I played this same game on the 360, it was sub par then and not better now. I thought "surely this will be much better" but it's just terrible. How this got the scores it did is beyond me, maybe allot of nostalgia points from a writer who's also a fan. BE WARNED, POOR GRAPHICS, POOR CONTROLS, POOR STORYLINE, POOR EVERYTHING! This game should cost $5.00 at most. I've played better games on my phone. DON'T BUY!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's a HUGE improvement from the 3DS version but may not appeal to those who are already in the PS4 Era. It's a great game nonetheless and I am really enjoying the Nintendo Switch. It's a great console to me due to being able to play it as both in Docked and Undocked Mode. Anyway, the controls are much better on the Nintendo Switch compared to playing on the 3DS and as a result I'm not only enjoying Monster Hunter Generations with only enhanced graphics, but also 'Ultimate' added content and controls.
For me this is a 10/10 and the amount of positive reviews and Youtube videos on it proves that.
The-Hunt-is-ON!
Much better than MHW. Waaay better.
@michellelynn0976 I like the hunter arts
@MistaGuido me to.
@michellelynn0976 you planning on getting god eater 3?
@MistaGuido Yes. It looks good.
@michellelynn0976 it’s not as good as mhgu but it’s a lot more fun and you can actually jump and do combos. The moon blade (I think that’s what it’s called) is a lot of fun. I still goatta hit G rank in GU but my team totally disbanded and I need a new team -_-
Add me if you get god eater 3 tho there’s like 8 player raids and what not.
@MistaGuido Absolutely I'll add you. I mean, MHW has some neat features, I don't know. It felt like an incomplete game to me.
@michellelynn0976 add me on discord @ Mista-San12356#2097
@MistaGuido Gotcha. I'll also add you on my switch friend list.
@michellelynn0976 okay help me hit G rank let’s continue this conversation on discord I feel bad for taking over the comments section hahaha
@MistaGuido You got it.
@michellelynn0976 my friend code is on my profile I feel dumb for not
Mentioning that.
@MistaGuido Ah OK. I will get that.
Monster has the all hunter generations that was going to be ultimate it was among the all fields that was on it. I need to have the all details that was on paper writing service review it has the all formation on it that was able to read or have the all aspect on this.

I thought IGN claims they don’t compare against previous titles in series(ex:cod) yet I feel like this review was tainted from the beginning with a bias opinion due to MHW. Come on IGN stick with what you preach.
By the way, i saw a lot of times essays about this game. Best essay writing service usually publish essays samples at their web sites. Here you can find https://writing-services-review.com/review/bestwritingservice-com-review.html best essay writing services reviews.
@ADUB Sounds like you were expecting an action-adventure game and not a Monster Hunter game.
