You walk through the brush and into a clearing. Armed with your wits and a powerful weapon that collects the energy from attacks, you feel confident that you're prepared for anything. Out here in the vast wilderness between towns and villages is where the most danger lies. Just as you begin to investigate the massive footprint on the ground, the trees begin to rustle, scaring the birds away. You feel the ground tremble and shake, and then the trees part and a beast of unbelievable proportions emerges. You take a deep breath, charge your weapon and prepare for battle ~ this is why you are a Monster Hunter.Become part of a traveling caravan that explores new lands and villages as a hunter in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, the latest installment in the popular Monster Hunter franchise. Craft and acquire hundreds of new items and equipment, including all-new rare and powerful G-rank weapons and armor. Take advantage of more fluid climbing motions and the inclusion of jump attacks from walls or ledges to surprise your enemies. Pay attention to the changing terrain that can be altered in battle. Some monsters can cause even ground to slant into a steep slope that could cause you to slide right out of the zone. Jump on top of monsters to deliver a furious burst of attacks with the new gameplay mechanic. Equip yourself with two new weapon classes ~ the Insect Glaive and the Charge Blade ~ in addition to the 12 previous weapon types that have been updated and enhanced. Connect with up to three other players over local wireless or via the Nintendo Network to join forces and take down larger-than-life beasts. Do you have what it takes to become the ultimate Monster Hunter?

Addicting and great for New 3DS XL
on February 28, 2015
Posted by: maestrogamer
from KS
I played MH3 on Wii U so this is the next one but on 3DS only. With the New 3DS it's really wonderful to have the C stick. The game itself is the best in the series in my opinion.

Founded and led by Jonathan Irons, perhaps the most powerful man in the world, Atlas Corporation represents the evolution of modern combat. Under the oversight of Irons and men like him, the rules of warfare have been completely rewritten, and national borders change with the demands of the highest bidders. Do you have what it takes to navigate this ever-changing military landscape and answer the Call of Duty?The latest installment in the popular combat series, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare plunges you into the combat of the future, orchestrated and fought by PMCs with the latest technology in armor, weaponry and tactics. Enter the world of Jonathan Irons ~ the founder and president of the world's most dominant PMC, Atlas Corporation ~ in a powerful performance by Academy Award-winning actor Kevin Spacey. Step onto the battlefield in a powerful exoskeleton that provides a massive force multiplier, delivers strategic freedom and enhances even the most adept soldier's abilities with optimized movement, jumping and grappling, covert cloaking abilities and biomechanics that take your strength, awareness, endurance and speed to the next level. Destroy opposing forces with an advanced arsenal that allows you to dominate the battlefield and all-new equipment, abilities and perks that put you at the forefront of combat technology. Conduct missions with hoverbikes, highly specialized drones and other new vehicles that enhance your mobility. Attack enemy forces with tried-and-true standard ammunition or step up your assault with new directed-energy weapons. The future of war is upon you ~ are you ready to play your part?

Maybe I'm burned out by now but it is good if you like the series, it's the same cinematic shooter as previous games in the series.

My wife and I love watching these shows. We don't watch any other tv shows, expecially the new ones as they are mostly horrible and have no morals.
Downton Abbey is a breath of fresh air and stays consistent, except a few scenes, but I won't spoil it.

I bought this to replace the one that came with the macbook which only lasted one year. The end that plugs into the port is fragile and wears out easily.

Great product since it can be hard to find pieces like this. The problem is that when an input is switched, sometimes you have to unplug and replug it in to stop the buzzing noise.

I'm late to this game but after playing the first Portal on the mac I decided to get this for the 360. I'm so glad I did and all the hype was justified even though it's an older game. The puzzles are fun and interesting, forcing you to think ahead.
If you haven't played this you need to even if you haven't played the first game. Hopefull, we'll get a Portal 3!

This new model is better better but less portable and feels heavy, for the quality it is.
