Cabela's Dangerous Hunts is a video game published by Cabela's (a popular hunting, fishing, and outdoor equipment retailer) and Activision for the Playstation 2 and Xbox game consoles.[1]
Dangerous Hunts is a first-person shooter in which the player goes on hunting adventures. The game features Quick Hunt, which lets players jump right into the action by choosing a hunting tag and killing the required animal. The Action Zone, which gives players an objective target to hunt. Career Mode, which lets players create a profile and then customize their stats, age, and appearance. In all 3 modes there are penalties for killing harmless animals, which will result in failing. Terrain is another thing the player must pay attention to. Falling into deep streams or off of high ledges can result in an injury and failing the hunt. Aggressive animals such as bear, cape buffalo, and leopard will attack you, which too results in injury and failure. The player also has an energy limit. After a while the player will become tired and need to slow down. This effect can be reduced by carrying lighter equipment and conserving energy.
There are 12 exotic locations which feature 27 animals, both exotic and average. Game like rhino, zebra, and hyena are more challenging then your common deer, elk, and wolf. There are also a variety of weapons to choose from. 11 types of rifles, 2 types of handguns, 2 types of bows, 1 crossbow and 3 large hunting knives for protection. The player can also use different items to aid in the hunt. Items like ground blinds, scent removers, and different animal calls will help attract the animals. This game is featured in the Playstation 2's Greatest Hits series. The game also spawned a sequel, Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2, which was released in 2005 for the Playstation 2, Xbox, PC and GameCube.
This Game was given a 6.8/10 by IGN, and a 6.1/10 by the press. The game was said to have "passable" gameplay and a very neat feel to it.
