Anyone else having problems getting the video to play? That EQ2 add is more annoying than a jehova's witness.
Funny, but it seems like he never made it to any of the end bit content. In that respect it is a lot like MMORPGs, except the endgame content is actually totally awesome.
The Wii shotgun image is priceless. Hahah.
Didn't tri hard enough, haha. A joke so terrible it's almost good again.

I bought a Monster Hunter game once and I can relate to a lot of what you say, particularly the later part of the review. And why the hell would anyone think it was a good idea on the Wii? Surely a game involving enormous monsters and cinematic fights should be nowhere near a processor that minute...
Excellent review of a game that sounds impossibly bad. I might be returning to World of Warcraft, but I'm not doing it for the fetch quests, the resource gathering, the assignments to kill X amount of monster Y for local idiotic & stationary potentate Z or the arbitrary and keyboard-snapping-in-frustration drop rates. And Monster Hunter Tri sounds like a big pile of that held together with shit.
Oh man, I was so excited when I saw that Yahtzee reviewed this game. I saw it a few months before it came out, had mixed feelings about it for a while, and then just realized that this could be one of the worse games ever for the wii. (Given that it competes w/ the conduit for the title)
It's funny watching Yahtzee review Wii games. The last few that he did was surprisingly optimistic, and then he finds a game that can make a gorilla stick his head up his butt just to escape the putridity. I'm still enjoying the good games that came out for the Wii, such as Okami, House of the Dead: Overkill, Twilight Princess and others. The Wii needs to go back to it's quality stamp that it was doing for the 64 so that a lot of these games can just be ignored.

Okay then... well I don't know if I can agree with you or not given that I haven't played the game yet. I've been thinking of getting it but I'd rather wait while it comes down in price before paying for it. I'd give it a rent but this looks like the type of game you can't just rent. Ho well, I laughed at the review and I was amused by it but I think I'll reserve my thoughts on the game until I've played it.
wtf...I thought he was gonna do Red Dead Redemption..I wanted to see yahtzee's opinon...ffs That game is ideal
I completely agree. And now that he has said he doesn't like it most of the escapist now hates it... *sigh*Daystar Clarion said:
not sure if they have expanded the fetch quest ones but those fetch quests he was talking about just sound like 1 star quests from the first one, but he is right as it souldnt be on the wii put it on a real current gen consol so we can get out of the need for loading screens
I don't know, but I think I might finally be in the mood for a grinder. I keep collecting those herbs in Red Dead Redemption, knowing full well they don't do anything. Then again, the idea of frequent load times is off-putting.
