Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Review
Exclusive to Nintendo 3DS While there’s nothing obvious that’s revolutionary about Monster Hunter 4, there’s a lot going on beneath the surface. Rather than bolt a new setting and new features on the bones of Monster Hunter Tri, Capcom has quietly and cleverly disassembled the component parts of its game and reassembled them in a structure that’s both more welcoming to novices and a richer, deeper experience for fans. The result is easily the best game in the series, and one that easily circumvents the technical weaknesses of the 3DS.

Monster Hunter 4 has a lot of repetition and grinding, but succeeds at capturing the thrill of the big game hunt like no other game can. If you’re looking for a long-term game with plenty of loot to grind, quests to beat and bosses to kill, this is your game.

If you're a Monster Hunter fan the answer is simple, buy this game - it's a significant undertaking but utterly enthralling once you're drawn in. There's a greater sense of story to make the single-player exploits a little more interesting than is typical, and online is slick and performs well; lack of voice chat is a blow, nevertheless. New weapons, locations and monsters make this a treat for fans, if still intimidating to those considering a first dip; yet if you're up for the investment in time, this is another special experience from Capcom. A true portable blockbuster.
