First monster hunter game and while i would love to beat it i honestly cant imagine myself coming back to this anytime soon
So here’s the deal, I’ve already completed the main story and did many of the high rank missions solo. The plan was to continue with the multiplayer missions and do as many as possible before the servers get closed in April. However I’ve noticed that a lot of the multiplayer missions are a repeat of solo ones. I already spent over 170 hours, I keep seeing the same monsters, areas and items. The game has been done for me a long time ago and it didn’t register until recently.
The game itself is very impressive and a big accomplishment especially at the time. The maps feel alive, the mechanics were introduced gradually and perfectly (unlike Rise), the graphics were great, there is a lot of content, it’s very polished and the controls can feel rewarding after getting used to them.
All that said, I don’t know how 3 Ultimate will stack up against the newer Monster Hunter games and whether it’s worth playing after playing the newer ones. This is my first MH and I didn’t spend enough time on Rise to answer this confidently. I can at least say it’s worth playing for MH fans and Capcom tried to make the best game possible at the time. It was clearly made with love and care.

Great game! It lacks a bit of the aesthetic Tri has but offers something amazing in return!
Not the best game ever, just know it's pure nostalgia that makes me give it this score, playing with my friend, the world itself, even the swimming, amazing memories of all this.
qurapeco is a BITCH
FUCK THIS PUSSY ASS BIRD
FIGHT ME MAN TO MAN

mucho skill issue veo yo por aquí eh??
The controls and character movement is obnoxious in this game, And the camera movement is somehow worse too. Another Monster Hunter game in the dustbin after playing for a few minutes.
Dans la continuité du 3 avec plus de monstres. Y'a toujours les combats dans l'eau par contre, heureusement qu'ils ont enlevé ça dans les jeux qui suivent.
Pls Capcom gib us Duramboros in the next Monster Hunter
cool
Janky. Could not get really into it. Long loading times with extremely grindy gearing made the game not the best when played on a console.
I do understand that it was probably built and designed to be played on a hand held but at that point, I had already secta'd my nulo.

Always have a great time with MH. They always go ham on their sequels.
Overall just a bigger and better Monster Hunter Tri from the Wii. Sadly the Online mode from the Wii original didn't make the transition yet again. Ignoring that fact, this is the only 3rd gen game worth playing nowadays due to the added content via the G-Rank.
- Did i enjoyed playing it? Yes
- Did i enjoyed the music? Yes
- Do i find it easy to recommend to a newcommer? Not really
- Where the controls/mechanics any problem to me? No - but underwater is weird.
- Do i find it replayable? Yes
- Did i streamed it? No
- Additional notes: My introduction to the series and holds a special place. Definitely not the best choice but somehow i managed and I'm glad i did.

It's what made me get a 3ds
This fuckin game man, oh my lord. So for some backstory I had been aware of MH for some time as I remember when Tri released and one of my best friends pestered me to come see what it all about, I got as far as the character creator and mashing voice grunts over and over and it was really funny. However once I stepped out into moga woods with the greatsword I was just lost. You know the meme, why's this big ass sword so slow blah blah.
Anyway, the Wii U had no games at launch really so I bought this just to say the Wii U had games at the time and slowly I played it and played it, until 700 hours later and neck deep in the endgame I achieved nirvana. This birthed an incredible love of the series for me, I love the worldbuilding, lore, monsters. All of it, it was incredible.

A sick voice in the back of my mind kinda misses the swimming.
my only monster hunting until rise, i could never go back to this.
I wasn't thrilled that the graphics were basically the same as my copy of Tri. I struggled to get into this as a kid. This one has a painfully slow start. I prefer the later entries.
Premier épisode auquel j'ai joué, directement happé par l'univers, les bestioles, la coop local/online...
Lagiacrus, un jour tu seras de retour !

Mi primera vez con Monster Hunter, dolió un poco pero después me gusto U//w//U
Underwater combat is something I loved idk what y'all are talking about
I actually like the underwater combat.
This is not a review of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate. This is, instead, a takedown of the worst thing that's ever been in a Monster Hunter 3. "Oh you mean the underwater parts?" No. I mean Quropeco. While I've only played four Monster Hunter games, so I'm sure there's some total bullshit encounter I've completely forgotten about, this hideous bastard with its armor throat and its explosion clapping and its Rathalos summoning song is the worst thing that's ever been in a Monster Hunter game and it is a blessing they're not in the other Monster Hunters. And surely you may think "now that you've said that, they'll put it in another game." At this point? Do it. Do it and make everyone else choke. You already killed my Hunting Horn. I don't care anymore.
THIS SHIT IS FIRE
REAL shit
The peak of old gen Monster Hunter in my eyes. Underwater combat complaints are a skill issue.
underwater almost unplayable on 3ds but other than that its peak
This is a game with some chest hair. It was the sole reason I used a 3ds for hundreds of hours, then to do the same on the Wii U. If you can get through most of G-rank in this game, you can probably handle most soulslikes using DK bongos.
Monster Hunter is great, and there hasn't been a single bad one. I will not debate this, this is an inarguable truth revealed to me in a dream.
MH3U is the quintessential Monster Hunter game to me. It has the old-school jank mixed with the early roots of the convenience that would fully envelop newer games. It has a great story told through dinky textboxes and fantastic boss monsters with intricate mating behavior. It even has the one-time gimmick that is pretty divisive on release but them grows on you as newer games drop it.
