Abriael3995d ago

Lol. In before console war flame ensues.

Blacktric3995d ago (Edited 3995d ago )

You do need to know how to read/speak mandarin though.

PygmelionHunter3995d ago

This looks incredible! Is there any chance this will come to consoles too?

C-Thunder3995d ago

I hope so. There's certainly no technical reason why it couldn't.

PurpHerbison3995d ago

But at the end of the day it is still Capcom and they make odd decisions.

Abriael3995d ago

Considering the fact that it's developed and published by a Chinese company, and in China the console market is basically a zero factor, it's unlikely.

FamilyGuy3994d ago (Edited 3994d ago )

Think they signed some deal to only make Monster Hunter available on Nintendos console for the next couple years so it would only happen on Wii-U, console-wise. A PC Monster Hunter released in other areas of the world is possible though, maybe handhelds too.

Blastoise3995d ago

Man those graphics are nice, shame it's not on PS4, Wii U or Vita or something

Orpheo3995d ago

I would try to buy a PS4 day 1 just to play this game.

::sigh:: Capcom, I love your Monster Hunter series, almost 800 hours into "Freedom Unite (PSP)" and still playing, but when will your western PlayStation fans see some more support? Please throw us a bone... a Big Elder Dragon Bone. ;)

It will probably take 10 days to download and just as long to learn to navigate the character creation screen but hell, I can't wait :D

derkasan3056d ago

Wonder if it'll develop a following in the states? I know there are some PSO2 fans stateside.

dead_pixels3056d ago

Yeah, I think I'll be jumping on this one. Thanks for the heads up, Cap'n!

RealTrueGamer3056d ago

Very cool. Thank you. Going to be giving this a try. Love MH, hopefully they didn't dumb down or ease what were used to for broader appeal.

CaptainCamper3056d ago

My internet is pretty decent and I'm currently at 3% after 4 hours. If you're looking to jump in on launch day, get that download going :D

Vasto3056d ago

Gonna download it when I get home. Been wanting to try this game.
