Deer Drive
(Nintendo Wii)
Deer Drive is basically a deer shooting game for Wii. It’s not a
hunting game as some people may initially think upon hearing about this
game. Players will aim to kill any animal that runs in the screen. You
can kill a squirrel, bear or a moose. You can kill everything, except
for does. You need to watch for a bear or moose that head your way
because if they successfully reach you, you’re as good as dead.
During the game, an
annoying voice will react to your every shot. The controls of the game
have terrible responsiveness especially when
reloading or activating “Breath Control,” which bizarrely slows down
the time.
It is frustrating
when you hit the reload button and nothing happens, while a bear is
rushing towards you. You need to tap the A
button constantly to reload until the game notices you and responds.
Another drawback in
this game is the inaccurate shot assessment or false-claims of your
shot. For one example, you saw a deer running
to the left of your screen, then you pull the trigger and you know for
sure that you have hit its neck but the
voice over will say “just a grazed.” Add the annoying voice feedbacks
of your shot and you get yourself one of the
most frustrating moments of your gaming life. Despite all this,
Deer Drive is still a fun game to play, but only if you accept its
shortcomings and learn to play with all the patience that you can get.

Deer Drive is lots of fun. It doesn't pretend to be a simulation. Its
basically see the animal, shoot, rinse and repeat. But its fast, its
challenging, it works well, looks good and it has a cool simultaneous
mode for two people or a party mode for up to four. Its not exactly Big
Buck Hunter, but if you'd like one, you'll like the other. |

I bought this for my husband and we have just spent the past hour and a
half playing it...so much fun and we have only started with the basic
one player beginner mode and the hunting party mode...My husband an
avid hunter enjoyed the game very much and is looking forward to
playing it alot more...although he claims the beginner mode is fairly
simple we found it does get harder as you go up in rounds... |

Deer Drive is a blast (no pun intended). Not only is it about $10
cheaper than most hunting games, but it is the only simultaneous
multiplayer hunting game on the Wii (at least to my knowledge). In
addition to the single player mode and the 2-player simultaneous mode
Deer Drive also features a "Party Mode" where up to 4-players can hunt
down some woodland critters - sounds like fun, but I have yet to play
this mode. |
