Phantasy Star Online >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Monster Hunter > Ragnarok Odyssey.

*edit*

Another comparison to Monster Hunter would be Dragon's Dogma, since boss monsters are a huge focus in both games, yet they're better in Dragon's Dogma and there's far more to offer in the game than just amazing bosses.

Dragon's Dogma >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Monsters Hunter.

Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen comes out on April 23th.  Includes the original game, all DLC, new classes, new dungeon, new monsters and bosses, more equipment.  $40 MSRP.

 

The game is designed to be playable even by those who are not too skilled at action games. These types of players can recruit strong NPCs and let them do the fighting during combat as they watch over the battlefield.[12] Players have access to 40 to 50 hours of main quest play and up to an additional 70 hours or more of side quests.[10]

[edit]Multiplayer

Although Dragon's Dogma does not feature a direct multiplayer mode, the developers have revealed that players can compete online with asynchronous encounters called "Events" via Xbox Live or the PlayStation Network. One such event includes the 'Ur-Dragon' in which the effect of each party's attacks will be combined until the Ur-Dragon finally falls. Players that deal the fatal blow will receive the maximum reward, but regardless all players can still obtain both common and rare items dropped by the Ur-Dragon when they inflict damage.

 

In every way, Monster HUnter beat it. Main quests can take you more than 200 hours + another solid 200 hours online. Co-op miltiplayer was super on Wii, Wii U will be better with DLC quests for free. Monster Hunter is a challeging game, that you can't beat it by yourself if you don't learn from it. No hack and slash will help you at all without strategizing. Best Dragon's Dogma review average 78 on metacritic, Monster Hunter on Wii with standard definition graphics managed 84. 

In terms of sales:

I am not saying Dragon's Dogma is not a good game, but at least is not better than Monster Hunter Tri on the kiddy Wii. 

And I don't even want to mention Phantasy Star Online.
