A young, confident and skilled hunter and outdoorsman, his potential has been recognized by the mysterious "Orion Order," an ultra-exclusive hunting club with international connections.

I've only been introduced to the series for about a week now and I was playing Cabela's Big Game Hunter on the PS2. Now I know the game isn't the greatest due to the graphics and it being an older system and all, but the only aspect of the game that gave me a problem was the fishing aspect. In the newer version Cabela's Gig Game Hunter 2010 the graphics have made a huge leap in the right direction and some of the in game chalenges are quite fun to play. If you didn't enjoy the fishing portion in the older games than this one is for you, fish are spared in this game and I'm glad.

If your not into the whole hunting game and don't want to shell out $40 than I say at least rent in and enjoy the graphics as well as hunting big game animals.

P.S. No real animals were hurt durning the making of this game.

If you want success on every hunt, this is your game. The animals just mill around in the open while your character can approach to within a few yards. I try not to use the "Hunter's Sense", as that makes finding the animals way easy. The game keeps your scope locked on a specific target animal making a kill even easier.

I'd prefer to play a game where you actually had to "hunt", rather than just point and shoot.

Some animals are realistic. Bears do chase you but Mountain Lions do not! The Truth about wildcats is they only attack when theyre hungry or you provoke them. If theyre not hungry they will move on. But overall this game is fun.
