangonga, for example, is a giant ice Babboon/Mandrill that summons little baby Ice Mandrills, vomits freezing spray and occasionally just throws a big chunk of ice at you. Its cousin, the Congalala, is this dirty fucking thing:

Rest assured, if you didn't watch this video, that is a giant pink hippo-faced ape that uses fart attacks altered by what vegetation it eats. Literally 100% of the descriptions for a mission involving these bastards can be summed up as "I got pooped on by a giant pink fucking ape! KILL IT TO DEATH"

I'm thinking I'll pick up MH 2 for PS2 since that's in my price range. Seriously though, these games are in a league of their own. Nothing quite like them, and nothing with that same level of 'Be prepared or your ass is grass.'

E: Rayman Origins is pretty much 500 times better than the original. It's like drowning in cheese whiz instead of having some sliced mozzarella. Or something.
