The camera is completely broken in this game, at least in the demo.

It's amazing how much can be effected just by the hype of Monster Hunter 3 and the massive sales of Monster Hunter 2nd G..

So what is the difference in comparison with MHF2?

It's MHF2+extra content. It's the original game with an expansion pack.

I find interesting that MHF2 is at 72 in metacritic and MHFU is at 90.

Which is why I've been asking why people suddenly love it.

glad to see it's well received in the west (so far)

i guess i will have to pass.....
i don't have extra hundreds of hours to burn atm
and most importantly, i don't like the control scheme
using left hand to control both movement and view angle just doesn't feel right



It (PS3's market share) might hit 30%, but definently not more. ~ Neo

Maybe they saw the Japanese sales and thought "Shit. Look how popular this game is. We better give it a good review, otherwise we'll get flooded with hate mail and death threats."

Sony and Capcom is putting a ton of money campaign for this game.

They must have sent out a VERY SPECIAL EDITION review copy to the media :)

I see. Did it come free tickets to Japan for some hands on time with the game. (trips includes parlor treatment, sake, women, hotel for a week, more sake, and more women)

Reviewers are probably taking the time to review these games now, instead of plopping it in with the Japanese transition piles.

now the IGN US review is gonna drag it down since it's at 8.0



MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.
