I live in Hagerstown, MD and you can buy games off of people in the street that hasnt even come out yet. I bought Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2005 and Need For Speed Underground 2 about a week ago. I have and played every recent Cabela's Hunter game out there for the PlayStation 2 and I must say Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2005 is a great improvment. There are greatly improved graphics in the animals and in the enviroments and the gameplay has improved much too, like now you can run longer without losing your breath, you have much much better guns, knives, bow and arrows, and now they've added traps to the game. The enviroments are incredible, there is much bigger landscaping and room for you to move in and yes, there is climing up hills without sliding and dieing. The animals are incredible, there are lions, tigers. cheetahs, buffalo, baboons, rhinos, elephants, and big big bears, so watch out! And believe it or not, while I just reached the top of a mountian there was a UFO flying in the air! There arent that many cons about this game exept for the guy who ticks you off when you shoot the wrong animal and he says "Warning, I told you..." Gosh, I hate that guy. Well, thats about it for my review. I hope it has helped you, alot! I gave this game a rating of 5 stars in fun and 4 stars in gameplay.

It works ok on my computer, except that in the final campaign I can no longer access my inventory and re-installing didn't help. In the first scenario, when you are hunting in the "jungle of South Dakota" the trees and brush are so thick you can't see your quarry. The red dots aren't much help, because the animals can be ten feet from you or ten miles away. When you finally manage to get out of the initial scenario, the game picks up and becomes quite enjoyable. But my hunter keeps fainting, for no apparent reason, even when he's wearing proper clothing and I keep plying him with food and drinks and keep him at a walk. Very annoying when you've finally hit a big horn sheep with the requisite bow-and-arrow, and your hunter faints! (What a wimp!) It's kind of neat when a bear or other predator sneaks up on you and mauls you. (No, really!) Though I doubt if the game warden would merely find you unconscious after you've been mauled by a grizzly! The graphics after the first scenario are gorgeous and highly detailed. Except for these really lovely graphics, there isn't much to recommend it over the many other hunting games on the market. Oh, well - buy it on sale!
