You just schedule what ever each week and they go about what ever they do, you will see increases or decreases in rating of your horse after training and races. I dont like that you dont get to see your horses training etc. You develop your own stable from buildings to staff. You can have up to 20 boxes to have your horses or rent out spaces. I also like the fact that HRM has online and LAN play, though there is never anyone really in the gamespy arcade rooms to play, and I cant seem to connect to anyone when they are, I could be using a differnt version of the game. I do run dual ATI Radeon x1800 512mb video cards, it smooths out almost all jagged lines in any video game. I turn mine up all the way and crank my video cards up max and it is smooth looking, but you can tell outdated game graphics. Graphically not stunning, not horible either. The track names and what they race there are off, but there is no licensing for tracks so you have to accept that. I dont like that there is no game pad control only keyboard and mouse. I will say that I played the heck out of the game and still do. Saying that does not say much but since there really is not alot of action racing games for the PC it is hard to really make a fair judgement. Not the best game, not the worst game might be the best on the PC all in all. Now since no one really answered on how the original Horse Racing Manager was I will throw my 2 cents in. The website for the game has gone live and they have posted a few screen shots. Well the same company is in the works for Horse Racing Manager 2 or HRM2. This post was originaly started by cj asking about the Horse Racing Manager game. There was also another game I wanted to touch base on. Dont recall which ones off hand though.Īnyway here is a link to the website incase anyone wants to check it out more and wants to download the demo. Heck I bet on the Australian races from time to time, so I know a few of the courses and they have a few foreign courses. I think all in all I will probably purchase this game. I will say that I think the graphics are pretty decent, went into the options right away and turned everything up and played it in 1920x1080 resolution, it played really smooth for my system. Though every horse I did chose in the demo seemed to always pull to the right.īeing that it is only a demo and of only one race, hard to make a final judgment on it. Game pads work with the demo, I used my logitech cordless rumble pack 2 paddles and worked fine. The betting is not typical US style, but close. It will permit you to do one race as a jockey and one race as a bettor. There is also a playable demo 131mb zip file in size. They now have a release date of Oct 26 on their website. I had mentioned on another thread about a game soon to be released called Melbourne Cup Challenge. Thought I would throw out a couple of new Horse Racing video game developments.
