I haven't even played the original MH, but I already know that it isn't better than MHGen.

Sure, MHGen may not be the best MH Game, but MH1 must be more buggy, annoying, and difficult than MHGen, plus MHGen has way more ways to hunt, with more weapons, and styles/arts, and Prowlers. MHGen has more monsters, and better revamps of older mons as well. I'd much rather hunt the New-World Raths from MH3 On rather than the Old-World Raths from before that.

I could go on further as to why MH1 is not better than MHGen, but I'll save the rest of that rant for later.

But, yeah, though MHGen may not be the best MH Game, (I kinda like 4U a little bit more), the first game in no way could really be better than MHGen.
