If any of you out there have a little girl that you are trying to find a Christmas present for, here is just the thing!
Famous British horsewoman Ellen Whitaker has a new game coming out bearing her moniker. Ellen Whitaker’s Horse Life is currently in development from Deep Silver, the games label of Koch Media, and the French developer Game Life. You can get a playable demo version of the new title which is due to be released on PC, Nintendo DS, and Wii here under downloads.
In the trial version of Ellen Whitaker’s Horse Life, players get to complete various tasks. They are assigned their own horse and need to take good care of it. This includes mucking out the stall, brushing and grooming the animal, and feeding it. They also take it on rides but dont forget that only a happy horse is able to perform at top level. Before taking their horses to the riding arena to practice various disciplines such as dressage and eventing, players can head to the tack store to buy some accessories for themselves and their horses, such as riding boots, helmets, ear nets, or saddlecloths. Once they have trained enough, young riders get to prove their expertise in various competitions.
In Ellen Whitaker’s Horse Life for Nintendo DS, Wii and PC players can select their horse from seven different breeds and can take care of it, train it and take part in various competitions. The horse’s behavior is thereby depicted in a lifelike way in real-time. All competitions such as dressage, show jumping and cross country are shown realistically.
Ellen Whitaker’s Horse Life will be released on the November 28 for Nintendo DS and December 12 for Wii.
Via Press Release
STEPH’S NOTE: If you want to get the full experience of mucking out stalls, cranky equine behavior, colic, laminitis, and a quick kick to the shins–just head on over to my place during foaling season. Or, if you REALLY want an adventure, stop by my family’s racing stables and see how much “fun” it is to handle a real-live racehorse who is a brat from hell.
Where did Ubisoft Reveals PC Specs for Upcoming Prince of Persia comments go?
When two very nasty comments were reported to and subsequently deleted by the site admin, my retort to them unfortunately was not and was thus taken as an assault on comments made by Matt and DarkLord. Then, other people starting in on them, and it just became stupid. Therefore, all comments were deleted the post locked, and the comments turned off.
Normally, we do not report posts on here to the admin, but this person has been a habitual line crosser in the past, and while thankfully we hardly see him anymore, this time it was just too much. I am just sorry I let him get to me so bad and that Matt and DarkLord took it as an affront to them, because that was seriously not the case.
Don’t know about that Stephany, but that philly looks sweet.
Did you guys finally ban Norbit? Good Riddance.
