We’ve decided to start a weekly mailbag feature, where we answer your questions as best we can!  We’re just testing this out, but if you like it we’ll just keep it going!

Want to take part?  Simply submit a question on Twitter to @thedcd and @primagames (together, please) and we’ll answer whatever we can for you.  

Let’s get to this week’s questions…

From @venomousfatman – How do you guys feel about the recent comments from Capcom about Monster Hunter?  You think it should be on all consoles?

Considering how profitable the Monster Hunter series has been for Capcom, I can’t figure out why they haven’t brought it to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 yet.  A vastly drawn next-gen world, online multiplayer, downloadable content…it’s practically a cash cow waiting to happen.  Maybe Capcom’s just waiting for the right time in next-gen game development to introduce it.  But c’mon, it should happen.  Just ask any die-hard Monster Hunter fan…

From @H20Acidic – What are next week’s winning #’s?

42 and 69.  Remember, we get half the winnings.

From @jamileh – What is the airspeed of a swallow?

Wait, you mean a moving swallow?  Because the roasted one we ate last week got nowhere fast.

From @5tubborn – What is the most enjoying guide @primagames ever made?

My personal favorite is the Mass Effect 3 guide.  Loaded with info and beautiful imagery, and in hardcover too.  Pick it up if you get a chance.

From @mattjsour – Is asking a question about asking what kinds of questions to ask an appropriate question?

Yes.  Now shut up.

From @agentcoop007 – Who would win in a fight?  Caveman or spaceman?

Caveman has club, spaceman has laser pistol.  Easy win for spaceman.  Just ask Han Solo.

From @siggy_p – Why don’t we see apps in PS3/Xbox 360 for Prima games that can be used during games?

Personally, I just think physical guides work just better, but we do have a bunch of strategy videos you should check out on both platforms!

From @emredurhan – What is the next big thing for @primagames to cover?

With all the great games coming up, there’s a TON to cover.  You can expect top-notch coverage of Halo 3, Call of Duty: Black Ops II, Resident Evil 6 and Assassin’s Creed III, at the very least, with much, much more to come.

From @jaypx85 – What’s the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe and everything?

Wear pants.  And clean underwear.  Your mother will thank you.

From @xboxladygamer – Are you excited for the Black Ops 2 Zombies trailer?

Is NASA excited about Moon Rovers?  Hell yes.

From @downsouthtigger – Was Tupac correct in the 2nd verse of “Changes”?  If so how did he predict this before his death?

We’ll ask him the next time he pops up virtually in our office.

From @vegan8zombie – What is the first guide @primagames covered?

I wasn’t with the company for that duration of time, but they got their start YEARS ago doing guides for GamePro, such as Nintendo Game Secrets and Sega Genesis Game Secrets.  And of course they also did guides for specific games like Myst and The 7th Guest.  Yep, they’ve been around a WHILE.

From @mumbles_74 – DC or Marvel?

C’mon…did you see The Avengers?!

From @GurpreetK2 – When will my question be answered?

Next year.

That’ll do it for this week, but don’t be afraid to ask more game-related (or not-so-game-related) questions by heading to Twitter and sending them to @thedcd and @primagames .  We’ll see you next time on the Mailbag!
