a bit cheeky IMO the game is great value at £19.99 as it is I honestly believe Mark has underpriced the game for years

I agree with PJ this game would still be a bargain at £25.

When I go to the purchase page the game is priced at £24.99. I thought it was priced at £19.99?

No the beta version (over a year ago) was that price a cheaper price for virtually being a tester the fullversion price is £24.99 and believe
me that is a bargain

That seems fair although is the game free from the found bugs? I read through on here and read that sometimes a horse will race twice on the same day and another whereby the horse never retires? I don't mind paying the 24.99 I just want to know that what I am paying for will not contain bugs of this nature.

I haven't seen a horse run twice on the same day. I have seen a horse run twice within a week. I have definitely never seen a horse that hasn't retire.

Since the last patch was updated the game has run error free for me. Well worth the money.

There was a screenshot posted on this forum showing two 97 year old horses lol

There was also a post about the same horse racing twice on the same day which a couple of people had also acknowledged this.

Glad to know it's now error free.

Is there any games out there that are 100% bug free?
Personally I don't think there is.
What I think is more important is do the developers give ongoing and continued support?
For SO6 - they do!

What we have to remember is that Starters Orders are a small game/company - there is not 24/7 support but there is support and it is prompt.

If you are looking for 24/7 support and EA/DICE quality then Battlefield 4 is your game or company. (BTW BF4 is a great game)

I can understand why the SO people keep the price constant - I guess the budget and profit is small and dropping the price really does effect the bottom line.
The Horse Racing genre is a small market and personally I think the SO people have made an amazing game.
But the perfect game I think is a Utopia or Holy Grail - no matter the budget. (Resisting hard not to quote Monty Python!)

At least it is just minor.
It wouldn't be good if it was dominating.
In fact it hasn't won a Group race at all.
I don't see this as a problem - just a novelty :)

Buy or Dont buy its up to yourself buddy but sounds like you looking at 1 poor excuse not to buy

All i can tell you i dont know how many enjoyable hours this game has given me

Believe it or not not everything in life is 100% perfect. If you love racing not buying it will be your loss
its all class anyway good luck with what ever you decide to do.

I will be buying the game now that a few of you have said it's been error free since the last update. However it is a bit worrying when that 79yo horse was the only Australian jumper within the game. That problem I assume has been fixed?
