Classic Game Room HD - MONSTER HUNTER TRI for Nintendo Wii review

[wondorfamily]

Yes, Everything But Monsters... Never Heard of That Game

But So Good, Taste Like Chicken!

[rimidalvetarak]

I have played MHFU. the one b4 this, for about 3 years now. Truly the best game I have ever (and still) played.

[supporteedcoffee]

I'm getting this or xenoblade chronicles, witch one is better?

[rimidalvetarak]

@supporteedcoffee This.

[ExecuteRobot]

@supporteedcoffee Xenoblade for sure.

[TheCleardeath]

[patyos2]

Skyrim is for noobs compared to this game >.> why did I even bother playing Skyrim ..................... I am going back to play MONSTER HUNTER TRII !!!!

[carinoavatar]

Can you review any monster hunter portable for psp??

[rimidalvetarak]

@carinoavatar Just buy one m8. I have played it, I can testify it is the best game I have ever played in my life.

[mrbreezyboy7]

lol, I just flat out love this review, accurate, funny, and so many one-liners. Keep it up :D

[LogiaSogeking]

name is sanji (ingame) finished da offline nd have to say its not even half of the game if u play online consider dat 1/3 done at most this games better dan oblivion nd skyrim

[johnandrewthomas1981]

This is probably an RPG. This is just like pokemon, except instead of befriending the animals you eat them.

[Bub820]

Is this sort of the Wii version of Skyrim? If it is...i'll start playing it now.

[lol999999ful]

@Bub820 monster hunter is different from skyrim but its very addicting in its own way and it is just as awsome as skyrim in its own way to.

[dan182rocks]

@Bub820 this is way better than skyrim dude speccially the dificullty of the monsters, this game is awesome man you have to buy it.

[gmxgamer]

lololol wii ps3 and xbox 360 sucx balls

pc WINS

[MrGameguy001]

@gmxgamer wrong answer

[gmxgamer]

@MrGameguy001 consoules suckx as my spelin'

[BurninBandit]

I'm so excited to play Monster Hunter again! *Stares at MH box as I type* Can't play til I buy a Wii tomorrow (damn holiday!) I played the original on the PS2 from the month it came out til they shut the servers down and I can't wait to dive back in and experience the online sensation that provided so many awesome memories back in the day!

[mybigwang1]

@BurninBandit if you are serious about getting it i play it regularly

[BurninBandit]

@mybigwang1 I'm currently getting used to the Wii version ( controller mainly) I'm on the 3* offline quests. I'm going to finish them up then head to the online world. My ID is JGCCGG I think. Character name: Redwrath, Add me if you or anyone wants to play.

[herochrisx]

I've spent 470 hours on this game and have yet to eat an agressive monster. This guy makes it sound like eating is the main point of the game. I don't even you Steaks anymore... Energy Drinks recover stamina the same and underwater too. Geez.

[lordrath2000]

@herochrisx

Well, sometimes you'll be eating dragon heads and tails before hunts.

[Toosimoo]

Enough with the Vectrex jokes!

[SolBuster]

@Toosimoo Why would you want the Vectrex jokes to end?

They are genius.

[whothq18]

this is in usa???

[RAGwiththeVIDS]

@whothq18 Yes- it's been out worldwide since last march

[RAGwiththeVIDS]

@RAGwiththeVIDS *April

[TheWiiJunkie196]

@whothq18 hell yeah it is!

[hyperkiller3]

Question, where can I catch gold fish or legendery gold fish? im stuck at this mission..

[ChienguRuu]

I spend over 200 hours on this game. Damn. :D

[rimidalvetarak]

@ChienguRuu Good on you. keep going. I have spent 3 years playing the MHFU.

[dragon10452]

i bought my wii just to play this

[spideynick1996]

this game looks alot like skyrim

[AA1613]

@spideynick1996 your right it dose and i may br wanting to get this

[Anakinnightwalker]

@spideynick1996 Really? Because to me, everything about it is different. Gameplay, concept, quest, visuals... Please elighten me as to how does this game look like skyrim?

[lordrath2000]

@spideynick1996

I have no idea why you think it's anything like Skyrim. Everything about it is different. Heck, this game knows what's a wyvern and what's a dragon. Skyrim gives you wyverns, calls them simply as dragons, and hopes you can't tell the difference.

[TheMissMaemi]

There's just something about Wii games that turns me off. Eh.

