| Conegamer said: Monster Hunter tends to end up around 80, I expect this to end up around 70-75. So not as highly reviewed, but still good. Anyway, it's my type of game and I'm sure I'll enjoy it thoroughly. That's what counts after all. |
To be fair, MonHun only started ending up in that region after the Freedom Unite/Tri period started.
Thing I don't understand is, both of the MonHun clones we've had on Vita have been reviewed by Colin Mortiarty. Comparatively, Kezza did the most recent review for MonHun on Wii-U and it's like night and day difference between the two.
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Colin's review. For the most part, I liked it, and I haven't played the game so I can't judge him on it. But Kezza mentioned that she played at least 50 hours in MonHun; Colin played 20 for his review. Kezza said that multi-player was "crucial" to the experience in MonHun; Colin made passing mention towards the end of his review that the game could be played co-operatively. I'd hazard a guess that he didn't spend more than an hour trying the multi-player.
It's little things like that which niggle me about the review. Like I said, I don't have an overbearing hatred for it; but why not get Kezza or someone different to write the review who has a better understanding of the genre? Just seems odd.
