E10phoenix Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 monster hunter is a great game, but like so many others it hasn't got a release date other here in Europe or America. is there a slight chance, if any, that the game may one day find its way over to our consoles?

killer7 Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I think it's possible, but I believe that it is not going to happen. Just picked up the game today and is my second Monster Hunter game I have played, the first was on the phone. It's not bad. I figure if Capcom sold enough in Japan on the Xbox then they might release it outside the country. Cross your fingers, but don't hold your breath.

Dude I got questions, I hoe you could help me answer em, Can you pay the monthly fee with Japanese Microsoft Points? or you MUST have a Japanese Creditcard? also were you able to get onlive with the game, with a non japanese connection?

metallicorphan Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 i remember when they first announced it awhile ago,they said it would be Japan only....but they do say that for a lot of games(Capcom said the same for Resident Evil Zero(wii) if i remember rightly) so hopefully the game will hit our shores i have a friend who is currently playing Monster Hunter Tri(or whatever its called) and she said she wished it was on XBL...maybe this could be as good as Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akatsuki Sw1tch Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 I am praying to the heavens this game gets a western release especially when capcom keep making sequels to games i couldn't care less about. The MHF2/MHFU games are by far the GREATEST games on the PSP & i thought all my christmas's had come at once when i originally heard frontier was 360 bound! Sure there are a whole bunch of great games heading our way but this is the one i truly care about & i would gladly pay £200+ for an english language version i could play online So c'mon Capcom do me a favour and give this AWESOME game the western release it deserves or i'll be tempted to visit your offices and unleash the vespoid hordes!

Sorry should of said I am in Japan, so I cannot tell if it works anywhere else in the world. It comes with about a weeks worth of open beta, but I'm also getting achievements for it. Pay doesn't start until next week sometime. But there is a code for 30 days of Hunters Life, which I assume is the full on game. Other than that ya can check out the page http://xbox360-members.mh-frontier.jp/sp/payment/ it has info on how to pay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azurayl Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Thanks Killer7! It apeares that I could pay with Microsoft points, but There are dates on the left of "Saabisu (Service)" I wonder what is that... But yea, now I need to confirm if it works with a non-japanese IP (It IS region locked for a NTSC-J console, but not sure about the internet connection) And I do hope it comes out in the US, although it seems like a very long shot, since most likely Japan chose to release the game on the Xbox360 coz it has a regionlock system, unlike the PS3.

R4wD0g496 Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 Really hoping this comes to Canada. The only monster hunter I played was on the PSP and it was terrible cause I had to play by myself. I wanted to love it and I can see myself loving it playing it on my 360 with real people. Creating my own gear and stuff seems super addicting. Monster Hunter games ALWAYS sell like hotcakes in Japan so I don't know why they haven't brought over any for the 360. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUZZARDIO 1080 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 i dont get it, surley the game would sell enough copies to cover the cost of translating it. seems to me that it would have been a perfect xbox live game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilronnie42 Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 seriously capcom needs a kick up up from behind if they don't release it in europe since theres alot of fans that want to play it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Montymort Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 I would love this to come out over here, but if it does I hope it'll be free to play, all Monster Hunter games on console have been Pay to Play online in Japan, but have been free online over here, if it comes I hope it follows this pattern.

KFZ Scrubs Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 This game looks amazing, i'm playing MH2 on the psp again in hopes that it'll come here in the states. THe achievements look hard, HR 100?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilronnie42 Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 yep i originally got interested too via the monster hunter psp games and was excited to see it was coming to xbox but to be slapped in the face by capcom also its somewhat disrepectable to announce a game, then make it region only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcnichoj Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 I would love this to come out over here, but if it does I hope it'll be free to play, all Monster Hunter games on console have been Pay to Play online in Japan, but have been free online over here, if it comes I hope it follows this pattern.Although this is an MMO and as you know not a single MMO on the 360 is free, examples being (the only two I even know of) FF11 and Phantasy Star Universe. I wouldn't mind paying though as this one bolsters more content then any of the past games. Did anyone ever confrim the IP lock? Because that's pretty easy to get around anyway.

BlackRob182 Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Yea it's confirmed to be region locked but how's that easy to get around without paying or getting it to run smoothly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seraphim Lloyd Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I really hate when Japan gets an awesome game that will never be released anywhere else. I do hope that Capcom will see the success of previous Monster Hunter games in Europe and America and release this gem so everyone can enjoy.

XTheSceneQueenX Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 I went to my freinds house today and watched him play Monster Hunter 3 for the wii and was just awed by how cool it is so i got on here and was trying to figure out if I could buy it for Xbox 360...
