DESCRIPTION

Outdoor outfitter Cabela's continues its risk-embracing hunting series with another selection of the fiercest animals nature has to offer. Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2009 puts gamers in the boots of master hunter Flint Abrams as he travels the world on a series of missions to dispatch dangerous creatures such as grizzly bears, lions, and hyenas. Players are given three weapons: a high-powered rifle for long-range attacks, a short-range gun, and an emergency sidearm, but if a shot isn't on target then gamers may have to resort to melee combat to survive. Players can use Abrams' Hunter Sense to slow time and highlight animals and their tracks, and hunting gear and accessories such as scents and animal calls are also available. But in the unpredictable world of Cabela's Dangerous Hunts, gamers must always be on alert, because the hunt may see them wading through piranha-infested waters, scrambling away from stampeding elephants, or accidentally triggering an avalanche. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide
