Until now, I had not found a 3D game that impressed me enough to make me leave the 3D on, but Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate has done an amazing job with the 3D! It is easy to get it into focus and everything truly has depth. When hunting, you are going to want to leave it on. I couldn’t figure out how to hit some of the flying monsters until I turned on 3D. Once I did, I could see instantly what I needed to do. Even if you’re like me and never play in 3D for long, you should check it out in Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate because they have pulled off something amazing!
The background music is quite nice and soothing. It’s nothing that I couldn’t stop listening to though, so personally I kept the sound turned down most of the time. I didn’t find that having it on helped in battles and the character’s speech is all text that you read on the screen.
