![]() ![]() A game in 2011 has absolutely no online gameplay of any sort. ![]() Animals running through the brush and birds chirping all sound realistic. Audio: Nothing really stands out about it, but its definitely not bad. Control Scheme: If you have played first person shooters then it will be familiar. I guess hopping in a tree stand and sniping a dear in the heart from 500 yards away is pretty cool, but not really that great after the first ten times. You only have a few seconds to aim and fire to save your life. a cougar jumped out of nowhere and attacked me. I did like the actual hunting experience when there were a few tense moments, e.g. Sure you can go back and play the levels over, but there is just no variation. My biggest problem with the game is that it's bare bones and linear. The game also sports the occasional “bullet time” effects. A lot of virtual hunters will like the fact that the shooting takes into account wind and bullet drop. ![]() The aiming mechanic works similar to any standard first person shooter. Simulation/Realismįrom a pure aiming and shooting standpoint, Big Game Hunter 2012 does a fine job. There is also an interesting feature where you can upload your kill stats to Facebook. The menus are slick and its not hard to navigate. There are also instances where it can be drab and colors look dull. Graphically the game is more than adequate, dare I say beautiful at times. It just doesn’t mesh with how hunting should be. My biggest issue is simply the feeling of being forced fed throughout the game. This was marginally fun, but not enough to make me really want to play it more than once or twice. There is a mode called “Galleries” where you and another human player can shoot things duckhunt style. It's accurate, easy to use and, oh, and it's a freaking bow.Ī mixed bag is the only thing that can describe the gameplay as a whole. They all worked well, but I personally enjoyed using the compound bow the most. Howver, you do have a decent selection of weapons two rifles, a shotgun, a hunting pistol and a compound bow. While it's always fun upgrading your weapons, I can’t help but feel like the upgrades don't have much of an affect in game. Then with those points, you can upgrade your weapon. If you do this successfully you will score some extra points. These include shooting a deer in the heart, an Elk in the lungs and so on. You are given you certain objectives that you have to pass during hunts. The game basically centers on a group of gentlemen who are competing in a hunting tournament around the country. There is no exploring for the most part, which is unfortunate because that could add a whole new aspect to the genre. My hand is constantly being held as I go from hunt to hunt. The source of my frustration comes from how forced the gameplay feels. That’s not to say it’s a great game if you enjoy the sport, because it’s not. Gameplay Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2012 is definitely a game for hunters, or those who aspire to hunt. While Cabela’s Big Game Hunter ’12 tries to change this with a story based hunting experience, it never really delivers anything but a mediocre venture. There has never been anything about them to reel in non-hunting gamers. Hunting games have always been a niche genre. ![]()
