Story:Monster Hunter is an online action-hunting game by CAPCOM for the PlayStation 2 released on March 11th, 2004 in Japan, and September 21st, 2004 in North America. The game is a fantasy hunting simulator filled with many deadly monsters. Like actual hunting, successfully killing or capturing the monsters requires significant strategy, skill and involved resource management. While initially considered a commercial failure, Monster Hunter would go on to become one of CAPCOM's highest selling franchises.
Despite featuring an offline mode, Monster Hunter was primarily an online game. The official servers were shut down on December 31, 2007 in North America and Europe, and July 1, 2011 in Japan. This means that it is now impossible to play online on official CAPCOM servers. Despite this, the game still features a small active community on private servers.Show more

There's too many memories to just select one of them. Especially for the new game releases... Which brings me to this. As someone who learned to love monster hunter thanks to the most recent releases... I just want a way to experience the more classic side of the series, or to be more precise here... The origins of this series.
It made me into a Hammer bro when it came out. I Still am one. I still play Monster hunter. I'd love to see all of them even the PSP/3DS ports to come on to GoG.
This is the game that starts a wonderful franchise. So many memories with my hunting friends overcoming increasing obstacles. I recommend at least trying it to get the real hunting experience.
I've only just experienced this game recently but it's amazing that they got so much right with the very first entry of Monster Hunter.
I think it deserves to be remembered by modern audiences for coming up with an amazing game formula that holds on to this day.
The controls take a few hunts to get used to but once you get past that, you'll experience the same addicting Monster Hunter gameplay loop that we all know and love.

MalkariMalkari is a 4X (explore, expand, exploit, exterminate) space strategy game in the tradition of Reach for the Stars and Master of Orion.
However, there is a new twist on the traditional concept here: your solar system has been devastated by a runaway star, ripping the old planets apart into a vast clutter of asteroids. Making things more difficult for long-range planning, the asteroids are all moving at their own particular speeds, so the planet next door may be on the other side of the system a hundred turns from now!
Now that your people have emerged from their long cryo-sleep, you must resume the old struggles against rival guilds...all the while trying just to survive in the strange new Malkari system.4X (explore, expand, exploit, and exterminate)
