Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate implements region-locked servers. As a result, you’ll only be able to play the game online with others in the same territory as you.
Let’s say you live in the US. Unfortunately, the region-lock will prevent you from experiencing Ultimate with gamers in Europe and Japan.
Capcom community specialist Yuri Araujo, a noted Monster Hunter fan, is none too pleased with the news. While Araujo noted that he’ll be passing along “the demand and feedback”
I’m not thrilled with the servers being split either… I am definitely aware of the demand and feedback, not only in this thread, but also from threads before finding out these bad news; so be sure that I will pass it along.
There is no guarantee this will change though. =/
According to their Q3 financial briefing (how many more of these do we have!?), Assassin’s Creed 3 managed to rake in quite a bit of money for Ubisoft. 14 million copies of the game were “sold-in”, which is up 70% from what Revelations managed to sell in the same time period.
Good job, Ubisoft!
A new Call of Duty game is coming this year. Surprised? Didn’t think so!
Activision shared the news during its fourth quarter calender 2012 results. The company didn’t divulge any specific details, however.

BioWare Montreal is busy making the next Mass Effect. When the team and publisher EA are finally ready to announce the title, it probably won’t be known as Mass Effect 4.
Writing on the official BioWare forums, community manager Chris Priestly said that calling the next game Mass Effect 4 would be “doing it a disservice”.
