The other topic was dead, so I made a new one.
"quoting from the un-official MH wikia"
Monster Hunter 3 is the third installment in the
Monster Hunter series and is the direct sequel to

Monster Hunter 3 will be a Wii-exclusive title.

Why moved from the HD consoles to the Wii?1.Many People were asking why Capcom went for the Wii, this is what Capcom had to say:
"It was a strategic decision set by the team and our Japanese management to address an emerging market on the Wii. At the time the decision was made, it was in reference to the Wii market in general, no particular sub-segement thereof." — Christian Svensson, Capcom’s Sr.Director of Strategic Planning and Research
On August 23rd, 2008 Capcom had to explain a bit more about why they went Wii:
"I can’t discuss the localization issues at this time. As for the decision to bring it to the Wii, I think there were many. I think it’s fair to say that CJ wanted to bring one of its premier franchises (possibly THE premier franchise when you look at the Japanese market) to the broader audience that the Wii represents. At least, that’s one of many variables that pushed it in that direction." "end of quote."
The online gameplay is very enjoyable, lagfree, and USB keyboard friendly. I really love the ways you can upgrade your weapons and armor with things you find.
New to the series is the Bowgun weapon. This is the only weapon you can use from a distance. They are a little bit weaker, but they are very easy to use and you get hit much less. You can upgrade the different parts at will and you have all kinds of different ammo kinds.
All weapons are a lot different of the rest, and need proper skill to use effectively.
