4.0 out of 5 stars Bring on the next animal!, January 18, 2008

This review is from: Cabela's Big Game Hunter (Video Game)

I love reading all of the poor reviews by the nose up in the air activists and new century gamers who don't have a clue as to what a hunting game should be. First off this game succeeded where the other Big Game Hunter games failed. It brought adventure back into hunting without being to ridiculous like the over zealous Dangerous Hunts 2 which was almost impossible to finish due to it's extremely hard game play. It also avoided the whole (animals charging out of the wilderness aspect) such as the case was with Cabela's Alaskan Adventure. This game was first and foremost a beautiful game to look at. The graphics were more than acceptable and even an improvement over many of Cabela's previous titles. People sometimes forget that this is an older system and one that was a dramatic improvement over PS1. They may not be (PS3 Graphics) but they're not bad at all for PS2. The CAREER HUNT game play was really a whole lot of fun with doing such things as sneaking up on animals and taking that long distance shot, to fighting the (main character) animals which are waiting for you at the end of each region. You meet guides and various people along the way who actually have personalities and provide you with information and/or ask favors. There are also MINI-GAMES along the way in which you get a chance to shoot birds and small animals for prizes. You also get to interact with your environment a little such as using buttons to climb walls and cross logs while unlocking various weapons and items along the way. Some of the main animals are easy to kill while others are extremely hard to kill and although the amount of bullets some of these animals can take may be unrealistic, it certainly does make for a much more interesting and adventurous game. The instant hunts are a welcome change as far as I'm concerned do to the fact that they provide you with all the equipment you need right off the bat and the objectives actually vary from hunt to hunt. The coolest thing in the world is when you take that first shot and actually see the bullet penetrating the air around it nailing the target form various camera angles. The Hunter-Sense is a much better way to view the animals rather than the red dots from the previous installments of this game. Overall if you are actually in the mood for a fun game that isn't to hard or to easy and gives you a chance to hunt several different kinds of animals including Wild Boars, African Kudus, Cougars, Jackals, and even deadly cats such as Panthers and Lions as well as traveling to various locations around the globe, than this game should become part of your collection. I own every one of the Cabela's games and this is by far one of my favorites. P.S. to the Animal Activists.....it's a f__king computer program!! It's not real!! Save a tree, hug a seal, but please above all else: Shut the ____ up!

I bought this game for my son for Christmas, and he loves it. It is not too violent, but seems to satisfy his taste for "real" game hunting. I would recommend this video game to others.