[zero757575]

Better getting them on pc eating them on pc killing them on pc

[spunkflunk]

i hope it isnt like the ones on psp. on the psp there is like no free roam, cant swim, repetitive gameplay, and u start off with gear that looks like it should be for the max level

[Sub2Xemnort]

do people still play online?

[lugiasoulsilver1]

i have played over 400 hours on this game it is so addicting i remember going online at 9:00pm and not stoping till 5:00am when i had to go to work. also this game has the best online for the wii (in my opinion) and is the only online game i play

[Phenderz]

I don't understand the hate for the IGN review. They were fair on this game.

[TheBiAtheist]

@Phenderz It's cool to hate on the biggest and most popular.

[Jermz1997]

I skipped first period for this game.

[blacksushi150]

lol the dragon age origins reference XD

[KyotifulJet12]

Ligiacrus FTW! X3

[moppenboek]

i hated ign for teire review, thanks CGR!

[ronvnkl232]

great review but look like a ps2 game? more like a ps3 game the graphics are amazing almost as good as 360 and ps3 games

[PerfectBlade20]

@ronvnkl232 no, that's a huuuuge stretch saying THIS game is like xbox 360, monster hunter tri g for 3ds, now THAT has xbox 360 graphics(because the 3ds has a way better gpu than wii)

[ronvnkl232]

@PerfectBlade20 i said almost as good and yes i know the gpu of the wii could have been better but its not bad by any mean but monster hunter tri is a great looking game

[PerfectBlade20]

@ronvnkl232 I would not say almost either it is good looking though, If you have seen monster hunter tri g for 3ds you would understand what I am saying

[ronvnkl232]

@PerfectBlade20 yeah i know it looks better but i just said monster hunter tri look much more like an hd game than ps2 game dont you agree on that?

[PerfectBlade20]

@ronvnkl232 Yes, it looks better than monster hunter on ps2, because the wii is more powerful than the ps2

[ronvnkl232]

@PerfectBlade20 i know but monster hunter tri comes close to a 360 or a ps3 game in terms of graphics

[pyrobezita4ever]

im playing this on my psp

[DrProfessorMasterK]

@pyrobezita4ever How? Are you talking about the freedom series? Did you buy monster hunter freedom 3 of ebay or are you talking about freedom 1,2, or unite?

[pyrobezita4ever]

@DrProfessorMasterK im playing the unite

[DrProfessorMasterK]

@pyrobezita4ever Ah ok. That one's my favorite out of the freedom series since freedom 3 never came to america.

[GotenRocks05]

does this game have multiplayer on one wii or do you have to go online? can two people play it together offline on the same wii? 

[maniacchris]

@GotenRocks05 there is split screen co op.

[TyraelArkangel]

what armor are you using at the end when you are fighting qurupeco?

[TyraelArkangel]

what armor are u using when you are fighting the qurupeco at the end?

[02uno]

can you use a game cube controller for this game?

[baragokuotome]

I'm so glad that CGR could appreciate Monster Hunter for what it is instead of going "ahhh! story!" or "lock-on: where is it???" I knew I could count on him.

[z3Carlos]

Since you're a bowgun user as well would you mind doing a guide to one of the missions? I could really use the help.

[MrRockion]

does it have a story to play.?

[BenjaminKuruga]

@MrRockion story? what? just online and offline play.

[MrRockion]

@BenjaminKuruga i mean does it have an option to play the story of the game or it's just like the other online games that you

are only be able to do quests.

[BenjaminKuruga]

@MrRockion There is no story, The offline quests have Clients... Example uuuh,

The Ever-present Shadow

($)13200z - 6100z Contract fee

Client : Soldier

Background about the soldiers failed attempt at killing the Nargacuga and how he wants you to kill it in secrecy but give him the credit. ...like that

[KoolKempster]

I AM DYING TO PLAY THIS GAME!

[TheMudkipArmy]

the only problem with this game is the fact that it doesn't have a "Z" targeting system, which would have improved swordplay.

[TyraelArkangel]

@TheMudkipArmy most monster hunter fans would tell you that they prefer it when there is no targeting because its more challenging or for various other reasons.

[TyraelArkangel]

@TheMudkipArmy most monster hunter fans would tell you that they prefer it when there is no targeting because its more challenging or for various other reasons.

