    [Rumour] Monster hunter on the vita?

    http://m.kotaku.com/5929528/this-mig...r-it-might-not

    Kotaku has posted these screenshots of what seems to be a new monster hunter game running on the vita. Now after the fake news about versus XIII being cancelled, id be very wary of any news that don't come from a direct source, although these do look like MH.. This game would definitely move lots of vitas in Japan and maybe over here too, that's for sure. Your opinions guys?

    It would be EXTREMELY beneficial to Sony to get MonHun on the Vita. Not only did it help spur a turnaround for the 3DS, but was it not one of the flagship titles that led the PSP to what it is in the country today? While I can't comment on how real/not real the news source is, if I were Sony, I'd be trying REALLY hard to get MH4 to be a multiplat title, lol.

    Fake. It says Fraps on top, along with this little update:

    We always said this was shaky, but we initially missed one important detail that should have put this even more in the "probable hoax" category. A third image, not initially shown in this post but viewable in the link below, includes a fraps.com watermark. Fraps is a video-capture program commonly used to record video of PC games. It looks like someone grabbed a scene of this game through Fraps and then put it on Vita. Sorry to get any Monster Hunter fans' hopes up.
    Yeeaahh...you can close this thread now..:/

    Come on, MonHun is not coming to the PS Vita anytime soon, or else Sony wouldn't go to the trouble of creating their own MonHun knock-off.

    Ragnarok Odyssey, Soul Sacrifice, with other games to be announced as well, we're not without games to fill that gap.

    Either a clone game or the real thing (Games are all developed on PC, the fraps mark could be there for any number of reasons beyond it being fake).

    I'd guess it's just Kotaku trying to generate another rumor so someone with more authority will link to them. It's also by the same author as the Versus 13 rumor. Absolutely not true.
    Sigh, Kotaku used to be a pretty decent site. If the article wasn't very clear the comments would give better information and interesting discussion to boot. Ever since the commenting system changed though, a lot of the good posters left.

    well about Versus' cancellation, posting that rumour might have been wrong, but at least Squenix had the decency to reply and actually give us some kind of info, info that was lacking. I mean we didnt know if the game was even being worked on. By clearing that rumour we got a pretty pleasant piece of news. Sometimes rumours can be a good thing i guess :P
