Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Update: Worth the Wait | GoozerNation

Ryan Johnson | GoozerNation

Ryan Johnson at GoozerNation really wanted to do an early review of this game, due to his love of the genre, but a glaring "improvement" made it impossible to play. The new update provides a bit of respite, but is it enough to allow a devout follower to enjoy the game?

Going by your 360 avatar, I can't imagine why.

I will definitely get it though.

I tried to play it. I have heard so many great things about monster hunter and I was really disappointed. The camera controls were horrible and all over the place and the rest of the controls seemed really sloppy and slow. Sucks I could not play it because the idea of killing monsters,making weapons out of there bones and such and killing more monsters sounded really cool.

You have to give it a chance. It takes a while to get used to. I played the demo and hated the game solely because of the camera. It sucked. But, a friend finally convinced me to buy it so that we could play online together. I bought it and after about five hours, it didn't bother me at all anymore. It works perfectly now in my opinion. As for the slow controls, the dual blades and the sword and shield are fast at attacking, but do less damage because they are smaller weapons. But, when you are swinging a huge lance, it shouldn’t be fast to recover. That’s a part of the game. You have to decide whether you should attack or not. Is the risk worth the reward.

My main complaint with the game is that it has next to no storyline. A monster is attacking the village and causing earthquakes. Kill him. I understand that the game is about killing monsters, but I just wish there were a back story as to why I am actually doing all this, or at least a stronger story for it.

The gear, man, your doing it for the gear! ;)

NegativeCreepWA4023d ago

Same here, picked up the game because of all the people that talked about how great it was, just find out the controls are horrible!

KrisButtar4023d ago

I remember this person, they are the others who bought a Wii U and then used their Wii cable(and not the HDMI that came with the Wii U) to hook up the Wii U to a SDTV. Then complained that the game didnt work, well I am happy they got everything in working order now and they enojoy this game.

cheers

I agree I wish I could do HDMI but the budget allowed a Wii U and not a TV yet. I do see that a HDTV may need to be bought before next gen's Sony or MS consoles. Thank goodness prices are dropping! A good TV can be bought for $400 or so.

"I can barely see on the Wii U GamePad in HD two feet from my face"

Umm, you sir should not be writing anything about the Wii U if you don't even know the controller screen is not HD.

RyanDJ4023d ago

Technicalities aside, it is at least of a higher resolution than your average SDTV. I am finally able to read the text. What does the resolution qualify as? It appears better than SD.

The game is amazing! That is all gooday!

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!

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?

MadLad790d ago (Edited 790d ago )

There has been.
A lot of it.

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

ocelot07789d 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?

MadLad789d ago (Edited 789d 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.

pietro1212790d ago

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

XxINFERNUSxX789d 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.

XxINFERNUSxX789d 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...
