Product Description
Players will hunt in different eras in search of trophies such as white-tailed deer, Yukon moose, Alaskan brown bear and Roosevelt elk in over ten of North America's top hunting locations, including Kodiak Island, the Yukon and the Rocky Mountains. Each location in Cabela's Legendary Adventures is a visually stunning open outdoor environment that encourages exploration and tactical variation. Shooting mechanics have been developed to reflect modern as well as historical hunting technology, so players relive the hunts complete with detail from specific time periods.

1 out of 5 stars Bad Programming   September 25, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Good game in concept but the landscape turns black and white from the Zion Park stage on out. Everything else is color but the main part, the landscape, stays black and white which really makes it difficult to spot the game and totally takes away from the gaming experience as a whole. Another problem occurs when trying to cross checkpoints. The program keep sreturning you to the wrong starting position and won't let you go beyond. Too bad Hunting Unlimited 2008 isn't available on Wii because it is the best Hunting game I've yet to see hit the market. Save your money on this one though...unless you like playing 90% with a black and white landscape.


2 out of 5 stars A shot in the dark... and sadly it misses.   September 21, 2008

I have always enjoyed the Cabela's Big Game Hunter series, so I figured I would give this one a try on the Wii.

I was enthralled at first by the way the game is a story told throughout the history of hunting "legendary trophy animals."

The game play is quite simple: track the legendary trophy and do a few side hunts along the way. After doing enough of the extra little tests (ex. "Kill 10 turkeys in under 2 minutes", "shoot 2 raccoons from under 50 yards with one shot each"), the trophy appears and you must kill it.

All fine and dandy until you start shooting at your trophy(goes into slow-motion bullet view) or walk too close to the edge of the map... the game fatal errors and locks up the Wii.

Have tried cleaning the disc, the Wii, the connections... does not change a thing. Once in a while it will even crash at the starting movie.

Great idea for a game, but bad/rushed programming makes this a game you should not buy.
