Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The hunter has just become the HUNTED! The next evolution of hunting has taken a dangerous turn. Get ready for hunting action unlike anything you've ever encountered, with "kill or be killed" consequences that will leave you trembling at the knees and fearing for your life.

Players will be confronted with a series of hunting situations that will enhance their skills and help them develop a sense of identity with their on-screen hunter. Upon successful completion of the various challenges, chartered hunts and more challenges will become available. You'll earn money for your successful adventures along the way and will be able to use that money to buy a collection of hunting gear that would make any hunter envious.

The real stars of this game however, are the animals. They will engage you with more realistic--and often aggressive--behavior. You might encounter a mountain lion while hunting mule deer in the canyons of Wyoming, or be forced into a precarious position to get a good shot at a Kodiak brown bear. In addition to your primary weapon, you'll also have a pistol or a knife that can be drawn and used in self-defense when an animal attacks. Rugged mountains, canyons and ravines, dense forests and rolling hills with water boundaries all will present unique and challenging obstacles to test your hunting skills.

Features Include:

• 27 big game animals to hunt
• 12 exotic locations throughout the world
• 3 modes of gameplay featuring: Quick Hunt, Action Zone, and Career Hunt
• 1000s of authentic gear options including: 11 rifles, 3 handguns, 2 bows, 1 crossbow, 3 knives, plus 4 different scopes

This review is from: Cabela's Dangerous Hunts (CD-ROM)

I have three hunting games, two of them are Cabela's - they're the good ones. Dangerous hunts is my favorite. I especially enjoy the suspense aspect of this one. When ever you do a hunt there is always the danger of a predator coming out of nowhere and attacking you.

If you decide to hunt down a predator or cape buffalo, they will charge you once you've been detected. Moose may or may not charge you, sometimes they run the other way.

You can hunt other deer and antelope on this one, but you'll eventually see a predator sooner or later.

The armament selection is good and game play is easy and straight forward. The graphics are outstanding, the visual realism is impressive. You'll need a good upper end computer for this game.

This is a great game. Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2004, 2005, 2006, and Cabela's Deer Hunt 2005 are also very good. This game is a good one to choose for beginning hunters. The Big Game Hunter series is good for average hunters. Deer Hunt is
for experienced hunters.
The scenery is one of the best things about these games.
In Dangerous Hunts you can go to Africa as well as North America.

This review is from: Cabela's Dangerous Hunts (CD-ROM)

I started playing this game a week ago and I love it! It has tons of challenging missions that are hard. The best mission I've played is "Grizzly Nearby." I can never kill deer because they hear you from a mile away. I love to hunt the dangerous animals because I get excited and mess up some times. I have not beaten the game yet but I love it and if you like hunting, you'll LOVE this too!!
