10 more days...10...more...days...

I have been playing this game since my brother got it for me for Christmas. Ahhhh its good to be in the UK.

Its very good, even if the accents the voice actors put on are a bit dodgy.

At first I had a very "What the hell is this?" response.

However, now I know what you're talking about. So when do we get more Monster Hunter?

The game is very mediocre the characters are all stereotypes i.e Angsty main character, main characters bulky mate, standard anime love interest, old veteran etc. Also the jumping is over hyped because when you do jump the wii chugs like a hippo doing sit ups. And there are hardly any places where you can jump back up too only down, so it is a bit pointless. I suppose the combat system is good if u like trying to memorize strategies, and having to go through whole mini menu's to bring up one sodding attack. Also some enemies can only be seriously damaged by the Monado (red sword thing), and when these enemies are very frequent and only one character has the sword. This makes for an awkward combat system (in my opinion).
The story is long and has it's moments but in my opinion too long, it also became to boring to complete. but THE SETTING IS AMAZING two giant robots in the sea, I mean wow.
So yeah don't get too excited because you will end up disappointing yourselves. Sorry if you feel I was harsh I just thought you ought to know

I've looked into the game due to the hype surrounding it and there really isn't anything about the game that has me excited. From my point of view, it comes across as a lackluster Final Fantasy game.

The reviews along with the critical response a month after release could sway my decision, but as is I'm almost certainly going to pass on this one.

I from the Uk so I already got it. All I can say is that you won't be dissapointed as it is one of my favourite RPG games ever. (It's huge, got a innovation combat system, excellent soundtrack and for once it does things right that other RPG should of done before.)

I admit I wanted to make a user review alongside with The Last Story but sadly it's too late now since it will be out for you lots (had a hard time thinking of the review layout and what to say about it).

I preordered it but I was wondering, in the dub do all the characters sound British? That would be hilariously awesome.

So you mean it's like a JRPG? Isn't that why people like it?

Well yeah but there are better Jrpg's out there if you look hard enough

I'm super excited! I've had this game preordered for months!

I can't wait to get this! It looks like it's going to be so awesome!

Ahhh, it sucks though, since I'm at college right now I have the game preordered in a different town. I had to get someone to bring it to me so I have to wait until the 8th before I can play it. T-T

Still excited though!

 

[New Frontiersman]

I already have it imported.

Hands down the best game on the Wii.

How can you say that? Even if you do import it, the Wii is region locked, so there's no way you could have.

He probably hacked his Wii so it can play games from different regions. Either that or he has a foreign Wii of the same region as the region he imported the game from.

 

[New Frontiersman]

I HOPE he didn't tamper with his Wii. That's an unforgivable betrayal to gaming.

I didn't mod it so I could pirate, I just needed a way to back up my games.

I don't care! You tampered with your system! You betrayed Nintendo's trust! If you need to back up memory, buy an SD card!

I think you might be overreacting a little bit here... I don't think it's really that big a deal. There's no reason to blow it out of proportion.

Being from the UK I've had it for a while. I will say this though: GET HYPED! If you've got any doubts, cast them aside. Americans, believe me when I say that it's the greatest game to ever grace the Wii. Of course that's just this one man's humble opinion, but there you have it.
