Monster Hunter Portable 3

[Cantih]

* The game will have sound effects and voices from Metal Gear Solid. This includes Snake and The Boss saying the game's trademark "Jouzu ni Yakimashita!" when you cook meat.

David Hayter in my MH3?
It's more awesome than you think.

Are PSPs region free like the DS? I kinda really like this one.

Also looking into buying the bundle and read somewhere that you just have to set the system language to 'english' and you're good to go. Only thing you can't play would be movie UMD's since they're region-locked, but who cares about those lol

[Dmitry]

Yeah, exactly. So fkyeah. Only problem will be price and availability. Going to be hawking play asia for the next couple of months I guess.

In an odd twist, Capcom have announced that their upcoming
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd demo will, at least initially, only be
made available to members of its mobile phone Monster Hunter Club.

The trial will include two quests, the contents of which haven’t
been disclosed, and will give you the option to tackle them either in
singleplayer mode or with up to three other hunters in ad-hoc
multiplayer. If you feel lonely going at it solo, you can opt to take
two AI-controlled Felyne partners along with you instead.

You can even bring Felynes into the multiplayer game. For instance,
you could have two players, each with a Felyne partner, making for
a total of four hunters. Portable 3rd’s demo has significantly more
content than the one Capcom released for Monster Hunter Tri.

They aren’t being stingy with weapon choices either. The weapons
included in the trial are: One-handed sword, Great Sword, Hammer,
Lance, Slash Axe, Dual Swords, Long Sword, Light Bowgun, and
Heavy Bowgun. You can look at pictures and screenshots of these
(and the weapons not in the demo) on Capcom’s official site for the
game.

If you’re a member of the Monster Hunter Club, you’ll be able to
access the demo starting October 3rd. There’s a catch though:
even club members will only be given two access codes — one for
downloading and one if they wish to gift it to someone else
presumably.

And nothing of value was lost.

[Kiarax]

Correct, because every PSP owner has custom firmware and this shit will have a translation patch in no time at all.

[Insanecyclone]

nope

New analog stick apparently feels a hell of a lot better.

Capcom updated the Monster Hunter Portable 3rd site with profiles of four brand new monsters to hunt. Let’s take a look at them.



Herbivore type: Zuwaroposu

These territorial beasts have thick, heat resistant skin. You can often find them submerged in a forest or in a waterfront by a volcano.

Pelagus type: Rangurotora

Protected by a red carapace, these monsters can surprise hunters by rolling into a fight. To prevent prey from escaping, Rangurotoras have a paralytic toxin on their tongues. You’ll find these monsters around volcanoes and deserts.

Bird Wyvern type: Gagua

In Yukumo village Gagua are domesticated creatures. In the wild, Gagua tend to inhabit mountain streams.

Leviathan type: Hapurubokka

These dangerous monsters lurk in sand dunes and wait for prey to walk in their mouths. Known for their voracious appetites often ingest a mouthful of sand with their meal. Hapurubokka evolved an organ that lets them spit sand out at enemies, which is one of their attacks.

So~ just downloaded the demo, the graphical upgrade is pretty noticeable.
Although, unless I'm missing something, not every weapon is available (e.g I can't seem to find gunlances or bows).

The new roll for DS is pretty cool.

Yeah, going to have to look into this, PSP might be going on the Christmas list~

Though, to be honest I've had a blast playing MHtri on the Wii, and that one having been my first MH game got me hooked. I wonder if they'll ever release another title for the Wii.

PSP looks cool, and the analog stick looks nice. I wish they sent more of that cool stuff to America. Any idea how long til the game comes out outside Japan?

[Myrrh_Quetz]

The speakers are little paws. That's fucking awesome.

[Cantih]

Man I wish I could afford to import that. I could use a second PSP to have OFW on anyway.

[Jaybar]

Omg I want that redesign Either way I'll probably be waiting for this to come stateside. Thankfully we won't have to deal with AdHoc Party this time around (or will we?)
