I need to go back to 999.
Also Stranger Things is really good, last episode is a little weak though.

Even if it's non existent in Japan he can hop on this thing called the internet to play with other people.

I think I literally can't listen to people talk about 999 when they haven't actually finished it yet or are playing the iOS version.

Did anyone catch the name of that MHGen Twitch Group they mentioned? The episode already deleted itself on my podcast app and I'm not exactly looking forward to scrubbing through the first hour again...

this guide is incredible, its my first time with monster hunter and a 3ds, such a good experience to have with a brand new console and a new game series.

@getter404: the twitch group chat starts around 14:30 I believe the group is the Poogie Platoon.
