Monster Hunter Tri really holds a special place for me. As a teenager I only had a Wii during that console generation, and there reached a point where I was getting disinterested in the typical Nintendo releases. I wanted something a bit meatier, and I've been hooked on Monster Hunter ever since. Tri also had probably the best social interaction with randoms in an online game that I've ever played, and even in the brand. The Loc Lac hub holds so many fond memories for me and the flagship monster of that release, Lagiacrus is still my favorite momster in the series.
