    The most authentic hunting experience you will ever find in a PC game.

    To be honest, i only played RTS games and FPS shooters but since i took a view at this demo, it totally changed my view on Simulator games. Well done for a low budget game and sooo realistic. I didn't had to think twice to buy this game. Greetz from Milan in Belgium.

    I have hunted for several years in Indiana and Virginia and this game is the closest I have seen a simulation come to the real thing. The AI for the animals is amazing in normal and hard modes and in easy mode would work as a wonderful tool to teach young hunters what to look for in the field...

    Fun game, very relaxing and with surprisingly good AI (although, still far from realistic, and there are some bugs). This game is mainly about the anticipation of a kill, much more than the actual shooting (a skilled hunter only needs one shot). That said, you do have to take wind, distance and bullet drop into account when shooting.

    The fact that there could be alot of time before you even see a deer would probably bore the average call of duty player, but the anticipation is a large part of the game.

    The reason it only gets 7 out of 10 is because the lack of content, there are quite few weapons and maps etc.    … Expand

    For a budget title, this game performs its duties to the utmost of my expectations, and even beyond, in some aspects.

    Cabela's therefore is more suited to you if you're an extremely casual gamer, or if you're more into instant action. Atari's entry is more streamlined, more simple, and more realistic (plus has no easy ways to find deer, which forces you to track or trap intelligently).
