Wednesday is horse game day and today we will look at games for Playstation 2. If you use another system, be sure to check out games for the wii, Nintendo DS & PC games.
Although there aren’t as many options as some of the other platforms, there are still quite a few horse games for the Playstation 2, each one providing its own brand of entertainment. The list below provides a link to where they can be found on Amazon and a brief description.
From Barbie adventures, to unicorn quests to fast-paced Thoroughbred racing, this list may have the widest variety of them all.

This is a good list of games. However these seem like games for children. I will ask my little sister to read this post and play these games. I play games like http://www.horseracegame.com/ which involve a little bit of gambling but not with real money. I can also breed and train horses in the horse game.
I am 43, have purchased, played and become addicted to the Petz: Horsez and Horsez 2 playstation games. Can’t get enough, hoping Ubisoft will come out with even more versions. It’s not just for kids, very realistic simulations, almost like being in the saddle yourself.
Ive played most of these games theyre all good I didnt know there was a ps2 version of Silver Buckle stables but I love the Gallop Racer games for ps2
i dont know why it shows that unicorn game its for boys right
I got Equestrian Challenge for my birthday and I love it! (even though I’m not the best at it) I prefer to watch my sibling play it, since he is the computer wiz of the family. :p
Is it really good cause I also want it ?
Is it even safe to buy on this website ?
Hi can anybody tell me how good the gallop racer 2004 and 2006 are oh! And the riding star. ShowJumpingFreak P.S respond ASAP
All of the gallop Racer games I have played (’03, ’04, and ’06) are fabulous. I guess ’04 is my favorite, because you can have an unlimited amount of “my horses”(which means you choose race, have first call to ride, can retire whenever after it peaks(can choose whether you want to rretire to the stud famr) (or atleast I haven’t found a cap and have had up to 40), you can breed up to 8 foals a year, buy around 10 yearlings every year, and ride horses that aren’t “my horses” yet.
Equestrian Challenge is awsome I have played it before but i have misplaced it and mised the trill of compeeting in a 3D virtual world
Hi Katie.
Mom sent a gift coupon for Amazon, and Im looking at Horse racing video games. I liked your review the best and am going to get Equestrian Challenge based on that. Thanks!
I can be reached at oysterdream@aol.com because Ill probably never visit this website again.
I appreciate it, Katie. Brian.
Is the Prysm one good? i might try it.
Can anyone let me know if they will come out with some of these horse games for the PS3 or will I have to get a PS2 in order to enjoy them with my girls?
