Pick a horse, train and manage it and win the races to bring home the prize! Feel the wind in your face and the burn in your legs as your heart begins to pound and beads of sweat roll down your face. It's just you and your horse as you go faster and faster . . . gaining enough speed to take you to the top! You're amongst a stampede of jockeys all racing towards one ultimate goal. Yet, there's only room for one winner. Will it be you? Review: Great graphics, fun game. - I had a lot of fun playing this game. The graphics are a lot better than most other horse games I've played and the makers of the game did a good job. It's mostly about breeding a better horse but I really liked the fact that every horse has a different running style and the horses gain more speed etc when you ride them really good. The game gets kind of boring after you win the Dream Cup and Dream Series special races and unlock everything though but it takes a while to get there and there's still breeding for the elusive white horse. Racing over and over again can also get kind of boring and so does the fact that you can only race one horse at a time so I gave it a 4 for fun. The game itself though is definitely 5 stars. It gives you everything but training (in a way). You can breed your horses (you can own up to 100), race them, bet and you have a free mode you can customize horses in. Review: A great buy... - This game is really great overall. --SPOILER AHEAD-- I really like the breed barn/foal feature in this game. In Gallop Racer 2003 you had to first race a horse until the end of it's viable career, retire it, then breed it with another horse you raced until the end of it's viable career, wait for the foal to be born, wait for the foal to become old enough to train, train the foal as successfully as you can, then if the foal turned out somewhat decent you can actually race it and possibly win some races. However, in Gallop Racer 2006 you are given a bit more freedom and the ratings are more generous when it comes to the foals. Now when you go to the breeding barn, you pick out both parents from a list of horses that you have probably raced before (if you played previous versions of Gallop Racer), their ratings are the same or nearly the same as before, and once you breed them the foal is immediately available for use. The foal is already trained to the best of it's ability and all you need to do is be able to afford it. It is (to me) way easier than the 2003 version of the game--however that can be a drawback to those who enjoyed that challenge to the 2003 version. Now, the downside to this game (or at least, what I see as a downside) is that you can only own/race one horse at a time. Technically you have around 100 slots for foals you have bred in your breeding barn. When it comes to owning and racing one though, you can only have one at a time and you can't retire the horse until you have reached it's minimum potential (so if you want to try a horse out for just a race to see if you would like it, save on separate files so you can reload elsewhere). When playing this game I miss the 2003 version where you can race more than one horse in your stable. So, there is both my most positive and most negative points of view regarding this specific game. Overall, this is a really great game and fans of the Gallop Racer games may like this specific game quite a lot since it does have subtle reminders of the very first Gallop Racer game. ## Features - Interactive racing action - Manage your mount to keep a good position while you save your energy for the finish line - Customize your horse - Each horse has unique abilities and distinctive traits - Learn about breeding and racing horses through a series of fun and exciting training classes. - All-new betting system has been added to Season Mode - TV-style presentation ahead of the race introduced each of the jockeys and their mounts ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000F1YHS0 | | Best Sellers Rank | #58,157 in Video Games ( See Top 100 in Video Games ) #1,949 in PlayStation 2 Games | | Compatible Video Game Console Models | Sony PlayStation 2 | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (56) | | Date First Available | April 18, 2006 | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00018946010465 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | Yes | | Item Weight | 4.6 ounces | | Item model number | 018946010465 | | Manufacturer | Tecmo Koei | | Product Dimensions | 0.5 x 6.61 x 5.31 inches; 4.59 ounces | | Rated | Everyone | | Release date | May 2, 2006 | | Type of item | Video Game | | UPC | 018946010465 | ## Images ![Tecmo Koei Gallop Racer 2006 - PlayStation 2 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61Qpjc6-adL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great graphics, fun game. *by H***. on 2 December 2009* I had a lot of fun playing this game.
