Activision is bringing us more animal murdering fun times with Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2011. The new game will actually present a story and, well, I'll let the press release give you a taste of it:
Delve into a Dangerous Story – The world’s deadliest predators stalk the wilderness yet this safari gone wrong represents a chance for redemption - and perhaps revenge - as dark mysteries and family secrets are revealed under the pale light of the African moon.
Yeah. The story is written by Brad Santos whose previous works include Resistance: Fall of Man, Tomb Raider: Legacy and The Saboteur. Weird, I know.
Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2011 will also be packed with the brand new Top Shot Elite light gun for the PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360. A sensor bar and high-sensitivity camera will be included for the 360 and PS3 versions while the Wii one will act as a shell for the Wiimote and Nunchuk like all the other light gun based games. All the guns will also have pump-action reloading, adjustable stock and a scope with a red lens filter that let's you see hidden animal tracks and blood trails.
Finally, look at the box art for this game. It's f*cking ridiculous!
Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2011 will be out on October 26, 2010 for the PS3, 360, Wii and DS.

those bears, always up in my campfire
You'll quickly find that the Cabela logo has a non jaggy white stroke.
That sounds weird.

Morally questionable game is morally questionable. A story isn't going to change that.
Great job, Activition. You unlocked the "Most fucked up game ever"
achievement.
Nintendo censored some thousand years ago Wolfensetin 3d for SNES...but this is okay ofc...
Also, this game sounds absolutely obnoxious. The whole series has been a joke, but this one sounds a bit... tantalizing. Which is weird, because I'm a vegetarian. I think I've lost touch with my ethics on this one.
I'm one of the vegetarian animal loving pussies here and I couldn't give a flying fuck.
1) It's a game.
2) Bears are the #1 threat to America. And you don't hate America, do you? Oh wait you're German. I'm assuming that's a yes.
Naw, but on the for real? Hunting just isn't one of those things I can muster a crap about. I think dead animals are gross. I'm not a vegetarian out of moral. I just think it's nasty.
i boycott RDR (for shooting on native americans too)
@Xzyliac
I am German.
No I am not hating America. Why I should hate America? wtf you thinking?
@Andycadaver
yes I am sorry.
And all pseudo Intellectuals who say that they are vegs, but have no problems with a game like this should stop smart assing around and eat a fucking burger. this would make no difference.
Okay, i was too much offended. Thats right, but thats my opinion and someone saying I am new to the Internets? Sorry, that was/is my opinion...like saying Pepsi is better than Coke.
Or that someone cant support MOH because you can play Al-qaida or not boycotting Vaz because you can rape Woman.
This game looks like it might not suck. Maybe. Hunting isn't really my thing though, unless you can sneak kill enemies with your trusty knife for up close action. I don't like the whole "Sitting back, picking off enemies" style of play that would probably come of hunting.
Only this hunting game looks more like Time Crisis with Bears.
So yeah, no idea of what to think until a video comes out.
KrazyKraut, Stop forcing your opinion on others. Most people don't give a flying *** (What is this term supposed to mean?) about hunting, but we respect your opinion. Don't just attack people because they don't care if we're killing animals. Sure, you may think that killing people in brutal and terrible ways is perfectly fine in both real life and in the video game world, and that is your opinion and we respect that, but most people care more about people than we do about inanimate representations of animals or real animals.
But yeah I guess you would have done a better box art, were you the designer, right?
sry my feelings went amok and I already said (and apologize now) that I was too offended.
I though drugs and terrorists were the number 1 threat to America. I don't see many bears flying planes into buildings.
I'm not trolling by the way, I just don't think bears are a threat to anyone with any sense and they certainly don't need killing for being a force of nature.
Also, why so serious?
/brofist
At first, I thought the bear was jumping out of an explosion. Damn, that would have been even more awesome. Didn't one of these games have a mode like Horde, with animals attacking you in waves?
