Pokemon eat your heart out!

That's right you heard me, this game is better than Pokemon. I have both games, so don't think I don't know what I'm talking about. If you liked Pokemon, than you will love this game. Even if you never played or if you hate Pokemon, you will probably love this game. It's great for all ages and it is so addictive. You create monsters (that's right create, not find) by placing different cds in at a certain time. You can use any cds, whether it's a video game, computer, music, or dvd (Hint: multi-cd games or sets usually make pure monsters). You can then take your monster and train him to fight in battles. If you get tired of your monster or he dies (yes, they can die if you do not take proper care of them), you can either combine him with another breed to get a different one, or just make a new one. The great thing about this game is the fact that every cd makes a monster. And a cd always makes the same monster, which is great if your trying to get all the breeds. Also, a certain game or music cd will always make that monster. Let me explain so you don't think I'm repeating myself. Tomb Raider 2 makes a rock/rabbit monster. No matter who's copy of Tomb Raider 2 you use, you will always get that monster whether it's yours, your friend's, or even Blockbuster's (this is usually the case but, it sometimes varies, especially with music cds). And there is an almost endless amount of monsters (more than 151!). I'm sending this message out to video game fans all over BUY THIS GAME!

Raising a Monster on this game provides hours of fun

Monster Rancher for the Playstation is a great game. You pick what type of monster you want to have, give it a name then start with the fun part. You train it in many different activities to improve speed, agility and HP points that help them in battles to win and stay alive. Then every couple of weeks there will be battles you are able to compete in with money prizes. You need to use some of the money to buy food for your monster. It usually likes a certain kind of food. If it likes you, the food your are giving it and the amount of training you're doing it will be happy and glad to listen to you. But sometimes with the wrong food or not resting your monster enough it won't listen to you during battles or training. If your monster does good enough in battles in certain areas it will gain new, stronger moves which bring the opponent's HP way down. This a must-have game for any PS owner.

Man this Game ROCKS

okay so most people hate it because they have a new game now and the fad has passed but you gotta admit breading and raising a monster is fun. Then they added battling that makes it more fun and sets a high but acheiveable goal for you . I'd buy it but I'd buy it used and save...

This is a game that you are the breeder and you have to take care of a monster. I got this for my B-Day, and I thought it wasn't any good. But When I started playing it, I LOVED it. You can pop in your cds and get a extra rare monster. Whenever I'm not on neopets(as dragon___kid) I'm playing this game and working on my golem.

NOT LIKE POKEMON

This game is nothing like pokemon! Almost none of these monsters are cutsy cutsy. You raise monster to battle on your ranch. You give them work to raise stats and get money, then you battle them in a totaly non-turnbased fighting style. So don't get this confused with a pokemon mimic, it's not!

Simple & Effective!

Monster Rancher is brilliant for kids of 5 or adults of 50! It addictive and fun. Basicly, you get a PS/PC game, DVD or music CD and put it in your playstation and out comes a monster. Some are cute, some are nasty but all these little creatures have a mission in life. To win tournaments. You can feed them, train them, play with them, give them things, rest them, enter them into tournamentsand there are many twists turns and surprises in store as well. You will find yourself beginning to get attached to the little things but don't forget that they are mortal. The graphics are pretty good and this last a good few months at least. BUY IT NOW ALONG WITH FF8 AND MGS

This Game Is Addictive
