While I loved the original Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts for reasons similar to the previous game mentioned (open-world, self-exploration-but with dangerous animal attacks) it was the follow-up sequel in the series that stands out to me for adding a comprehensive story into the mix. It was my first hunting game that was more than just “click-explore-shoot” and truly allowed for the player to explore a semi-open world on their own. It took me forever to get all the way through, and while there was some guidance as to what to do, the player had the option as to what subregions they’d visit first, how they’d get there, and what weapon they would use. What I loved the most about this game was just how vast and spacious it seemed. It was also the first game I had played to feature Midwestern states (Michigan and Kentucky), which I felt connected to growing up in Ohio.įor all of my childhood, my video game playing time was limited to a set amount of time on the weekends. The player earned money throughout the game which could be used to buy more tags for game to hunt, equipment, or guns.

Here are just a few of what I would consider the best hunting video games on Sony consoles. These might not be the best critically-hailed hunting games ever, but they are ones which I have found to be my favorites over the years. While it is true that many of the Cabela’s titles have been fairly similar, there is a surprisingly decent amount of diversity in the genre as far as how the games play out. One might think every hunting game is the same, but they aren’t. Nonetheless, these are games that were still enjoyable to me, either for their graphics or their breadth or their accurate depictions (or for some, possibly due to my young age when they were released). Conversely, while many of the old games were not critically well-received, those most recently offered have been highly touted (for the genre). While the selection for current consoles has been fairly scarce, games available for previous generations are plentiful.

While there are plenty of titles to highlight-from the original Cabela’s Big Game Hunter for PC all the way through the popular theHunter: Call of the Wild-I decided to limit the selection to a handful of console games (specifically, PlayStation since that is what I’ve always had) that stood out over the years.
