IGN

The game has a bit of fun underneath its technically defunct outer shell, but only diehards of the hunting genre will want to take the time to find it, and even then, it will likely be too arcade-like for their diehard playing habits.

Games Radar (in-house)

This is a game you should get free when you buy a bright orange hunting hat. It might offer a brief, quick killin' fix for some hunter-gamers, but won't offer much in terms of videogaming satisfaction, delicious meat or hours of fresh air.

Official Xbox Magazine

Though the real world environments aren't ugly, this Cabela's, ptarmigans and all, is simply pterrible. [Jan 2008, p.69]

Xbox360Achievements

For a hunting game this is an abject failure, it’s far too easy and there is absolutely no reliance on stealth or skill.

Eli G. gave it a2:
I've played flash games of higher quality then this hideous excuse for a game. Real life hunters would likely be quite offended if they were they to see it in action.
