At last, a winner of the  Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate Weapon Design contest is revealed! Behold the  Emperor’s Speech by Lin Setzekorn !

Pharaoh Man’s Phorum Picks – What is a spin-off?

Jul 01, 2014 // GregaMan

It’s been awhile since Pharaoh Man’s come around these parts, recommending phorum threads of note, hurling suns at us and such. But here he is again, with a Mega Man thread, no less! 

Thread – Which games are considered the “main” Mega Man games?

OP JediLink asks, what Mega Man series in the IP’s vast and varied history is the “main” one? Which games are just spin-offs?

While this thread may not have one correct answer and should probably be moved to the Mega Man forum section, it has definitely provoked a lot of interesting thought and discussion. How exactly do all those games and series weave together? Who is the “main character” of Mega Man? What exactly is a “spin-off” in the first place? You  be the judges!

Thanks for the though-provoking thread, JediLink.

MH4U monster spotlight: Seltas and Seltas Queen

Jun 28, 2014 // Yuri Araujo

A monster couple joins the Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate roster, featuring some deadly tandem attacks!

As we enter a new Monster Hunter generation, we can expect new additions that break previously set conventions of what monsters should look like or how they should behave. For the first time, we now have a pair of monsters that work in complete synchronized forms: the Seltas and Seltas Queen !

First up is the Seltas; you’ll actually fight this guy pretty early on in the game. He’s got very strong wings and will dart at you at ridiculous speeds using his pointy arrow-like head to cause pain! He also has a projectile move that can be quite a nuisance.

Later on, you’ll encounter the female of the species, the Seltas Queen! This one is causes a lot more trouble (and pain) than her male counterpart. Featuring a harder carapace and a deadly set of pincers on her tail, she will surely give you a harder time.

However, the most interesting part of hunting these monsters is their ability to join forces and combine attacks!

The Seltas Queen will often release pheromones to attract a male Seltas; she then proceeds to grab him and plant him on her back. Together, they can do simultaneous combined attacks or even individual attacks, covering all their bases!

And if you think these monsters look totally awesome (I certainly do!), here are some of the equipment you can make from them:

Bow


Hammer


Blademaster


Gunner

Check back next week to read about one of the hottest Elder Dragons around! 😉

Jun 26, 2014 // Yuri Araujo

Say you were very busy during E3 2014 and couldn’t watch our special Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate  live streams. Well, they are now on YouTube, just for you!

Unfortunately, since this is just a recording of the actual live stream, you don’t get to vote on the weapon we should use! See? You should really try to make it to the streams because we were one vote away from picking your favorite weapon (I think)!

Anyways, here’s day 1:

And day 2:

I’m still working on editing/uploading day 3, which is just Brett and I, but was still a lot of fun, so stay tuned!
