Fun but no very challenging 
2008-09-11
This is a fun game. Even my 4 year old likes it. It is pretty easy and not much of a challenge.
Fun for a little while 2008-07-02
You're gonna dig this game for a few weeks, but it gets old shortly. Only so much you can do with hunting hooven animals. Does get fun in the higher modes when you get attacked, but otherwise not much challenge.
Fun, good game, price a little high 
2008-06-12
Fun game. I give it a solid 4.5. Several people talk about how good the game is...Amazing! I like hunting and action games alot, and this definately seems like one of the better ones. Don't rent it, buy it. The only thing on the down side is the price. It was $18.05 a earlier today, so I left it in the basket. A half hour later I came back to proceed to the checkout and it had increased to $29.99. I seriously can't believe my luck today. Cabela has release a new game called "Cabela's Buck Tropheys," and has another one on the way! How can they charge $30 for the game when a new one has been released and another is in the making? You might as well shoot the bucks instead of spending them! If the price drops to $19.99, don't hesitate, buy it. Over all, pretty good game. If the price drops, I will buy it first thing tommorow. I recommend it to all gamers who like hunting, action, and outdoor games. And it definately stands by its ESRB rating. Now, go and get yourself a copy before everyone starts calling Costco expensive.
Not what we expected!

We were hoping you can just pick the location you want to hunt in, but you can't. Also you can hunt just any animal. You have to hunt what the came wants you to hunt, and if you kill a different animal you get warned. We are not to impressed with the game.
Wii Big Game Hunter 2008-05-30
This was a gift for my adult son, who is an avid, experienced hunter. He breezed through it; didn't think it was difficult enough. It was a "deal" when I purchased it, so I don't know if the "teen" rating was visible or not - if I had seen it, I wouldn't have purchased the game.
Makes my husband dizzy, not what we expected 2008-05-14

Twenty-four different North American big game animals to hunt. Play Career Hunt or jump right into the action with Quick Hunt for immediate satisfaction. Realistic 3D animal models reflect a variety of ages, genders, and sizes.
complicated 2008-05-12
This game is a little more complicated than just a shooting game. I am a novice with game controllers (which is why I like the wii) and find this game a challenge. I was still able to shoot some game and hope that with time, I will improve. I like the graphics and sounds. I gave it a 4 just because it's currently out of my skill level, but hope that with time that will change!
REALLY FUN! 
2008-05-12
THIS GAME IS CLASSIC! I just became a hunting game fanatic, this game did it. I couldn't stop playing it the first week I got. I now need to beat it on a higher level.I hope they put out part two with some upgrades!
Aiming is difficult 2008-02-13
The graphics are pretty impressive. It's a one-player game only. However, aiming the "gun" is very difficult. The cross-hairs on the screen do not coincide with the aim of the controller. I wanted to use the Perfect Shot gun with this game, but you can't aim the gun and expect it to shoot where you aim. There is no correlation between your hand and the cross-hairs on the screen. I wasted money on the two guns, plus I got the crossbow gun and game and found the same is true with that game as well. You can't look down the gun and aim at anything on the screen and hope to hit it! You can't do anything to alleviate the inconsistency either.
7 year old son 2008-01-14
This game was a little difficult to get the hang of at first - having to use the remote as a guide to see and the nunchuk to move around. The first time my son played it, he didn't play long. After a week had passed, he tried again. We then played with the remotes and figured out how to use the scope and night vision modes. Since then he has played it almost daily. He does use something to prop his arm on so he can remain still while aiming.
