Backlog Quest is a month long special event on Clearance Bin Review featuring daily game reviews of the games that have sat on the shelf for simply too long; old and new.
From Day 1 – Cabela’s Dangerous Hunts 2011, Tristan Rendo writes "I had seen them in stores quite a bit, and there is no shortage of them, so I had wondered for quite some time just what these Cabela’s games had to offer.

Joystiq writes: It's rare that we feel the need to warn our readers about their safety when writing up product announcements, but in the case of Activision's announcement this afternoon of a Kinect-enabled Cabela's game, we thought it might be necessary. Cabela's Hunting Party will launch this coming quarter (sometime before the end of September) alongside less potentially life-threatening titles like X-Men Destiny and the just announced Call of Duty: Black Ops "Rezurrection" DLC.
