Abstract: Monster Hunter may be a hit in Japan, but it seems US reactions to the series have been a little slow to warm up. Although Monster Hunter on the PSP and PS2 did have technical issues, the series was still praised by critics for its old-school approach to...
Combat is a blast whether alone or online with others; the online itself is the best experience on the Wii; monster and character animations are excellent; visuals and sound are admirable; encourages players to adapt to the difficulty,
Grinding for materials and items, and equipment creation becomes a bit of a chore; best experience is had with the classic controller pro, as motion controls can prove frustrating; very steep learning curve for new players.
Monster Hunter Tri is an achievement not just as a testament to what can be done on the Wii by third-party developers, but as an evolution in the franchise. This is the most accessible version of Monster Hunter’s storied history, but also retains the ...

Abstract: Did you play the Monster Hunter Tri demo? If not, don't bother. It sucked.Okay, that's subjective, but it's definitely fair to say that the Monster Hunter Tri demo did not accurately represent the full game. Imagine if Rockstar put out a demo for the...
While Monster Hunter Tri isn’t as impressive as its PSP predecessors, it’s pretty much the best console release of a Monster Hunter game to date and is well worth picking up if you’re a fan or have been interested for a while. The concept is as solid ...
Fantastic art design, epic fights against awesome creatures, charming setting, unique sense of humor, addicting "collection" gameplay
Controls take some getting used to, online is still a bit of a hassle, Wii Speak chat quality isn't the best, requires large time investment for maximum returns, movie cutscenes are unskippable on first viewing
