Ok, first things first, I'm a huge animal lover (have a bunch of cats), I hate REAL hunting but this is a video game, so I don't care at all about killing a virtual deer. Just like I don't care about killing a cop in GTA, but pretty sure I would never do that myself in real life nor would I like it if any one else does. Big Buck Hunter Arcade is not real life.
The game itself is good. I have all the possible home editions of this series. It doesn't stray to far away from them. If like the others, you'll like this.
I only have one minor complaint: Loading take a lot longer than it should (gameplay AND menus)
Note:
Raw input is not supported. So not only can I not use my aimtrak gun during gameplay (fine in menus), I cannot do two players with guns. Not sure of the api exactly, but it's obvious it was designed for xbox pads to give them greater control at the sacrifice of accomodating us gun users. (you can use mouse fine).
I also have no idea how to play with two players - i had a keyboard, mouse, Xbone pad and aimtrak gun connected and all just controlled player 1. Probably need another xbone pad...I'm hopeful they'll patch this thing up and address a few of the issues I highlighted.
Regardless, it's still a good, simple pick and play shooter. Plus it's cheap, just buy it!

Not bad. Not bad at all. Just like the arcade version only without the cool gun to go with it.

Great game! Seems to be very similar to the Arcade Cabinet games. Unfortunately there are no Cabs in Austria :-( so i have to choose the best compromise. I played it with mouse, but i am looking forward to buy 2 lightguns to play the game with these.
There are a few thing i hope it gets improved.
- Loading time seems much longer than it should be!
- Would be great for lightguns if its possible to hide the rifle (& the thread cross)
- It seems there are too few girls :-)
- Would be great if its possible to skip the conclusions on the end of each scene
Hope the game getting an update!

Works Well on windows 7 64 bit with amd 6 core I Love Cat and and dogs and horses, and I love animals. but this is fun to play. And its a arcade perfect port. You cant go wrong. Recomand using a steam controller for its motion controlls. they need to make more of these. and they need to make a linux port too.

Loads of fun, and a great/seamless port to PC! But here's how I feel the game could be better:
Note: Don't take this game seriously, and get it on sale. It's a game that you're supposed to play with friends only after a few beers have convinced you that it's a good idea to throw a few quarters into the machine.
1) This game NEEDS a workshop! As creative as the workshop community is, I know there would be some incredibly fun/hilarious community-made additions for this game.
2) Considering that most, if not all, of us don't have the plastic shotgun for this game, the devs could have added options for weapon selection. I don't know about y'all, but my weapon of choice would be a 30.06 or a .338 Lapua, not .10/.12 guage slugs from a shotgun. And what if we want to hunt during bow season? A compound bow would be nice... hell, I'd settle for a recurve bow.
3) The trail guides DESERVE more screen time! Alex is former Miss Wisconsin USA, dammit! And since they are the trail guides, why don't we hear their voices as the announcers? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me...
Also, I'm not sure why people are having issues with load times... the initial load time when setting up the game took a while. It takes several seconds to load an adventure, but once that's loaded, I can play the different sites within the adventure with almost no loading at all (my experience).

THIS GAME NEEDS TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH THE LIGHTGUN CONTROLLER

A really great game for people that just want to shoot things without the danger or kills. Gameplay is easy to figure out, but perfection takes some work I feature. Replayability is at a maximum with this one. Pick it up cheap and don't forget the DLC.
