I know the maker of this game and he let me try a version of it and it kicks! I highly recommend this game to anyone who has liked any of the other Deer Hunter games!

I picked up my copy of DH5 at the store the other week and have been playing it everyday since. Well, everyday since I updated my video card, that is. Apparently, the game has several glitches in it, one of which is that it isn't working with certain types of video cards, such as Voodoo 3 and earlier, and some Intel cards. The game also contains numerous other glitches, but nothing that really takes away from the game.

As for the game, it is basically an updated version of DH4, with new maps and animals (bear, elk, mountain lion) and nicer graphics. It also has a season mode where you can manage deer, watching them grow season to season. Also included in the game are the rarities from DH4, like Albino, Unicorn, and Demon deer! Gone from the game are the World Record bucks, which have been replaced with the easier to find SSTS (Sunstorm Trophy Scoring) Trophies.

All in all, it's a great game and I do recommend it, despite it's glitches. However, Sunstorm is suppose to be releasing a patch anytime now to help solve the glitch problems and once they do, I expect this game to be one of the best Deer Hunting sims on the market, if not THE best!

Great Game

I BOUGHT THE DH5 THE OTHER DAY AND INSTALLED IT AND COULD NOT GET THE HAND CURSOR TO WORK. IT WOULD HARDLY MOVE. I HAVE A GREAT COMPUTER SO IT SHOULD HAVE WORKED. IF I AM GOING TO BUY A GAME I DON'T WANT GLINCHES IN IT. WILL BUY ANOTHER ONE AND SEE HOW THAT ONE WORKS MAYBE THE FIRST ONE WAS JUST A BAD SOFTWARE.

It will not run on the Dell computers. It would not run after loading and it just freezes up or goes back to the front page of my computer.I have a 400 dimension XPS R400. My brother in law bought the deer hunter 5 also and it would not run on his 450 machine and he tried it on his 933mhz machine and it would not run on that one either and that is a new machine. I have not been able to run the game yet. Never had any problems with the other deer hunter games.

DOSE NOT WORK ON DELL COMPUTERS

This Game brings hunting on the computer to a new level. I am amazed by the amount of different looking deer and all the new graphics. I have DH3 and I thought that was great! Now Wizard Works hit the mark again with DH5. I will buy new versions as they come out. If you are a hunter, or just like to shoot mass quanities of deer, then this game is for you. Thanks Wizard Works! Kepp it coming.

This is one of the best games out there, and once you get it loaded and get the download off the internet your ready to go hunting. The graphics are very good and it is one best realistic deer hunting games. It really isn't like the real thing,but oh well go have fun.

The Game Is GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The game is awewsome. You can shoot all sorts of different racked deer. Even ALBINOS AND UNICORNS.I even shot a deer that had 37 points on one side and 2 on the other. If U own any other Deer Hunter games you know they dont do that!!!!!!!!!

Frustrated