[jazzkomp]

i hate this game(not really).............. because i miss lunch and dinner playing this game

[TheDarkKnightAssasin]

this game is $20 at gamestop

[BraxtonDarkhold]

I fucking hate the fade.

[Ju5tD13]

im getting this game soon and i just bought a classic controller i cant wait!@#!@#!@#!@#

[WanaPlayDrums98]

@Ju5tD13 I just bought one 2 weeks ago and "I Apporve :D"

[OrdoMallius]

@iAQW

everything is better than IGN review

[Danielfranchi1234]

@iAQW Yeah because they don't get paid...lol

[sysLink15]

im lost in the online mode cause i just started this game about 2 hours ago 

[SuperHamsterKing]

you sound like duke nukem

[wrathlos]

omg back when monster hunter was online on the ps2 i strived to reach hunter rank 17 and fight the legendary black dragon fatalis (the max use to be hr20). What sucks is the day i reached that rank my file got corrupted

[mkocja5a]

saying that a wii game looks like a ps2 game is an insult! this game doesn't look like a ps2 game, it looks like an xbox 360 game.

[crazyjak56]

@mkocja5a it looks like a ps2 game. period.

[mkocja5a]

@crazyjak56 no, it doesn't, the psp ones look like subaverage ps2 games, monster hunter tri looks like an xbox 360 game

[crazyjak56]

@mkocja5a if it were really low budget.

[EdwardsEclipse]

makes me want a wii :/

[Hitman38200]

this is the best game on the wii be a mile!!

[sysLink15]

@Hitman38200 +skyward sword and kirby wii and maybe grinder, metroid other m red steel 2 etf

[Hitman38200]

@sysLink15 I don't think zelda is as good as monster hunter, red steel 2 is an awesome game but is can be beat in 2 days. I think monster hunter is better but zelda,metroid & red steel are still great games. Is the grinder actually out yet?

[sysLink15]

@Hitman38200 the grinder is not out yet but i still kinda look forward to it o and the game that is maybe better than monster hunter in my opinion will definitely be dragon quest ix sentinels of the starry skies that game is hella long

[Hitman38200]

@sysLink15 well thats your opinion oh and I am really looking forward to the grinder

[Chaos6655]

is this seth rogan

[XHeavensEclipse]

Only bad thing about this game is the lack of monster. I kinda wish they brought back some of the elder dragons or added them as event quest. Other then that this is one of the best games on the Wii

[kR0B45]

"I'm stuck in the fade for 12 hours" lol i hear ya

[shadowhexogram]

Yathzee totally sucked at this game and it became a big scene. You go in and not only udnerstand this game but you make it badass as you run around carrying a giant gun.

[logichook]

Wii games look solid!

[Failedmylife]

Quest FAILED!

[ZeonGundam]

Lol I loved when he said "I'm stuck in the Fade for 12 Hours."

[runescapeaqown]

This, Demons souls, Elder scrolls, Kingdom hearts, And Pokemon are my all time favorite RPG's hell there just my favorite games. Dark souls FTW <3

[FlyingAce1016]

mark needs to do a let's play series of this

[ElongatedVowels]

Hmm...This makes me wonder exactly how many of the girls online are actually dudes...?

[ManicRaider]

@ElongatedVowels idiot.

[ElongatedVowels]

@ManicRaider Geez, problem much?

[robloxfan459]

cont) blade enter the original spot of the block, with the block then closing on the blade, like a matriosca doll folding on a smaller one. the switch back would be the reverse, it splits open and the blade sides come out and lock onto the sides instead of pop off. anyone have any thoughts on this?

[robloxfan459]

personally, the switchaxe gave me an idea for another weapon. a similar design, but with a blunt block as the alt instead of a sword. as apposed to doing high elemental damage, this block would do heavy blunt damage, sacrificing elemental diversity for physical power. its main would be the block in the center with blade attachments on the external areas, for cutting damage. the alt would have the blade sections pop off the sides, get to the top, have the block section split in half and the (cont

[FlyingAce1016]

should I buy a bow gun?

[robloxfan459]

@FlyingAce1016 depends. bowguns have the advantage of range and their versitility in a fight is great. but, the main problem is that they have some of the lowest dps and dph ever, making them less effective as damage dealers unless you specificly go after damage. they are best for support, like damaging enemies with elements or status, and boosting or healing partners.

