Nobody can be excited for a game even though they haven't played the series yet? WTF? That's the most retarded thing I've ever heard. |
No, the problem is people are excited for the game just because it's on the Wii. If people wanted to get into the series, they could play the last six games in the series.
I'm not saying "don't be excited", I'm saying "Don't hop on the game's jock since it's on Wii now".

What if people don't want the other games? Or they don't own a PS2 or PSP? What if they just want to start with MH3? The same goes for every other series.
|
If they don't want the other games, then they certainly will not want MH3. On any console.
And I don't see why or how anyone would not have a PS2.
|
Well that's just not true. There are plenty of people who refuse to buy old games when a newer version/sequel is coming out that's going to be better.
Also... I mean... have you ever SEEN a copy of a PS2 monster hunter game?
Ever?
I haven't... and i go to used gamestores... a lot.
Why would someone want the PS2 version when online is a decent part of it.. where it's like impossible to beat some monsters with out it? Why pay for a game where nobody is going to be online... when you need online to complete everything.
Heck it's not even like niche games where you could find someone on this site to play with you as almost nobody even on this site owns the PS2 games.
There are tons of reasons to not want to go with the PS2 version.
Which... if anything you'd think DJmeister would know... (and likely does, but is letting bitterness get in the way.)
He's just making a bitter fanboy argument. Don't encourage him.

I see a few copies of the original MH (not 2 or G) frequently, but it's not too hard to find.
Although, if someone is interested in the series, then why wouldn't want to see where the series came from?
|
I guess people need to play Phantasia before playing any other Tales. And I guess people should play FF1 before playing any other FF.
Seriously...it's not necessary. It's nice to, but not necessary. And Kasz already listed reasons why some people may not want to play the older ones.
|
No, not at all. It's like playing going back to play Symphonia and Abyss after playing Vesperia.
Phantasia doesn't play at all like the new Tales whereas the MH franchise isn't going (very likely) to make any major changes in gameplay. I would want to play Persona 3 to see if I'd like to try Persona 4 before P4 came out. That's all. Which is a good reason that they are porting this to Wii.
