Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for WiiU&3DS! EU/US

[Raynar]

Sweet! Looking forward to some MH =D

 

[Deleted_171835]

Really really excited for this. It was the most unexpected announcement at the conference aside from maybe Bayonetta 2.

Removed a bit of stuff around the thread.

Yet again, if you guys don't like a game, you can feel free to not post in the thread on that game.

It's not like you have to force your righteous liking of games on the others.

Thanks

10 Monster Hunter games and they're up to "3".

Am I the only one wondering why more people aren't complaining about the fact that the same game is ported over and over and over?

Kirby Super Star Ultra: "It's the SNES game with some extras", Bitch whine moan.
Super Mario All-Stars Wii: "It's the SNES game which is some NES games", whine complain.
New Monster Hunter: GOTY I AM GETTING THE SYSTEM BECAUSE OF THIS

This is hardly a straight port. With 50+ new monsters, new weapon types, new areas, visual improvements and more, it's quite different and worthy of a release.

In other places if you keep taking base games and re-releasing them with added levels you get called out for milking the series and things of that nature.

Again, 10 releases for 3 numbers in the series? That's a bit much. I can definitely understand rereleases with extras, but when the series is more re-releases than new entries something doesn't sound right.

• Monster Hunter
• Monster Hunter 2
• Monster Hunter Freedom 2
• Monster Hunter Tri
• Monster Hunter Portable 3rd

And soon, Monster Hunter 4.

Those are all the games that are largely original.

And with Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, I would argue that there is more than enough improvements and additions to merit it being its own game.

So there's four games in the series of 10, 4/10, which are "largely" original? As in not even wholly separate?

Nobody has to argue about whether Kingdom Hearts 2 is a new game compared to the first, for example.

*5 games. Even so, Monster Hunter games generally have enough differences to merit its existence even if it is based off an earlier game.

Anyways, I'm mostly arguing that Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate has enough new stuff to deserve a release. Not all MH games (as I haven't played them all...).

Wait a minute isn't MH3 for Wii U and 3DS essentially enhanced ports of the MH Tri?

If so, I've got to love Capcom's milking.

BUT NO NEW MEGAMAN HUH.

But it is quite funny that people will cry profusely over every Street Fighter re-release or every HD port they make but are absolutely giddy for Monster Hunter re-releases.

Nah, 50+ new monsters, new weapon types, new areas, visual improvements, control improvements. Honestly, I would say it's closer to being a new game than it is a port.

So an enhanced port?

No. Not at all.

Game+new content=enhanced port.

Great logic, Bro.

 

[Deleted_171835]

Game+new content=enhanced port.

Great logic, Bro.

Game+little new content=enhanced port

Game+lots of new content = not so new game?

This is like getting a healthcare bill from a Republican.

Doesn't matter... it's the same game, isn't it?

 

[Deleted_171835]

Doesn't matter... it's the same game, isn't it?

With so many additions that it's almost an entirely new game.
