Due to the nature of the sports on which they are based, sports simulations are often intended to be played by multiple players competing against one another, though many single-player sports simulations also exist in which the player competes against computer-controlled opponents or the clock.īecause the field of sports simulation is so diverse, only a brief sketch of the genre’s history is offered here.
These include team sports such as baseball, basketball, and football, as well as a wide variety of other sports such as tennis, track and field, hunting, racing, bowling, rowing, and many more.

This drastic course of action is down to the fact that we weren't sent a review copy, probably due to the inevitability of us strongly advising that you steer clear of it.
Which is nice.Īs you may by now have guessed, this is the boxed copy we are reviewing. As the warning on the box states, Deer Hunter rewards injuring non-threatening creatures. The word game' is used in its loosest sense, as according to the box it is actually an interactive hunting experience,' one of a worryingly expanding series centering around perpetrating acts of violence against a variety of dumb beasts. This was the USA's top-selling game for several weeks, a fact that says a lot more about the state of the American national psyche than it does about the quality of the game.