[FlyingAce1016]

monster hunter tri is awesome

[autodetruvtive]

Freat review man I will come to you int he future for wii reviews ::samurai bow::

[Fishmonkey123]

I mainly like these reviews because im 32, i have respect for a seasoned gamer, my first console was a nes, i now own a 360, wii and sometime's play some wow, cool review.

[nabit333]

i love this game the one before it wasgood too but they definatly keep it interesting by adding items new weopens, armor, and monsters. When i first saw the open world of monster hunter 2 i was amased at how extensive it was. once you think you have completed it it throws the monster +'s at you plus some more bad ass monsters.

[321123gamer]

I love this gamei got it when i saw this review

[CRburt99]

Tihs game rocks!! I got it today

[Drizzle4Ever]

I'm thinking about getting this but I wont be able to play online alot so would it still be worth it?

[jaret2217]

@Drizzle4Ever Its a good game without it, but alot harder and lonelier. If your getting it make sure you try online, or get some friends to get it too, because its a blast with others.

[cocacolafan971]

this game was originally for the ps3

[robloxfan459]

@RaikenXion uh....you know there is one in japan called frontier?

[RaikenXion]

@robloxfan459 Yeh I recently heard, but its only in Japan :((

[BahumutRider]

One unfortunate thing about a lot of these reviewers when it comes to this game is that it looks like some never get past one star or HR1, and while this review was more thorough than some of those people, I'm really just wondering if the reviewer ever got to hunt the big game after this review was done on beasts like Lagiacrus or Rathalos.

[RaikenXion]

@BahumutRider I think this reviewer just sounds abit like hes actually taking the piss out of the game. He shud go to Japan and really see how big this game is over there. I bet he only plays FPS shitty CoD and all that

[DanceLikeANitwit]

@RaikenXion You must be new to Classic Game Room HD lol, he plays every game ever. Also you just claimed that a successful game must be good, before calling CoD shitty (the highest selling game franchise of all time). Sales =/= A sign of quality, necessarily.

[RaikenXion]

@DanceLikeANitwit He may play alot of games, and Id imagine he'll hav particular favorites too. And CoD mayb biggest selling game whatever, u think that makes it the greatest game ever?? U go 2 Japan and you'll find MH is one of the biggest games over there. CoD just simply appeals to the mainstream, and by that I guess I mean the majority in the west. Anyway In my eyes it'll never b as gud as far more superior FPS like Perfect Dark.

[RaikenXion]

@DanceLikeANitwit I dont h8 CoD, its just most people today big that game up way more than it deserves. Playing CoD feels like being on a adventure ride at Florida resort, ur maneuvered about unable to move freely and explore by ur own means, u get big action set pieces, explosions galore all happening as u move along, its one big rush of action that is all set to the path u move along. I think Crysis1 (PC version only) is a way more superior FPS thats actually very underrated.

[RaikenXion]

@DanceLikeANitwit CoD may b biggest selling game, but I still think original Perfect Dark is way better and its alright saying its old, but there way more stuff u cud do on that game. Every CoD game u play main story, then online for a few months and ur bored after more or less waiting for the next1. PD is a game that had so much to offer, the guns had secondary uses, Challenges, unlockables, even 2player co-op, and what hardly any FPS has ever done, 2p verses in the main game.

[Muckass06]

@RaikenXion hey, don't `diss Mark!

Watch some of his cod reviews, he says they're good, but not really his thing. He prefers old games like Genesis and Atari 2600 games.

[RaikenXion]

@Muckass06 Wow its like no-one can say anything just the slightest bit negative bout this guy! lol. I wudnt say I was dissing him at all, but its just his tone how he describes this game, maybe hes witty and gives quite a fair review of games overall, but its just his tone here, I mean listen to how he says Monster Hunter at the start, "This is Monster Hunter Tri for the Nintendo Wii from Capcom...." even that sounds like hes slightly mocking the game and not taking it serious.

[RaikenXion]

@Muckass06 I dont mean to argue but I will say, wen it comes to reviewing games, in-order give a fair review of a game, you do really need to play a fair bit of that game, not just the first one or two levels. And actually thats gud that hes not really in2 CoD lol.

[Muckass06]

@RaikenXion well yeah, I agree with you on that. But maybe it's because he wants it to have less spoilers? When a reviewer does what he does, it means one of 2 things.

