One more thing, playing MonHan "correctly" (IE, putting your thumb on the analog stick, and your index finger on the D-pad) causes intense pain...and while I haven't poured that much time into MonHan yet, my Japanese friends who do often complain of "MonHand."

Honestly I would much prefer medieval fantasy over "modern japanese" fantasy. High school kinds running around with giant swords never did it for me.

But so did Phantasy Star Portable, and that sucked worse than shooting myself in the crotch...
...I'll stick to my Monster Hunter until I see footage, read articles, and check out reviews.
Now to go back to my White Monoblos farming...want to get my KKK-like Monodevil Armor... :D

Monster Hunter is on of my favorite games, period. The people who don't like it or dismiss it are the people who find it too hard to not have a lock on, too hard to not have levels to grind to beat something, too hard to micromanage different elements of your characters while in battle with a wyvern.
How many people beat Belmont-Style Castlevania games? How many people beat Metroid-Style Castlevania games? Metroidvania games have been beaten by just about anyone because if you have trouble with an area, you just backtrack and grind. Severe drop in actual player skill.
I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this way.

I'm a HR 1, fresh off a transfer from MHF2 to Unite. Been stuck on the level 3 urgent Quest (1st run in with Khezu) for AGES. Been doing quest, buffing my armor, etc., and no dice.
I had been using either the Long Sword or Great Sword. I finally attempted Khezu training and tried the short sword (which I had never tried yet). WOW. The stick and move tactics were night and day. So I checked out the base model fire sword (Red Steel or something?).
Luckily, the cat in the boat that I send out religiously after every quest had cobbled together (over time) the 4 Wyvern Firefliud I needed, and the lady at the gathering hall entrance was selling Wyvern fangs, which I hadn't even seen yet. So I got my sword, stocked up on Mega potions, Hot meat and whatnots, and finally GOT THAT BASTARD!
He KO'd me twice, but when that "Quest complete" came on the screen as he fell, there was no feeling like it. Bad part was I did this at WORK....fist pumping and all. I SO wanted to yell out my guttural victory call, but I did manage to restrain myself.
This is probably the 1st portable game I've played that truly feels like a console game. Incredible game.

MH3 on 360/PS3/PC would make me a very super happy camper...

@ph15h: *evil laugh*: I agree that the camera is a turn down for many and really wish there was any other way to handle it. But using this system i'm able to: move around (sprint while i'm doing so), attack (also use an item or dodge) AND move the camera at the same time, so i guess its pretty functional (on a side note: it will not be so with the GO)
@haruna: You obviously have not played MH on ps2

You know what's pimp though? Creating a JPN account, setting up the Ad-Hoc Party app, learning your way around that, getting into a game, THEN switching your TV's input to the PSP's signal.
Pure awesome, you gotta believe me. ^_^

Just bought it, havent really had a chance to play it... and wouldn't the resolution from blowing up your PSP to your TV's size be terrible? lol

the camera isn't the problem. If anything MH does have a steep learning curve but lack of skill or understanding is usually the reason for MH hate.

Who cares if its roughly the same idea if its fun?

Being able to cancel out of any combo would make the game too easy and too safe. Being able to put your weapon back quickly mid-fight and having potions work instantly would erase all consequences of making a mistake. As much as those things "suck", they're there for a reason.
