A Must Have Game for the Wii.
2 of 2 found this helpful Monster Hunter Tri has exceeded my expectations the moment I began playing. Even from the moment I watched the opening scene when I put the game in I was impressed. New and old hunters alike will definitely enjoy the giant monsters you have to battle in this new installment of the Monster Hunter franchise.
Graphics: I was a Monster Hunter fan from the first one on the PS2. They didn't have the most impressive graphics with other games that greatly surpassed those, but the definitely did it right for the Wii. This game rivals the graphics of Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess among other titles. Breathtaking scenery, well detailed areas, monsters and characters, and lastly the underwater features. You really have to give credit to this game for pushing the Wii's graphics capabilities to it's limits. Although if you decide to play this on a large television, you might see some choppiness on the screen, although that happens with most Wii games.
Graphics: 5/5
Music/Sound: The music score in Monster Hunter Tri fits right in with it's style. While you're in the village it plays cheery tribal like music and when in battle it has it's epic fighting score. As I played I was glad to find out that they kept the original BBQ music score when you're cooking, it was catchy and fun to listen to. They don't have many voice overs for the game other than the occasional "Hey!" or "Hello!" when talking to shop owners. Usually they just have different voice sounds as I like to call it, something similar to Okami, so I'll assume that some Japanese games are like this most of the time. Nonetheless, it's fine with me, most people just skip the chat dialog anyways. Music/Sound: 5/5
Controls: Alright, I can't lie, using the Wiimote and Nunchuck for this game is abysmal. Sure it's a little more interactive, but trying to get the right move at the right time is difficult, especially when you have to twist or flick the Wiimote in a specific way. Get a Classic Controller Pro, end of story. The controls are much simpler, you have two different configurations for it (New style where you attack using the buttons or classic style where you attack using the right joystick). I use the classic style because that's the way it was played in the first. Sure changing camera angles is a pain with the D-Pad, but I've been used to it for the whole year I played the first Monster Hunter. If you're a new hunter I suggest using the new style controls, my friend enjoys it that way. Although if you're an old hunter, you'll want to use the classic controls. It just feels right.
Miimote score: 2/5 Classic score: 5/5
Gameplay: Here is the bread and butter of this franchise. Your objective; hunt down some of the biggest monsters you've ever seen, and trust me, they're huge. They're are almost all new large monster species in this game although they've kept the Rathalos, Rathian, and Diablos. The newest one (on the front case) is the Lagiacrus (La-gi-a-cris). An electrical underwater leviathan. Among hunting monsters you have to collect items and monster parts to create and make armor and weapons. They've fixed the hitboxes (areas where monsters can hit you) which is really, really nice. There are specific online and offline monsters so you really should play both modes. I have to make this short, I'm running out of space.
Gameplay: 5/5
Replay Value: Endless. I recently got this game and I have 50+ hours logged in this already and I'm still on my first character.
Replay value:5/5

Powerful Processor
2 of 2 found this helpful I got this processor specifically because I already had an AMD system and this processor performs extremely well for running PC games. The 3D cache AMD introduced really increases gaming performance. I would recommend running water cooling for it as it does get hot. It also has good overclocking capabilities.

Must Have In Any Game Collection
I've had this game before and I'm very sorry I had to sell it. Setting aside my fanboyness of Metal Gear, Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence (MGS3:S) was and still is my favorite MGS game. It's new and refreshing every time you play. Aside from the bonuses that it comes with, it also fixes most flaws the first version had. It's completely worth getting even if you had the original MGS3.
The bonuses even include online multiplayer where you can battle it out with friends and enemies. It also includes the original Metal Gear and Metal Gear 2 as well as some Snake vs. Monkey missions.
I'd also like to mention the music score, the music in this game is tremendously amazing, it's got some beautiful songs. If you like stealth-action games you should really look into this and if you like this game you should really look into the other Metal Gear Solids.
