Here come the angry animal activist mob.

AuburnTiger6435d ago

Peta is going to have a problem with this, lol

icdedppl6436d ago (Edited 6436d ago )

i haven't played any cabela hunting games that i actually liked. HOWEVER, if they were to make this an online hunting/co-op game it would be much more enticing. four hunters at once that could play online and go on the safaris together could rock, haha.

Jakens6436d ago

It would be awesome if there was an online mode that was 3 on 3, animals vs hunters. The players who choose to be animals could have some kind of handicap, so they are not helpless.

I don't believe this game will sell very well, but I kinda want a demo so I can try it. I have never played a hunting game, but I want to try this one if it becomes downloadable.

Boink6436d ago

they need a hunting game where you play as vice president cheney and you shoot your friends in the face.

PS360PCROCKS6436d ago

lol hell yeah that'd be fun, lol good one...um I better watch out for this, or my dad will buy it and play my Xbox and I dont want that, lol, cause I need my time with it

THWIP6436d ago

..."Sony just lets you LOOK at these animals....we let you KILL them." :D

Who needs 'AFRIKA'? ;)

lol wat a joke. Ony an xbox fanboy with no ps3 will fool himself with such delusions of dante's inferno being better than god of war. Dante is basically less cool kratos

TOO PAWNED5383d ago

This is same nonsense as with Prototype vs Infamous. Infamous was/is on different level, but 360 fanboys were overhyping Prototype, the thing is, then and now, in both cases PS3 owners get to play both, and that seems to bother them and then they try to dismiss GOW3 and Infamous as "lesser" games

WildArmed5383d ago

LMFAO. I laughed so had when i read the article headline.
I was like... some1 forgot their math signs..

I believe he wanted to say Dante's Inferno < God Of War 3.

Its ok, not all people are math whizzes lol

Cwalat5383d ago

Seriously? lol, no game out there can top God of war in that Genre!

Sorry, but that's just the way it is. I'd say it's "fate" but Kratos already fu**ked those b**tches up, if you know what i mean. :P

Even though Dante's Inferno looks to be a great game (seeing how everything that makes it good is taken straight from God of war series), i'd say it will never come close to what God of war is. I've yet to find a threesome hidden inside Dante's Inferno somewhere... :P

If you guys ever say that a game can top God of war in it's genre than you better stop calling yourselves gamers.

WildArmed5383d ago

If the author said Prince of persia > GoW3 or DMC > GOW I'd be like yeah sure.

But he was asking for it when he compared it to DI.

not in this dimension or any other

PXSausage5383d ago

I love adding podcast titles like this...it always shows that N4G is nothing but a home for PS3 fanboys. I'm sure this comment will receive plenty of equal hate as well. Gotta love the internet!

Parapraxis5383d ago

So you pick a title based upon the possible knee-jerk reaction?
Way to fail.

So Easy I Can Do It5383d ago

cuz we have the time to listen to a longass podcast. Get to the point.

WildArmed5383d ago

Dont wry there are alot of xbox fanboys n wii fanboys beating around on N4G.
Just bcoz u refuse to acknowledge em, doesnt mean they dont exist -.-

hendersonman5383d ago

How can we tell these are fanboy comments. Because I am a huge GoW fan. And if you listen to the podcast you would understand where the comment comes from. It comes from a guy who played both games at Pax, and he was giving his opinions.

Anytime someone says anything about any PS3 exclusive you guys rally with your torches and pitchforks and attack people for our opinions.

BTW Tomb Raider > Uncharted sorry thats how I feel. But along with GoW, Tomb raider is one of my 3 favs as well
