Class game with some caveats

However one has his fighter / hunter and sets out to slay dangerous monsters and build the connection from the remains of armor and weapons.
I try a little bit with Ultimate Freedom Unite (PSP titles) to compare:

The areas where you can hunt are quite vielfälltig in Ultimate with 11 different areas such as the volcanic, desert and tundra. Freedom Unite, however, could come up with twice as many areas (ie 22). Although it has the example of two deserts or two jungle areas, but these differ in their style of play already enormously from each other.

Absolute plus point is that it had taken in the Ultimate weapons of Monster Hunter 3rd for Ultimate. That is both all previously published for the Westlchen market weapons (12 in number) and their new attacks.

A significant disadvantage is the monster number that can be hunted. In Unite had a total of 81 monsters that could hunt and in Ultimate, there are only 73. Eight Monster sound certainly first not so bad, especially as many monsters eh occur multiple times with different color and additional attacks / behaviors. But what bothered me just a little bit is that in much less Ultimate Dragon elders can be found than in Unite (Unite: 14 Ultimate: 6). Although happen a lot variants of the same monster with Unite, this is also the case with Ultimate and I thought that was a bit of a shame, because the dragon elders were a class apart from the behaviors and attacks her.

Negative should also be noted that there is no online mode (what I would find not bad, because one rarely finds the time to invite three friends to play). But good for an online mode Monster Hunter was previously not better known in the western world, it would be nice sometimes to get a fully online-capable title.

All in all, another great title with several hundred hours of gameplay, so 4 out of 5 stars.
