All Monster Hunter games are similar. However, MHTri and MH3U are special because they are the only ones that feature underwater combat. Unfortunately, neither of these games is available on current platforms, making it nearly impossible to play them legally and safely today. It would be really great if MH3U were available on modern devices. MHTri was my first Monster Hunter, and I truly want its legacy, as well as MH3U’s, to be preserved the right way.
"The first time I heard about Monster Hunter was in its third installment for the Wii console. The experience was quite simple because I didn’t want the game itself, but rather the controller. In America, they released a game set with a Super Nintendo-style controller, but in my mind, all I was thinking about was using the controller for other games But the moment I put the game in and the cinematic started with the game’s introduction, it hooked me. As I began playing, I got hooked on facing colossal monsters, essentially with what could be called a stick, improving through the falls and seeing the monster's characteristics. It was an incredible feeling, and I wish I could relive that first time I played this beautiful game."

Honestly, the only way modern players can try the underwater mechanic, one of the best mh games ever released and a true nostalgia piece. As a monster hunter fan myself, i would recomend to at least try this or mh4u if u want to try an "og" mh game.

The third generation of Monster Hunter was such an important time for the series, Capcom and the Monster Hunter team innovated so much in terms of map and monster design and the effects are still felt throughout the series to this day. I think that it would be incredible for players of the newer games to be able to experience the 3rd generation of Monster Hunter, especially since right now, there's no easy way to play these games, unlike MHGU and the two fifth generation games, there is no way to legally play them on modern hardware. Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate is such an important game for the series but also for me personally, such a beautiful experience with incredible musical compositions, map designs, art, monsters, weapons and an overall good time with that old sense of wonder that you'd feel when booting up a game for the first time.
My predilct game mh ,brachidos and abisal amazing, i can end all game ando engoy custom builds, hunt the plesiont un the water really my favorte mh portátil game ever
The game that means so much to my, the acuatic combat was really good (when you're not playing the 3DS version XD), the charismatic monsters like Dire Miralis, Abbysal Lagiacrus, Gobul, Nibelsnarf, Hollowed Jhen Mohran, Rust Duramboros and many others that are closed on this game and they didn't deserve that fate, they have their rights to shine once again and I'll fight to see this game on GOG and preserve the legacy of MH
The first monster hunter I played, so many hours, and the funny part is that I found it on a pawn shop, but was really a discovery, this game made my r1 button don't work on my old 3ds
Water combat was so fun and had such an amazing and special atmosphere to it wich would be way better with the right stick of modern controllers, I used to play it in a 3DS The Deserted Island map is so cool and beautiful in its underwater zones and the Flooded Forest had such a cozy beautiful nice aura with its rainforest vibes, loved this game, also amazing fights like Gobul, Royal Ludroth and Lagiacrus, sadly Gobul is one of the few monsters that never got to future games and stayed in 3 Ultimate like Qurupeco and Gigginox
This was the entry title for me to this magnificent world of monster hunter. I've played it so much on my WiiU and 3DS... I'd definitely buy a PC version of it, to relieve those days. Also, aquatic battles and Lagiacrus, baby!
The improved version of the base game which adds a few more monsters and subspecies. I already really liked MHtri which introduced me to the series but the Ultimate version is really a whole other level, during my I spent a lot of hours in co-op with my brother (I was on 3DS and he was on WiiU) it was really the good old days for me. It would be really great if this game was ported to Gog because unfortunately stuck on 3DS and WiiU because even today it is my favorite Monster Hunter for its atmosphere and especially on the fact that it is the only one which offers the underwater hunting mechanics which divided but which personally I had really liked

Eternal Sonata
Eternal SonataEternal Sonata is a role-playing video game developed by tri-Crescendo and published by Namco Bandai Games. The game is centered on the Polish romantic pianist and composer Frédéric Chopin, who died of tuberculosis at the age of 39. The story envisions a fictional world dreamed by Chopin during his last hours that is influenced by Chopin's life and music, and in which he himself is a playable character, among others. The game's battle system centers on musical elements and character-unique special attacks. Light and darkness play a part in the appearance and abilities of enemies on the battlefield, as well as the types of magic that can be cast. The game features a selection of Chopin's compositions played by pianist Stanislav Bunin, though the original compositions were composed and arranged by Motoi Sakuraba. It is notable for its use of classical piano pieces, educational cutscenes featuring real paintings and photographs (in contrast to the cel-shading graphics of the game) and lush landscape design.
