I am definitely not in great shape right now, but you use muscles that you generally don't use all the time with this damn thing, definitely getting one, it is awesome

I am going to order a copy of G1 Jockey. Looks pretty cool, and the only chance in hell that I will ever be able to ride a race...

Some of the reviews say that it is too difficult because they have apparently put some thought and reality into the game, making some of the horses front-runner, some closers, etc., most of which horseplayers probably prefer. The reviews basically seem to say that it isn't like a basic race car game, where you just grab the remote and start playing, but instead have to think like a jockey/trainer and learn the game a bit.

I still need to order a copy...

I actually got that game for playstation 2, years ago. It's a pretty cool game. There are trainers that you ride for and each horse has a different running style. Supposedly there are spills (but I have never seen any). There are also inquiries and a quasi eclipse awards ceremony at the end of each year. I used play the game all the time with the regualr control. Maybe I will break it out tonight for old times.
