Qué puedo mencionar que ya no se haya dicho antes? Es literalmente transportarnos al año 1999 con nuestra ps1 y volver a convertirnos en entrenadores de tamagochis con esteroides. El título ofrece lo que a todos nos encantó en su momento, entrenar diferentes razas de monstruos, desbloquear habilidades y participar en torneos, sin embargo, lo único que podría si acaso criticar, es que no el juego es prácticamente el mismo, no agregaron nada importante, al menos, no a primera vista, ya que leí por ahí que se podían desbloquear a los monstruos jefe, pero de momento, no lo he confirmado. De igual forma, sigue siendo una excelente forma de revivir esas épocas de gloria de la ps1.
One of my fav games of all time =)

I love it especially since I was a child :)
just as good as i remember
Received as a wishlist gift from a supporter, and I wanted it explicitly for MR2. Can't recommend this game enough, and I sunk hundreds of hours into MR2 in my youth. The remaster adds a number of QoL features, in addition to actual bug fixes in the original game (ex. King Ape being able to be encountered after his initial window, Strong Glue being able to be removed from your inventory after the Ducken quest, and more). Boss and Enemy-Only monsters, including White Mocchi and White Suezo, are unlockable and raisable in this version, and though the physical act of putting in a CD to generate a monster is sorely missed, the game is better off for it with the CDDB feature allowing you a choice of whatever you might want to raise in any combination, using a guide like the one on LegendCup.com. Mechanics of monster combining are more arcane than any other raising sim out there, and the level of obfuscation of information regarding your monster's stress, lifespan, and stat growth rates can be mitigated with third party tools... but in my opinion, it adds to the mystique of the game, and not having perfect information makes the experience much more fun. Hitting credits on this was a moment of powerful catharsis for me, something I could never do as a kid. Grab a random monster and just dive in, you won't regret it.

This monster-raising game is just amazing!!! I loved playing Monster Rancher 2 when I was a teenager and this updated version is just what the doctor ordered! There have been a massive number of improvements, which include fast-forward mode, faster loading times, and more freezer slots. One of the most prominent features is online PvP where you can pit your frozen monsters against those trained by other breeders! In Monster Rancher 2 DX you can also raise Enemy monsters, something that you cannot do in the original game. Ahhh, words cannot describe how much I am in love with this game!!!

Fantastic game overall, there are some very minor improvements over the original. Being able to electronically get any monster you want that required IRL physical discs on the original is a welcome improvement if you are a fan of the original, however it loses all the charm that the OG version had so I don't recommend getting this if you are new to the series. In my opinion it's really just for lovers of the original game to jump back in because outside that perspective, the game really lacks the content vs the price when weighed up against modern indie offerings at the same price point.
I remember bouncing off of this as a kid because I "couldn't figure out how to do anything right." Now its my favorite game I've played this year because I can't figure out how to do anything right. It doesn't feel like a game that even especially WANTS it's players to be "Good" at it, and sometimes that's refreshing in our current world
