an Francisco, CA - November 10, in the year of our Lord 2010 - Leading video game publisher, Mastiff LLC today announced today that it has partnered with the Remington®Arms Company, the leading hunting, rifle and shotgun manufacturer in the world to publish the Remington Super Slam Hunting Series, an exciting new gaming franchise that will appear on the Wii™ system from Nintendo, PC and iPhone starting the second week of November 2010.

The first title in the series, Remington Super Slam Hunting: North America, ships to retail this week and will have players testing their skills at spotting, stalking and bagging big game such as deer, elk, bears and mountain lions. Players can take on these large prizes by themselves, or join together with a friend to hunt animals through the woodland settings. Once a hunt is over, players can post their scores to an online leaderboard and receive medals and achievement awards, or challenge up to four players in multiplayer matches to take down the largest animal in the wild.
The second game in the series, Remington Super Slam Hunting: Africa, will take players across East, West and South Africa as players hunt down leopards, rhinos, elephants, buffaloes and lions, along with other animals and birds. Players can choose to team up with a friend to track and hunt on safari, earning medals or awards based on their progress. Challenges can also be issued to up to four players in a multiplayer versus round, with top scores getting posted to an online leaderboard. Remington Super Slam Hunting: Africa will be available by Thanksgiving 2010.
