Bass Pro Shops: Trophy Hunter 2007 for Xbox Reviews by Gamers

This game is so bad it makes every single hunting game out there look like a perfect 10. It is buggy, incomplete, and no fun to play for multiple reasons.

1. First off let me tell you that the developers decided to not allow the player to invert their aim. A good deal of hunting games take place looking down the barrel of a gun, and if you're used to inverted aim this thing is horrible to play. This is just the developers being lazy and inconsiderate.

2. The controls are very buggy. You will find that simple things like entering vehicles, and changing weapons works randomly at best. The controls are extremely unresponsive most of the time.

3. The game features characters with aiming statistics so if your aiming stats are not high then your shots are inaccurate. Many games do this, but this game takes it to the extreme and makes your shots way off target even with a moderate aiming skill. It's hard enough to even find an animal in the game to shoot at.

4. Character and vehicle movement is odd. The sensitivity is high for strafing, but not for aiming and it's not adjustable.

5. Deep water is frequent in the game, and you can't determine deep water from shallow water. Your hunter dies if he comes in contact with the water for a few seconds so it's easy to die.

6. You find animals by running around mashing the Y button. Based on your stats you may or may not get a message saying an animal was there so many minutes ago. It is quite hard to find animals on the medium or higher difficulty levels. Now I know they were trying to make it realistic, but I don't want to wait hours in a video game to shoot at something. Hunting video games are meant for a quick fix.

In conclusion I want to say that every single hunting game I have ever played has been more fun than this. Go rent Cabela's Deer Hunter or Big Game Hunter if you want a decent hunting game.
