Also, I do find it quite hilarious the number of people that have hopped on this game's jock since it was announced for the Wii.

I distinctly remember the lack of interest in Monster Hunter Freedom, 2, and to a lesser extent 2G (this was released after the Wii announcement), even though the games sold well. There wasn't tons of info on new monsters and environments being posted, and when they were, not a lot of people cared, but as soon as it's on the Wii, huge threads are being made for the game, and everyone is excited.

So my question is:

Have people even played the game? Any of them? MH1, 2, g, MHF1, 2, or 2G?

Cause if not, I fail to see how you can be excited for a sequel in a game of a series you haven't played.

>_>

 

Well, the series sold millions of units in Japan, the Wii version looks superb (graphically) and in general the game seems to be really good. Why shouldn't we be excited?

I didn't play the previous games, by the way - but why should I? I don't even own a PSP

 

You know, if Nintendo announced Zelda for Xbox360 most 360 owners would be pretty hyped, even thoese who never played a Zelda game before.

I was also excited for Smash Bros. on N64 and Final Fantasy on SNES, even though I didn't play a Final Fantasy game before.

 

Well, MH is a series that is very unfriendly to Western design and is quite niche here in the US. It's a love/hate game.
