FanBolt writes: "If video games have taught me anything, the concept of big game hunting is subjective. Some games give you the promise of deer and bears, but Monster Hunter raises the stakes with scaly large lizards, giant spiders, huge beasts, and even wyverns and dragons. Teaming up with fellow hunters to take down these large-scale monsters is what makes the Monster Hunter series famous, and the newest in the series finally makes its way out of Japan. While we never got the base version of this game, Capcom brought out the upgraded Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate for the international release. Was Ultimate worth the wait for aspiring hunters?"

Sean Smith: "Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is a superb entry in the often impenetrable series, which makes great use of its hardware, delivering enough new bells and whistles to appeal to old-timers, and a cracking sense of momentum and intrigue to draw newcomers in nicely. Bordering on home console in terms of pure grunt, it is a seriously impressive bit of work, a daring, winning combination of amusing plotlines and excellently methodical battle scenes. Highly recommended."

GT: Few games capture the thrill of the hunt like Monster Hunter. Hours of work, preparation and practicing on lesser mobs, culminating in a final standoff. A creature looming just ahead, multiple times your size, who eats hunters for three meals a day, waiting for you to take the first swing. A long dance, trading blows, both parties trying to keep their cool while their swings become more desperate, health both rapidly approaching a deadline. And when you return triumphant, with pelts, claws and other trophies in tow, you have the true pride of a hunter.

GB: The opportunity to slay enormous monsters alongside your friends in stunning 3D isnt a hard sell, especially when it comes with a multitude of customizable weapons supporting a variety of playstyles and strategies. And if it comes with a giant world to explore and get to know and characters who have a metric crap-ton of quests for you, its hard not to ask where to sign up. Monster Hunter 4: Ultimate, which is out Friday for the Nintendo 3DS, is that game. But its also one that will fight you harder than any beast and go out of its way to make everything as difficult as possible. And not in that Dark Souls way thats usually pretty satisfying because youve overcome a challenge. No, this is often more like an annoying kid who runs up while youre playing and starts pressing buttons at random and then laughs when you die.

EGM: For years and years, Ive been searching for a replacement for Phantasy Star Online. Back before I really knew what MMORPGs were, back before every console had scads of virtual worlds with interconnected online communities, Segas offshoot of their beloved role-playing franchise sucked me into hundreds and hundreds of hours of advancing my personal avatar, teaming up with a bunch of strangers, and venturing off into missions and areas wed already conquered countless times before. There was just something remarkable about how everything came together in PSO, and those ideas would go on to become big business for a wide variety of companies in Japan. At the top of the list of that new generation of upstarts sat Capcoms Monster Hunter, a fantasy RPG where players met up online to try and conquer a host of hulking beasts. In its home country, Monster Hunter has become nothing less than a cultural phenomenon, growing into a juggernaut of a series equal in size and scope to the...

GN: Monster Hunter is a series I have been interested in for quite a long time, but have never played, other than just a few minutes of Monster Hunter 3. It's a game that sounds nothing less than epic. Centered around hunting large, intimidating monsters, Monster Hunter 4 takes you through many vastly different areas to fight many vastly different monsters, so that you can gather their bones, hide, teeth, and the like, and use them to make new weapons and armor. It's a fairly basic premise, but a good platform for lots of intense fights with assorted behemoths and leviathans. A lot of the game is great and works well, but unfortunately it is massively hindered by the fact that it's damn near unplayable on the 3DS.

Director writes: Hey everyone, Andrew Alfonso, Localization Director on Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, here again. Were only three days away from the release of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, so make sure your Nintendo 3DS systems are charged and ready to go! Lets talk about even more changes made to the Western version of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate that we hope will make the playing experience better for everyone, especially for new players. The first issue we dealt with was finding a new font to use for the game. Based on feedback from the Monster Hunter community, we made finding a new font a top priority. It took about a month to get everything finalized; the entire process involved not only myself, but the rest of the localization team (including the European translators), and our contacts at Capcom USA and Capcom Europe.
