Activision is bringing Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 on September 29 for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii. The Wii version is getting some special treatment as it will be packaged with a Top Shot hunting peripheral gun. The Wii version will also see 13 arcade style shooting galleries and four-player multiplayer.
The other new features sound pretty interesting too. There's going to be a system called VITALS where you can see some of the insides of the animals before taking your shot. This picture here shows off the insides of an Elk. Shoot it in the spine!
You guys and gals looking foward to shooting up wild animals for fun?
THE WORLD IS YOUR HUNTING GROUND IN ACTIVISION PUBLISHING’S CABELA’S BIG GAME HUNTER 2010
Big Game Excitement Just Got Bigger!
MINNEAPOLIS, MN – August 21, 2009 – Activision Publishing, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATVI) announced today that Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2010 will be released September 29 in North America for Wii™, Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system. The Wii™ version can be purchased with the innovative Top Shot hunting peripheral, packaged with the game. In Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2010, the player must combine precision, guts, and technology to earn a place among world's most respected hunters.
“We are elevating the first person action hunting genre because it’s what fans demand,” said David Oxford, Activision Publishing. “Skill, extreme danger, real world equipment – you get all of that in Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2010, and it all takes place in stunningly rendered outdoor environments packed with animals that look and act like the real thing.”
In Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2010, players seek “Super Hunter” status aiming to take their “game” to the next level and join the ranks of hunting’s best of the best - a club where it takes much more than tall tales to gain respect. Players must prove their fearlessness and ability by successfully bagging the largest trophies in the world's most rugged regions. The most prized animals can only be reached by climbing cliffs, crossing raging rivers, and facing countless more perilous situations. Brand new elements, such as rewards for successfully using cover to progress through missions and a VITALS system which helps players visualize the perfect shot, promise to make this the most fun and action-packed Cabela’s game yet.
The Top Shot peripheral for Wii adds a new level of realism in heart-pounding hunting adventures – just take a few seconds to load the Wii Remote™ and Nunchuk™ and you’re ready to put the trophy buck of a lifetime in your crosshairs. In addition, the Wii™ version includes 13 arcade style shooting galleries, including 4–person multiplayer.
“Activision's dedication to the hunting genre is real and the Cabela's crowd has responded, year after year,” Bryan Stave of Cabela's. “It has been inspiring to work with them on Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2010 – we can't wait for September!”

(I played the hell out of this once upon a time, add alcohol and a bunch of drunk friends and it's positively hilarious.)
Yes, I have little faith left in humanity.
And yeah, these screenshots COULDN'T POSSIBLY be from the Wii version, can they? *crosses fingers*
