This game has been amazing with the hours I have put into it. I love that there is now online multiplayer and you are able to join your friends who may live far away on a couple of missions together. Overall great game and worth a buy.

The ambitious portable Action-RPG returns with its excellent/ refined combat system, a great sense of wonder, and fantastic range of monsters. Monster Hunter has one very simple concept; kill big monsters, skin them, then fight bigger monsters with the spoils made from previous monstrosities. This being incredibly additive! All with multiplayer options both local and online. Not many games look this beautiful on the 3DS, let alone having the content to match even half Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. Over one hundred sets of armor and enemies to encounter is just fantastic. Notable mention. The 4-series has made some much needed changes inspired by Capcoms other franchise, Dragon's Dogma. Airborne launch attacks, climbing and hold on mini games give the hunter experience a more realistic sense of battle with these titanic beasts. Unlike previous entries Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate begins with an impressive array of sequences to dazzle newcomers that frequently continue after each mission list has been completed. With a more worthy story to follow and helpful tutorials throughout. Another fine mechanic in place thanks to the 3DS double screen is a user-friendly interface and lock-on features, making previous camera issues less a bother. So overall Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is a grind heavy game which feels less so being the enjoyable experience it is. Never a better time to hunt. See you in the lobby!

MH4U is the pinnacle of the monster hunter series and of game design. It takes the best of the MH3 and refines it to a tee. The story is fun and humorous, as well as challenging. The progression feels natural and the difficulty curve also new players to learn the controls without being thrown into the deepend. The monster designs are also excellent, from hilarious congas to the ominous gore magala there is a great amount of variety. Speaking of variety there are more weapons than ever. Each weapon type branches out into thousands of excellent designs. Each weapon fills a certain niche and playstyle, theres a weapon for everyone. The music in Mh4 is also top class. It both fits the tone and mood and is incredibly catchy. 10/10
