Ah, so many experiences with Monster Hunter...a lot of bad ones, but there were a few good ones. Here's one- MHFU, new Jungle in area 6. Two velociprey try to pounce on me at the same time, but instead end up colliding in mid-air above me and flying back! And another great velociprey moment was the first time they decided to work for me. The Rathian had just gone to sleep when I entered area 7, but instead of attacking me they ran away and started attacking the Ian! It was annoying another time when they killed her and I wanted to capture her, but that first time was hilarious! Oh, here's another good one- I knock Yama Tsukami down and carve his back while he's doing his hanging around thing, and when he finally rears up and sends my character flying he goes straight into the exit! GOAL!!!! There was another great one with the Teostra in the Volcano...I clipped its wing and dropped it, then cut off its tail with the next swing, and finally as it was getting up I hit him in the head and he died! After all the trouble Teostra had given me, that was just awesome! I have plenty more (Descendents of the King - domestic dispute between the Los and Ian, the teleporting Diablos, the undead Kut-Ku, etc.) but I'll end with this last one that you may find hard to believe- This was a few years ago when my friend and I had just started playing MHF2 and were doing The Reckless Bulldrome Hunter mission. My friend started a little earlier than I did, but we were both still trying to get used to the PSP controls and as a result the Bulldrome was a pretty tough opponent. It was normal enough at first, but then it did something that was either a glitch in the game or less than a 1 percent chance of happening; that freaking Bulldrome burrowed underground and attacked my friend from below like a Blagonga! We were both like WTF?!!! It's a Bullgopher!!! Are you serious?!! And the attack was so powerful it almost instant KOed my friend and he had to leave the area and heal! It only did it once and since then I've never seen a Bulldrome do that again, but still that $λ!τ was crazy!
