KOEI & Techmo's new horse racing game

joeydb · #1 11-08-2011, 07:30 AM

Gallop Racer 2006 had betting in it as well. Does anybody know if this one will also? I don't see it in the features list, and "gambing" games usually have a "T" rating for Teen instead of "E" for everyone.

BTW - answering another question - there was no PS3 specific gallop racer for the U.S., but if you had one of the original PS2 backward compatible units, Gallop Racer 2006 did work and quite well. Even had a statistical breeding model.

what was that game that you could actually ride a horse. Ive broken four machines in four countries (here, Canada, Japan, and the Philippines. I used my racing form as a whip, I looked stupid but I sure did have fun.

It was Gallop Racer!..heh heh. I always won the Mile races with a front runner. The Distance race could poop anyone out, id pretend I was Pat Day and save all my horse til the stretch.

Game Stop in Clearwater said no dice - it isn't supposed to ship until tomorrow and I had to pluck down 5 beans in advance just to get them to ship one to the store...Should have it by Friday

For PS3?

Interested to hear your review.

If y'all were to mod your consoles, you'd be able to download and play any games, even those not for the U.S. market.

Just sayin.

Yup - PS3... Pretty good videos on Youtube - looks like the G1 Jockey engine with the obvious graphic and playability improvements - looks like they have included Belmont and Churchill (called Hempstead and Louisville)

I ordered online for PS3. None of the local Gamestop stores have it.

It's supposed to work with the normal controller.

This game actually looks pretty good so long as I dont have to use the stupid motion control stuff and can play with a normal ps3 controller.

Gamestop at the mall had no idea about any horse racing game (even coming out). But then again, they were too occupied with the hoardes of people coming in today to get Call Of Duty.

That was the same thing I saw at a Gamestop in Pennsylvania. It was all about Call of Duty.
