Cabela's African Safari for PlayStation 2 Reviews by Gamers

if you want a good shooting game this is one of them im not into shooting games but cabela makes good shooting games i would recommend this one to people looking to kill a few animals in africa

Let me start by saying I'm not a hunter nor have I even fired a gun (outside of a pellet gun when I was a kid). But if I had listened to most of the other reviewers who rated this game, I never would've given this game a chance. First of all, the graphics are decent and there's a fair sense of openness, but not nearly as much as there should be. It was annoying to get caught up in the bush and it's funny that the river depth wasn't a factor as you could always walk on water. They could have added hippos and crocs to the list and taken out some of the antelope. It was also difficult to locate the red bugs that were supposedly around tracks. Don't know if you could freely access vehicles later in the game but it would been nice. I wasn't crazy about the time limits , but I understand why they did it. Overall I think the game has a lot of potential because it's kind of cool to be a big game hunter (better than being one in real life) to live out that fantasy. Maybe with the power of the PS3 this game will be given the proper upgrade it deserves.
