Andy has already covered the fundamentals in our review of the 3DS version. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is Capcom’s attempt to challenge this perception in its most accessible Monster Hunter game yet. The game’s unforgiving nature and steep learning curve has led to Monster Hunter’s reputation as a game for elitists, impossible to penetrate. In this modern gaming sphere of regenerating health, prevalent checkpoints, and dynamically sliding difficulty, the Monster Hunter games are part of the old guard when every move counted and failure meant starting from the beginning of the mission.
The Monster Hunter series is not for the faint of heart.
