Story
In Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010, players step into the camouflaged shoes of Jack Wilde. A young, confident and skilled hunter and outdoorsman, his potential has been recognized by the mysterious "Orion Order," an ultra-exclusive hunting club with international connections. Even though Jack is still green, the powers that be at Orion are willing to give him a shot at joining, but first he must prove himself worthy. Jack jumps at this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. His test is made up of a series of membership trials against big game and small, in various environments and conditions and utilizing a variety of weapons, skills and techniques.

Top Shot Wii Peripheral Included
Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 Wii Bundle brings even more fun to the hunt with its inclusion of the Top Shot Wii peripheral. Made out of rugged but light bright orange plastic, the Top Shot accessory will never be mistaken for a real gun away from the game. But combined with your Wii Remote/Nunchuck controller configuration it allows for easy, rapid-fire and realistic action. And with a sawed off design it can be fired either from the shoulder or extended out like a pistol.

Gameplay
Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 is played from a first-person perspective featuring a combination of mission play and mini-games that make up the already mentioned hunting trials. Players are guided through structured mission play by their in-game sponsor who contacts them, points them in the right direction and offers tips and warnings in the field as the hunt makes its way across the globe. In each hunt players are graded on a variety of skills ranging from safe navigation across dangerous wilderness terrain, animal tracking, and their abilities at stalking from cover and making clean, efficient kills. Players track game and find their way around the environment using "Hunter's Sense," a type of bullet time in which evidence of animals, varied available cover options to shoot from, specific animal locations and their level of alertness can be seen in a temporarily, slowed down view with on-screen color-coated indicators revealing each. More rapid player movement, including sprint functionality, is available in regular view. Once an animal is sighted in the players weapon scope varying possible point totals are visible on the animal according to where it might be hit with a projectile. These include strikes to the heart, spine, lung and head. During hunts players can quickly and easily change weapons at the push of a button as the trophy animal persuaded requires. In-game weapons range from a variety of rifles, pistols, bows and more which can be unlocked as the game progresses. The ability to correctly use all graded skills gains the player points and medals for each animal players are tasked to bag.

In addition to the mission play of big game membership trials, Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 also features arcade style, timed mini-game hunts. These are spread throughout the game and feature a mix of birds and small game. Success in these serves the dual purpose of providing the opportunity of challenging marksmanship practice, without penalization in the main campaign and the chance to build experience points in your overall progression.

Four-person Multiplayer Mini-games
In addition to the campaign mini-game action described above, Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 for Wii comes packed with 13 arcade style shooting galleries. Supporting 4–person multiplayer, they ensure that you will never have to hunt alone.

Just purchased my first WII at the new reduced price. Wanted a new shooter that came with it's own gun peripheral. The Top Shot Wii sawed off shotgun peripheral worked well once I got the right configuration selected from the options. The game controls are very intuitive and the first few levels of the game that I have played through have proven enjoyable enough without being too difficult. The continue is a great help whenever you come to an untimely demise and being pretty much of a pacifist, I find the action fairly comfortably paced. Someone who is pickier about constant action, high intensity and challenge from a first person shooter, probably would find this a bit of a yawner, but as a recreational hunting simulation it definitely satisfies. Of course there is the familiar problem with occasional invisible walls, but from what I've seen in video reviews of other hunting games, it is fairly minimal. The multiplayer is reminiscent of Deer Drive with a lot larger variety of... Read more

This review is from: Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 with Gun Bundle (Video Game)
Bought this game about two weeks ago, and I think it's alot of fun. It has 2 modes of play - one where you go on "missions" seeking out certain animals, sneaking through cover and getting points and medals based on how well you shoot. The second mode of play is a shooting gallery, where the animals just run across the screen and you try to shoot as many of them as you can. Think of the Big Buck Hunter arcade game that they have in some bars. I enjoyed the missions, but I've pretty much already beat the game - didn't take too long. The shooting gallery is fun if you have friends over and just want to shoot alot. The shooting gallery is multi-player, but you're not shooting at the same time - you take turns and it compares the score.

I really like the big orange shotgun and think it works well. Gives you more of a "Big Buck Hunter" arcade game feel. Controls are fairly intuitive. The trigger is actually up on the barrel, and the scope button is where the trigger... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars very fun game to play, but the graphics come up a bit short, October 2, 2009
= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2010 with Gun Bundle (Video Game)
Remember Tigerwoods 2010, the xbox and ps3 version looked amazing in the graphics dept., but the wii version was just so much more fun to play.
same deal here. the xbox demo looks pretty but no light gun. Wii version looks muddy graphic-wise but shooting with the shotgun that comes with the game is a serious blast.
plus the Wii has 13 shooting galleries, in addition to the career mode, were you try to blow away as many animals as possible in a time limit.
As far as any other issues in the game i would only mention that navigating in the main career mode can be a little tricky,
i kept on running into cliff walls, trees, and looking up at the sky, you gotta swing the shotgun every time you want to look around.
all in all, i'm giving this game 3 stars just because the graphics look so horrible compared to the other next gen versions. gameplay is great.
I picked up the Top Shot bundle on sale for $[...], wouldn't really pay more than that for it.
