X360 Monster Hunter Frontier Online Beginner's Package - New

NCS Product Synopsis
«©NCSX» Originally a PC-exclusive MMORPG, Capcom ports Monster Hunter Frontier Online to the Xbox 360. When the PC version was released a few years ago, Capcom banned all foreign IPs from accessing the Monster Hunter Frontier servers. We think it was a case of gaming xenophobia where foreigners were all branded persona non grata. Despite the ban, savvy gamers outside of Japan were still able to play the game by using a proxy server based in Japan.

In Monster Hunter, players team up with like-minded gamers and go out into the wilderness to slay some beasts. Lower-level creatures are easy to dispatch but larger and more formidable monsters take an entire gang of warriors to bring down. Missions and quests may be curried from the Hunter Guild which pay a reward upon successful completion. The Xbox 360 version of MHFO is based on the PC version of the game but Capcom lists 14 original weapons (swords, hammers, etc) that are available in the X360 edition. The preorder details also mention that a bonus DLC card will be given away to early reservations in 50% ratio. This ratio means that for every 2 copies of the game NCS imports, we'll receive 1 DLC card.
