  Best!! May 31, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This was by far one of the best horse games I own!! You get to own 3 horses, one for showjumping, one for cross country, and one for dressage.
Care Features: -Brush -Comb mane and tail -Pick hooves -Feed -Water -Treats
Dressage Figures: -Extended/Collected walk -Extended/Collected Trot -Extended/Collected Canter -Pirouette -Piaffe -Passage
There was one more but I dont remember.
The horses gaits were very realistic, but when you "galloped" it was actually a fast canter. There arent any lead changes, which drives me insane. The graphics tend to be like computer graphics, they can be a little sketchy, but its not horrible. The horse shys away from things way to much, whether it is a jump or just an area you arent aloud to go into. You cant go into the water alot on free rides and when you manage to get into it there is either no visual splashing or no sound. Limited color options.
I do like how this game is setup though. You can choose you tack which you earn by winning competitions. You also can choose polo wraps and mane style. The grooming section of this game is wonderful!! Its very realistic and I love the fact that they made it possible to comb the mane and tail! The scenery is very good. You can go on free rides at dusk and they have rivers, beaches, woods and fields you can ride through. There are also many different view options. You can choose the one right behind the horse, like you were riding the horse, the horses perspective and a bird view. Dressage a Showjumping only offer two views though, right behind the horse and a birds eye view that stays put and follows the horse.
Overall this is the BEST horse game I've ever played! Im hoping they make another one to fix the minor problems! Worth the money!
