 Good game November 30, 2008
One of the things I was very impressed with when I bought this game was by the graphics. My computer isn't very high-tech, but this game worked near-perfectly on it.
As far as the game itself goes, there isn't a storyline, and also, you don't get to take care of your horse very much(save for some 'grooming'). Also, all you get to do is showjumping, no other disciplines, which would've made this game better.
You can chose to compete in showjumping events, and the more you win, the higher your ranking and the more difficult the courses. I enjoyed the variety of the courses a lot, and you can also play bonus matches, where you collect pink stars that give you a time bonus. Eventually, you get to Elite level and compete in the Skyline Finals. I only managed to get silver, so I don't know what happens if you get gold.
You get to customize the color of your horse's coat, mane and tail, and there was no shortage of options. You also get to chose your rider out of(I think) six riders. However, the more games you play and win, the more clothes/saddles/boots/jackets etc, you unlock.
Also in this game were fun minigames, such as Memory Lane, where you memorise a sequence of objects. There were also riding workshops, and a free ride where you could freely roam around and jump huge fences. You can also unlock items from these workshops and minigames.
I would definetly reccommend this game, although if you want to learn about, and take care of your horse this isn't the game for you. Overall this game is very good.
Awsome Horse Game November 16, 2008
B. Maher (MA)
My Horse and Me is an awesome game for any horse lover.
You can choose your own person(you can even be a boy),
pick your own outfit, and pick your own horse! You can
free ride, show jump,and you can ride to earn points!
If you earn enough points you can un lock new clothes,
saddles, boots, and hats! My Horse and Me is a great
program for kids. You can get it for Wii, Nintendo
DS, and windows! It is a very fun program.
 Was An Ok Game September 27, 2008
Sammy (novi, mi United States)
The game was ok overall, but the game was very easy to beat. I found myself done with the game in under two days. The games loaded very slowly on my computer and some of the mini games were dumb and boring. The graphics were good overall but the game was definatly not realistic. The horses were almost a cartoon. The game was fun but not for my age group buy it if your getting it for a younger child.
Fun to play, but a bit childish. September 13, 2008

This game was really fun to play and has great graphics and lots of un-lockable content. The place that this game falls short in however is that it was defiantly made for a younger audience. The mini games are okay but give a feel like you are playing a child's game.
But even with the problem of it be targeted for a younger audience, this game was defiantly worth buying and has many levels for advancement for longer play time. Great Game.
Game only works so far and then quits June 16, 2008

The game only plays so far and then it shows a message and quits on certain shows. I have email ATARI three times and they keep losing my email or the ticket. I bought this game 6 months ago and I am still trying to get a fix from Atari and sent them the diagnostics three times now and never get a response. A company that doesn't seem to care about it's consumers and I even went on their web site for help and others were just as frustrated as me. The game is fun when it plays but the company doesn't give any tech support. I will never buy another Atari games.
