The fall hunting season is in effect here in Texas. Bow hunters litter the temperate wilderness of the Lone Star State every weekend, and come November the rifle shooters will join them. It’s an exciting time of the year for yours truly, a novice deer hunter. But until the season officially starts there are precious few ways to hold back the buck fever. Can Cabela’s Big Game Hunter 2012 fill the void? It's a long shot, but that's why we have a big scope.

It's that time, meat lovers! Fall season 2011 is here, and buck fever has struck. A sure sign of the hunting season, Cabela's has a quick fix on the shelves for those times in between weekends when you just have to stalk something. Cabela's Big Game Hunter 2012 is available this week, and already three DLC packs are waiting for you to pull the trigger.

Activision's Cabela's brand is launching two games this fall, both of which will support four player co-op in "Shooting Gallery" modes.  These light gun shooter like game modes have players tackling different challenges, targets and even "bosses" together while working for high scores.
