Melbourne Cup Challenge/Frankie Dettori Racing

Well the anticipated release of Melbourne Cup Challenge/Frankie Dettori Racing is drawing near, and we finally have a decent review of the game..

A Online Racing forum im a member of had its owner get access into the E3 convention last week and spoke with people involved with the game and got a trial...

A very good preview for all Horse Racing fans...

ORL World Preview


On another note, are there any members here who own Starters Orders 2?

A great PC game for the horse racing fans... Basically you are the trainer of a stable of horses, you buy, breed, train and race horses in a bid to become the greatest trainer..

Its a super game and after a few seasons playing i have now joined an online league where i enter my home bred horses in races against other peoples horses from around the world.. I recommend anyone interested in horse racing have a look at this game...

Is this the game made by Mario and co? I am still ****ed off at them for their lacklustre rugby league 2 effort, and then their reaction to the criticism...

SO2 is a great game, easily my favourite racing game of the ones I've played. This one looks pretty good, will probably end up getting it and hopefully won't be disappointed.

I love horse racing games.

Did you, or anyone, play the online betting game they had on the Tooheys website for a couple of years? Me and my mates were addicted.

Yeah it is, and they have been very very secretive about this game, but from all reports from Jim(the Writer, who has played every horse racing game available) it is a very promising game..

I'm on the forums but haven't got any horses good enough to compete online yet. I'll get there.

How good was that one in game arcades, where you would ride the horse and you'd have the whip buttons and whats not. I spent many a dollar on that.
