Coming from Capcom's Christian Svensson:
"I think it's fair to say that the strategic investments we've made in Freedom Unite and Tri means it's safe to say that Western audiences will see more MH in their futures at some point. Exactly how and when, I must remain coy and ask for your patience."
Monster Hunter World is close to releasing, which means it’s no better time to reminisce and look back at some of the best Monster Hunter games that came before it.
Goomba Stomp: "In Japan, the Monster Hunter series is something of a legend. Every gamer worth their salt in Japan knows about Monster Hunter, as each new iteration in the franchise, is met with high critique and commercial success. However, this is not the case over here in the States. The first time I had ever even heard of the franchise was a preview for the series’ third installment, Monster Hunter Tri, in Nintendo Power. The idea of hunting giant beasts with an online team seemed like a really cool concept to me, especially when I learned of how well the series was received overseas. Little did I know that Tri would go on to become the single greatest experience I have ever had with an online multiplayer game."
It's like drugs, people who haven't try it looks at it like it's some kind of outlandish, weird thing they'll never understand why people are addicted to it. But once you try it, preferably with friends... suddenly you have 200 hours logged in in just a short time you'll never guess it's a capcom game.
too bad they chose to release it on a niche platform in the west, if only capcom has the brain to upgrade the graphic and release it on PS4/XB1 I'm willing to bet it'll be as huge as overwatch, only you won't be bored as fast.
Its funny because even though i know Generations is exactly the same as Monster Hunter 4, just with even less story and the addition of Arts, its still addicting as hell. There's just something about it. The preparation before going out to fight a particular monster is probably my favorite aspect of the games.
Knowing your enemy and what weapons, tools, and items to bring is something missing from a lot of games that is done really well in this series. That strategic feeling before the actuall nonstop action begins once you find the monster is unlike any other game that I've played.
With recent release of Monster Hunter Generations, Bit Cultures lists out our Top 10 Monsters from the series. From the terrifying to the hilariously named.
yea, just bring MH3P.
Well I'm glad to hear it from Capcom. Would love for MH3P and the revised PSP to show up here at some point.
But also wouldn't mind if they held off for a PS3 or 3DS MH.
Hopefully something sooner than later.
i hope for MH3p to be ported over the 3DS, or a new one on it...
at least, in the 3ds we should be able to play online....
Don't know jack shit.
I hate there stupid cryptic answers to everything.
-Capcom is RE Portable still in development or has it been canceled?
"Durr, just keep waiting on it, LOL!
-Capcom what did you mean when you said you wanted to Westernize the MH series.
"Durr, just talking among yourselves about it, ROLF!
Plain and simple, they don't know anything but act as if they do.
3DS MONSTER HUNTER will be confirmed by Feb 2011
or I will eat my hat
