Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Review | Gamereactor UK

GR-UK writes: "It's a game built more for teams of adventurers than the lone wolf, as not only does the rock, scissors, paper dynamic between monster and hunter weapon types enforce the need for variety to quicken the downing of foes, but it also forestalls the grind in tackling the boss fights that are otherwise the highlight of the game. It's not uncommon to be hacking at the shins of some vast behemoth for over twenty minutes on your lonesome. Time then to invest in some friendly comrades-in-arms; the game supports online and local multiplayer for both the Wii U and 3DS versions (though you'll obviously need a few 3DS units to get a local party going)."

Is this the same one that was on the Wii except in HD?

admiralvic4046d ago

It also got improvements, DLC, etc, but to a degree.. yes.

Old McGroin4046d ago

Yup but with extra monsters (think I read somewhere that 28 monsters have been drafted in from previous games), 1 extra area and a load of new quests on top of all the content from the the Wii original. And there's going to be DLC too so all in all a person could lose themselves in this game for hundreds of hours which is exactly what I'm planning on doing!

thaimasker4046d ago (Edited 4046d ago )

It has 33 bosses that weren't in the wii version and alot more.

Old McGroin4046d ago

Here's more info from Wii U Daily:

"There are 339 new quests not counting free DLC quests and 2042 pieces of new equipment in the game, with each category of weapon having over 50+ new incarnations. That brings the total number of weapons in the game up to 1398. There are also 1028 new armor pieces, bringing the grand total up to 1663.
There are also three new areas for monster hunters to explore, including The Tower, Misty Peaks and the Tainted Sea."

Put on PS3 and Vita and I'm in!

MNGamer-N4046d ago (Edited 4046d ago )

Buy a WiiU or 3ds and you're in!

RTheRebel4046d ago

looks like the drones disagree with you
lol

sdozzo4044d ago

I have one of them on Vita, but it looks a little dated. I was hoping for updated graphics, etc.

Blacktric4046d ago (Edited 4046d ago )

PSP and PS3 already has Portable 3rd (and you have the option to play the fan translated version on PSP if you don't know Japanese). You really don't need a different iteration of the same game. If you really want a Monster Hunter game on Vita, then go for MH 4.

On topic; I'm currently playing Monster Hunter Tri on Dolphin emulator and having a blast. It looks like I'll finally be getting a 3DS just to be able to play Ultimate.

Morpheuzpr4046d ago

I bought a Wii just for MH Tri and I have to say it was a disappointment. MHFU was the best MH IMO.

blastermaster774046d ago

That is stupid, only thinking on a brand, just plain stupid

MNGamer-N4046d ago

I preordered this one, It'll be nice to give it a whirl.

BLKxSEPTEMBER4046d ago (Edited 4046d ago )

cant wait til tonite! umm i think my wii u tag is dee, lol im not sure. add me if anyone wants to hunt!!!

Siren304046d ago

Been playing the demo on the 3ds and enjoying it. I just wish they would add true online co op for it since I don't own a wii u and don't know anyone else with a 3ds to play with

If they're not important enough to be held on their own official storefront then they're not important enough to give your money to Nintendo.

Buy these, physically, used or simply emulate them.

This article comes off as nothing more than advertising games that Nintendo, themselves, don't care to offer you... buy now!

ocelot07781d ago

Wait hang on where all the outrage? I swear when Sony tried to do this with PS3 last year. There was outrage from all corners of the gaming universe.

Why does no one care Nintendo is doing it?

MadLad781d ago (Edited 781d ago )

There has been.
A lot of it.

Simply type in "3DS" in Google and tell me what you see.

ocelot07781d ago

Oh I have a fair few websites reporting on it. But where is the outcry on here? I remember their was 2-3 approved top voted articles when Sony announced they where closing the PS3 store. All slating them and not caring about customers.

I should of worded it better. Where is all the outrage on n4g?

MadLad781d ago (Edited 781d ago )

N4G is a fanboy site, mainly frequented by only Sony.
Microsoft is their direct competition, so you'll typically only see articles that are made to rile up those fanbases.

Nintendo does it's own thing, so they're rarely brought up, aside from their fans. The most you get is the same typical two or three posters claiming Nintendo is only for infants.

If you come to N4G for educated discourse and reasonable discussion, this isn't the place. Sad as it is.

pietro1212781d ago

It's lame that it is shutting down. Now I feel rushed buying all the rpgs I missed out on the system.

XxINFERNUSxX780d ago

You guys know that even archive.org has 3DS roms, and all other console roms. I'm downloading 846GB of 3DS roms and will add the best games to my soon to be soft modded New 3DS 😁. Might as well throw in DS and other emulators in there to. Guys this would be the best way to play and enjoy the 3DS. Just need to buy a bigger micro SD card and format it to FAT32, which you can if it's even 256GB or larger there are ways.

XxINFERNUSxX780d ago

This should help if you want to soft mod it excellent guide and up to the latest and probably last 3DS firmware update: https://www.youtube.com/wat...

The Best Monster Hunter Games - Every Western Monster Hunter Game Ranked

What's the best Monster Hunter of all time? In a series where half of the titles have the word 'Ultimate' fixed on the end, it can be a difficult decision to make. NL are not averse to difficult decisions though, so have taken it upon theirselves to rank every single Monster Hunter game (yes, even the non-Nintendo ones) to determine which is the very best.