1) He doesn't want to give away spoilers

2) He's a dumbass who's only doing it for the money and doesn't really care for the game he's playing

After seeing lots of his reviews, I'd like to believe it's the 1st reason he did this for. :P

And yeah, COD is overrated crap. ;)

[RaikenXion]

@Muckass06 Yes maybe I need to watch more of his reviews, like give him more of a chance, and nice 2 see sum1 thinks CoD is overrated you cud'nt hav put that better m8 :)

[Muckass06]

@RaikenXion yeah, I played cod all the time a while back, but it's just the same shit over and over and over... I felt like I was becoming a mindless zombie... D:

I'd recommend watching some of his atari 2600 or genesis reviews, although he is a bit biased when it comes to the genesis, though then again we are all biased for something :P

[RaikenXion]

@Muckass06 Yeh I'll check his reviews out, and thats rite wen it really comes dwn 2it we really all r biassed in one way or another. I do try not 2b tho lol, I like to check out the best of what each console has to offer, I got PS3, 360 and a Wii but Ive never really been able 2 get in2 the Wii's "Motion Gaming" thing lol.

[Juledass95]

is this game fun?

[hasegawamiki]

@Juledass95 über fun and over addicting Dx!!! (Specially online!)

[Lubeular]

MONSTER HUNTER FOR PS3

CHECK CHANNEL

[hermosapeach]

I've been saving some money to get a classic controller pro and a game I found out there are bundles for Goldeneye and Monster Hunter Tri which one should I get??? I've seen reviews for both games and both look good. Please give me some opinions thank you...

[gregolol777]

@hermosapeach MH tri bundle cuz this game pwns the wii version of goldeneye...the n64 version is better

[Halo4e32011XBOX720]

@iAQW wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy better!

[bellamy13088]

Just one question for playing this you need a wii-mote and a nunchuk? or just a classic controller?

[TheMaazster]

@bellamy13088 classic

[bellamy13088]

@TheMaazster Oh thank you so i think i´ll buy it! (:

[DONTFEEDTHEDINO]

@bellamy13088 its worth it! lol its an AMAZING game :DD and if you get online i can help you my name is DINOMOO lol i wanted to be random with it and it in all caps send me a friend request :DD

[hasegawamiki]

@bellamy13088 Can play it both ways, but classic controller is better (the game was made for that)

[JonnyALC]

i like the monster hunter series bcuz,...IT HAS ABSOLUTELY NO STORYLINE, i don't care for a story, if i want a stroy i read a book or watch a movie, when i play a game i wanne play it and not listen to a 3 hour story i don't give a crap about!

[SolidSulfur]

I got this game yesterday and its amazing!

[coneyislanddiscomark]

This game was fucking balls. The wii wasn't made for games like this. 

[DinoSquid]

@giangione82 Your one of the people that didn't even get past the tutorial. If you played at all you'd know almost every monster requires a different strategy.

[giangione82]

@DinoSquid yes..hit-and run & run-and -hit. 

[lalolo101]

D: i want to go hungting and eating those bitches online with mark

[giangione82]

this game is boring.

[uscdrew1]

@giangione82 Not to put down your opinion, but what makes you say this?

[giangione82]

@uscdrew1 dull animation, same action and same strategy for every monster.

[uscdrew1]

@giangione82 How far in the game did you get? Knowing this helps me decide whether to encourage you to keep playing to find out how fun it is, or to laugh for hours on end.

[giangione82]

@uscdrew1 thx for help, but i sell it. 

[uscdrew1]

@giangione82 'Tis a shame, then. I know certain games aren't for everyone, but MHT is just one of those gems that can become a very enjoyable experience.

[luishomeroremohsiul]

LOVE this game :) i like that you can plug a standard usb keyboard

[hyperkiller3]

will it work with a gamecube controller?

[VideoGamesReborn]

@hyperkiller3 It works with the GC Controller, also the Classic & Classic Pro Controller and the normal Wii Mote.

[miepsooo]

@hyperkiller3 No unfortunately not, but you can use a classic controller

[DoubleAIV]

@hyperkiller3 No, but it works best with the Classic controller Pro

[Trane209]

man fuck this game it doesnt have a flamethrower so i will not play it

[yvain85]

@Trane209 In fact you can fire some shells with the bowgun that act like a flamethrower.

[MsAnoPoYun]

DUDE YOU SHOULD GO ONLINE AND JOIN WITH US ITS FUN!!!

[Vrockstech]

way better than ign
