We couldn't wait to get home with this game and pop it into the PS2. None of us were too impressed (there was me, 33 yo female, a 15 yo female, 9 yo male, and 4 yo male). We all played it for about 15 minutes each then decided to go swimming instead...it was a lot less frustrating. The graphics are ok but it's tricky to figure out how to move your guy around. It's like watching paint dry to hunt out your animals then once they are in sight, they come at you with a vengeance. Any shot at all that hits the animal is highly praised, which is good for the kiddos. When you're first gearing up, you pick a player and have about a thousand options as to how to customize him/her...a completely useless waste of time...all you ever see is the hand and the gun anyway, so who the heck cares what they look like, what color the eyes are...etc??? Also, when my 15 yo niece was playing, she was doing the Cordova range, and she came upon a camp with a guy writhing around in pain...there was no mention at all in the manual as to what was supposed to be done (she actually tried to shoot the poor guy to put him out of his misery, but the game wouldn't allow it). It was so frustrating she had to start completely over. All in all, I probably wouldn't buy this game again, certainly not for this price.
there have been good games but this one is almost the best. Cabelas Alaskan Adventures, Cabelas big game hunter 2008, and Cabelas dangerous hunts have been the best huntig games i've ever played. this game allows you to hunt in jueneau, seward penensula, yukon delta, north slope, kodiak island, sitka, cordova, and more! you can ice fish, fly fishing, and use a spin reel.
