Only 33% This a late 09 early 2010 title.

thekitchensink said: I've never been (too) interested in this series, but my interest piqued when they started describing how monsters interact with each other and the player. I hope they decide to keep the idea of the monster being able to chase you from area to area--it would really add a big sense of urgency and make you think about whether it's wise to attack or not. In such an online-oriented game that asks you to work together like this, I only worry about 2 things: -No friend codes -WiiSpeak support Give me those, and you may have yourself a sale

I am sure they will be added plus one more thing I want to add to that list is WM+ 

It would be fun using it against the monsters as a sword or other things like that. And with the voice chat (if they implement it) I want it too be like the splinter cell game. Like you need to whisper so the monsters won’t hear you wile you plan your attack. Man that would be awesome.   

They could use this to counteract XIII in Japan.

At the very least it would give Wii owners their own big game to play instead of having them pondering a PS3 purchase, in Japan at least.

i knew it this game will be a big thing

As the resident MH fan, I'm not feeling the underwater thing.

I don't think it's going to work well.

Everything else seems standard with a new game in the series. New armor, weapons, locations, and monsters. Same as always.

I'm just hoping the new control scheme and underwater fighting doesn't suck too much.

To my knowledge Squares been at 30% with FFXIII for almost 2 years now.(exaggeration is mine) Also the under water thing seems awesome. But what I would like to know is if Ballista and other Gun type weapons have changed, like does it use the IR to aim.

Wow, that was a long interview, but I got through it in the end. Glad I did cos it's sounding fantastic. 33% isn't very far into developement, so it's probably going to be a late 2009 title. But it's sounding great already, and give it enough developement time and this should turn out as a great title for the Wii.

Woah. I think thats pushing it. I dont like FF but...well its FF. SE has everyone by the balls when it comes to that series.

Anyways I agree with youre 2nd statement. Id much rather play MH3 over XIII

looking good

You'd be suprised how many people have dropped off the FF band-wagon.. for at least the numerical series. Their formula hasn't really changed over the years, and the FF's aren't usually cliche...

It's actually probably because they are focusing more on character development over the world that character is in, a key selling point for FF7 was that the world was riddled with other people, at least that 's how it was marketed... that appeals to kids, the thought of a fantasy world.

Outside of that I'd pick up MH3 over FFXIII any day of the week.
