With Browning African Safari , however, I envisioned a game where the animals fight back. If you miss and the animal lunges at you, chances are you will get mauled. Given that I just finished off Deer Hunter II , I also envisioned the game set in a 3D environment. This would be a game worth playing. Problem is, it just isn't Browning African Safari.
Browning is among the last of the first generation hunting games.
This one is still stuck in the land of the two-dimensional panorama, so the whole concept of being hunted by animals is tossed out the window. You do get to do the complete 360-degrees, but this is small consolation. You are a big game hunter sponsored by a museum to go stock its shelves full of African skins. Once in Africa, you go to a local supply hut and buy the items you need. You will also need a hunting guidebook and binoculars.
