2 out of 5 stars Dont Buy   August 28, 2008
Hunting unlimited? More like Hunting Limited.
I am assuming they give that title to the game, because you have a good selection on weapons, animals to hunt, and area's to hunt in, but that is all this game has going for it.

Cons:
Animals just run in circles waiting to be shot.
Animals will sometimes just continue to eat grass once shot.
The ATV is poorly constructed, and easily flippable, bottoms out on tiny hills.
The horse gets glitchy when looking at it sideways while running, and trips every now and then.
If your character goes into deep water, you die. Whats that about?
The person who wrote the text for the game, didnt have english as a first language, there are common grammatical and spelling errors. How does that happen?
As stated in another review, the first tracking mission will strain your eyes, give you a headache, and make you want to break the CD in half.
Animals can run through trees 5 feet thick, but you cant, so they give you a false sense of cover until a lion goes right through it and kills you.
The maps have invisible borders, places the animals can go but you cant, this gets frustrating when tracking, or wanting to go to the top of a hill for a better view.
They have this music to try and get your heart rate up when a predator is near, this music gets very old after a while, annoying even.

Value soft - what a lame name, and they still couldnt live up to the small expectation of "value".



4 out of 5 stars Fun Game   August 10, 2008
I'm an 18 year old girl, and even I have had fun with this game! Also, if you buy the CD, once you put it on your computer, you don't need to used the CD anymore- so I was able to "give" it to my boyfriend too. The graphics were nice, and it could just be my computer, but sometimes there would be lines across the screen and the animals/scenery would change to different colors and get very pixel-ish. Usually restarting the game fixed it. But it's way more fun than Deer Hunter with the variety of quarry.


4 out of 5 stars Hunting this way is easy   July 22, 2008
This is a game I am glad to have in my collection, its full of hours of fun. From Loads of Guns, to lots of tech, realistic looking animals, and a free hunt mode I know I can try many different posiblites. I liked this game a lot, as you can tell.

Only negitives I had was the few animals you got to deal with, the log it keeps based on my performance, and looking closer it is like Hunting Unlimited 4 but with new HUD display.

All in all I give it a 8.0 out of ten, its awesome, but not the next best hunting game that tops the shelf hunting game.



5 out of 5 stars Hunting Unlimited 2008 has exterior ballistics!   February 1, 2008
 2 out of 2 found this review helpful

A great game with some of the most realistic firearm performance seen in a game to date!

After playing the 1 hour demo, I bought the game purely for the ballistics, not half expecting things like cover scent an animal calls to be useful, but I was pleasantly surprised! A great bargain of a game!

Unfortunately, there are several features missing that I would have expected for a game of this caliber.

1. You can't keep your scope up while the bullet travels down range - the weapon bolt is cycled automatically, causing you to lose sight where your bullet impacted. This annoying feature can be circumvented by enabling "bullet camera" or using an simply auto-loading rifle.

2. There are no ballistic mil-dot or ballistic-plex scopes featured in the game. Compensating for distances over your zero without a mil-dot of some sort is guessing.

Even with the short-comings, I still have to give this game a 5/5 simply because it breaks boundaries that no other game does.



1 out of 5 stars Hunter Unlimited 2008 "past tense"   January 30, 2008
 3 out of 5 found this review helpful

I've been a loyal fan of ValuSoft's previous Hunting Unlimited series, providing hours of enjoyment, superb graphics, and beautiful scenery. When I saw the release of Hunting Unlimited 2008, I was excited about the company's newest creation. WHAT A LETDOWN! This production is almost entirely repackaging of the previous games in the series. If you've had the first three in the series there is absolutely no need to waste you money on this clone.
Very disappointed in ValuSoft.
