 Re: Partner Not A Fan
Remember having the first game too, changed a lot since then but it sure was great back then too. I remember winning the Dubai World Cup when i was in debt and receiving all of that prize money.

atiggerx33 wrote: I am indeed a girl... wait, there are no other girls in the forums, at least that are known? I have always loved horses, I got a pony for my first birthday, and a quarter horse for my 10th. At this point I unfortunately have a bad back and can't ride anymore (my QH loved to jump, and was a push button, I could neck rein him over them), I most likely injured myself falling off one too many times. This game was something that when I found it I loved it. I used to own one of the really old versions of it when I was younger, maybe SO1 or 2. I don't think you could pick a country back then. Almost positive it was the original, I can't find what year they came out so it's difficult for me to figure out. I had no idea what I was doing, and any good horses I had were by chance, I was really young.
Horses are in my blood, my great uncle was a bookie (We actually have an original photo of Twentygrand racing at Belmont after his injury, he wasn't a #1 horse but he almost won a triple crown and is in the US Racing Hall of Fame). My mother was an exercise rider for a time for quarter horses when she was younger. I grew up hearing not about baseball or American football stars, I grew up hearing about Secretariat, Seattle Slew, Ruffian, Shergar (loved the movie), and Seabiscuit. Good luck getting your girlfriend into the game guys, for me it was just natural. I think I just found my dream girl  Seriously though great story and great to have a girl here with us - I wish my family were in the racing game.

I also own a PS4, enjoy most video games (Infamous, Watchdogs, GTA, Hitman, and Assassin's Creed to name a few), watch anime (Code Geass, FMA: Brotherhood, Death Note, plus too many to name), and absolutely adore Game of Thrones (books more than show, but I still love the show, the books I've read all about 10 times over). Now I either sound like best friend material; or your an Xbox fan, hate anime, and think GoT is dumb. wow not so much my best friend, more like a good influence or mentor to my partner

But you got me on two things: the horse racing and GTA which, together with Red Dead Redemption, are the two best games of all time.

And Code Geass is amazing, one of my top 5... Although I prefer Evangelion as a better mecha. And yes, you are now my best friend hahahah!!! (even tho I'm an xbox fan and have never seen Game of Thrones...)
