Some professional-grade work from Monster Hunter fan extraordinaire, Unity's own COMtributer.

In addition to the fine editing and professional voice work, you also get a helpful rundown of some features for Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (that's Unite, but I think should be pronounced "Yoo-neh-tay" :)

Check out his blog for the full story.

The doors to the Tokyo Game Show opened and grown men were running to the Capcom booth.  In addition to the insane lines for Resident Evil 5 and Street Fighter 4, the longest lines were for Monster Hunter 3, aka "Tri," which is on the verge of becoming Japan's national sport.

Joystiq has some video clips of the pulsing masses thronging to grab Wii-motes, in addition to that beautiful, beautiful trailer.  

Check out part 1 and part 2 of their coverage now!

Japan is... different.  Awesome, but different. 

Capcom is offering Monster Hunter fans a chance to take a tour of lovely Okinawa with the Monster Hunter team!

The trip starts on October 25th, but it ain't cheap.Two nights and three days will run you about $1,500.00, but you'll get to hike, BBQ, and of course, play some Monster Hunter with the creators. No word on whether they'll be releasing a Komodo dragon for attendees to hack into bits with oversized cutlery.

What could be more thrilling than a marketing survey?  How about MONSTER HUNTER marketing survey?

Clearly we're already in danger of overexciting everybody, so just to calm things down, let me say that this survey is targeting specific segments of France and the UK.  So yeah, this survey isn't for everyone, but since the Unity crowd is pretty international, I thought I'd share and give you a chance to tell us your thoughts.
