I totally understand where you are comming from also, when I first picked up the game demo I was turned away by the camera controls, I found it really hard using the 3ds and having to use the D-pad on the touch screen was a bit of a stretch but once I had a longer try I got used to it and havnt looked back from buying the game. I would just say that if there is something that makes you think "this isn't for me" just persevere for a bit and once you get into it, I am more than certain that you will think of it as money well spent.I will let you know that I don't ever plan to put this game down

That's a good idea, just remember the data transfer you can do keep both versions of the game the same. Sounds like you will be farming mostly online, and then destroying the village quests one by one offline XDI have always wanted to play online in a group of 4, but the 3ds limits that and I am unable to this is why I am waiting for mh4 because it's a 3ds exclusive with online play making me super super super excited You planning on getting it soon? Or is it going to be a birthday/Christmas kind of thing?

I would totally recommend it, it's defiantly something that you won't regret :)As for my self I can only speak about Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate but while playing it I found that I could easily put 100+ hours with almost no thought, and while keeping my full attention and making me want to keep going for a long time. The only thing I will say is that if you are thinking of getting it, your first thought should be if you want to play online via the Internet with people all over the world through the Wii U, or over local networking using the 3DS ( take this into consideration due to only being able to enjoy online with people in the same room could be a bit limiting if you don't have friends with a copy of the game )Even though my younger brother has the game on his 3ds like me, meaning that local play is feasible, I never find time because of work and him still being at school.Planning to keep this topic going so will be checking a few times a day, those of you who want to chat don't feel that your post will get ignored, as I will be making regular visits.

Hello, I would like to say that I am very excited about Mh4, as I am a 3ds player the online features to the game almost become non existent in MH3U due to it being local only. This was really a shame when I started playing because it practically made the port useless to me, apart from the event quests for the special items ( you can download these from the DLC section on the home screen for those that didn't know. You get some awesome weapons such as the tenebra). With the online features that are going to be part of Monster Hunter 4, I really look forward to getting to try the online features, making new friends and all together fighting monsters not alone but as a team of friends. During my experience for MH3U ( the only monster hunter game I have played ) it is safe to say that I have had my share of enjoyable and tiresome fights. The fight I have enjoyed the most would be the high rank Zinogre fight. The music that plays when fighting it is just great. I also really enjoy the mechanics of this fight. The homing balls of electricity that he fires at you are just one of the coolest things, along with his super charged mode, just makes him one of the coolest monsters ever. My least favourite fight so far has been either the rathalos, duramboros or the diablos all of which are neither exciting or short fights. The rathalos has to be one of the worst only due to the fact that all it seems to do when I fight it is fly around, land to shoot me with a fireball and the fly away again. When trying to fight the azure rathalos for its armour I got extremely lucky farming it's parts and got the whole armour set in just 4 fight ( 3 of which were part of different quests). The duramboros is simply just a pain due to the length of the fights, I never get him to die in under 15 mins, even when use a weapon to match his weakness. The diablos on the other hand is simply just the most boring and annoying fight of them all, he always manages to hit me with his charge out of the ground, no matter how much I zig zag around, and when enraged its near impossible for me to dodge. I don't know what armour sets people have made just for the looks, but the zinogre set is just something out of this world, the colours are just magnificent, along with the skills make it a really good set in my opinion, and one that I don't really see when watching YouTube videos. My favourite weapon type is the Dual Swords plainly for the speed and the ability to move around fast and dart back in to continue dealing damage ( go dios slicers!! ) My questions to everyone else is: 1. What's your favourite weapon/ armour sets and why? 2. Best and worst fight? 3. Any thing about the game that just made you think "WOW"? Look forward to reading further posts.
