The Family Loves It!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.My family loves the game so much I had to buy a second copy of the game. So everybody could take turns playing and helping each other online. It's a great game that is very colorful and the story is great. We are loving all the different monsters the game has and the kinship moves each monster has to offer.

Pocket Monsties Sword&Shield (or Hunting Horn)
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.I enjoyed the first MHST on the 3DS quite a bit, revisiting the game about a month before this was due to come out. And then the demo for MHST2 arrived, and WOW what an upgrade! As you might expect, the sequel improves upon every aspect of the original. Characters and environments are now rendered a little less cartoonishly, with more realistic proportions, but no less lovingly for it. Characters (and monsters!) are expressive and well-animated while the environments, armors, and weapons pop with color and detail. The paper-rock-scissors battle system returns with added depth, strategy, and functionality. You now can equip three weapons at a time to switch between during turns to press your advantage. And when you’ve leveled up enough above the current crop of monsters you’re running into in an area, you can just hit ZL+ZR to quick-finish a fight! Great for grinding. The story is compelling enough; while it’s no great drama it’s fun and pulls you along. You don’t need to have played the first game to enjoy this but there are returning characters that players will recognize and welcome. This is a Monster Hunter game, an RPG, and somehow much more than the sum of its parts. This is the best Pokémon game to come out in years, too. Seriously.

What experts are saying
Q: QuestionDid anyone receive their preorder bonus from their online order? I don’t see it in the receipt and it didn’t come with the game.
Asked by Guest.
- A:Answer I contacted support and they told me the publisher has not provided any codes for the pre-order bonus. I had them escalate the issue to the publisher. Hopefully we will hear back from them to send us the preorder bonus codes via email.

Q: QuestionWill BestBuy offer a pre order bonus for physical copies of the game?
Asked by Dani.
- A:Answer They were supposed to, but many people who pre-ordered here didn't receive the code. I contacted the publisher (Capcom) and they said they provided codes to all retailers, so I guess it's safer to preorder elsewhere next time.
