Even if Monster Hunter Tri is a good game, you still may not like it. Games like Metroid and Zelda are very popular, but theres still a fair amount of people who don't like those types of games.
It's a game where you rely on your skills to level up, not your character. You have to learn how to fight monsters, learn how to learn fighting monsters you know jack about, learn how to just about everything. It's a game of survival where, if you like those types of games, getting your rear handed to you only makes you try harder, and it kind of excites you as you realize how much better you're getting, wanting to take on stronger and stronger foes. Now add all of this with co-op online, and you should be able to understand why it appeals to alot of gamers. The question is if it appeals to you.
