3.0 out of 5 stars Highly enjoyable game but dated., 6 Oct 2008
By Morris Day (Herts, UK) - See all my reviews
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
G1 Jockey 2008 is highly enjoyable and addictive but fails for a few reasons:

1. The graphics have not improved (dramatically) since the 2003 version on the PS2.
2. The inbetween races scenes in story mode are over long, cliched and date from the ice age - surely a few voice actors and such are not too expensive rather than having to read stuff over and over.
3. The training system could certainly be better.

However, if you want to be a jockey, this is the closest most of us will get and the actual racing is good fun, if you don't ride your horse to its style you won't do well and if you are on a donkey, the good horses will beat you even if you run a great race - the playability is great.

They've attempted to use the sixaxis controller thing, but I got frustrated with trying and soon went back to the normal controls - full marks for effort though and maybe someone else will say it works well - it would improve the addictiveness fully working.

I would recommend this game, but hope that a future release see next-gen graphics rather than what appears to be a PS2 port with minimal effort to upgrade - unfortunetly in a world where graphics is king - G1 Jockey will suffer because of it. However for £17.99 you can't really complain.
7 out of 10.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very good game, 18 April 2009
By Ms. Il Crawford (Brighouse, Yorkshire, UK) - See all my reviews

Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
I had decided to purchase a PS3 and I had played this game on the Wii before, but the graphics, together with the HDMI cable, are much better. Ok, the characters don't speak, but I don't mind that. Training your own horse is ok, although some of the exercises could be a bit easier to do. After falling off at the jumping, I've never had the nerve to enable the falls in the game!

3.0 out of 5 stars OK nothing special, 10 Mar 2009
By Dm Gouveia "groove007" (Jersey) - See all my reviews

Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
purchased this thinking it was more strategy/simulation game but was surprised that you can actually race the horses, it is involved and very diffcult to keep the horse trotting and last place always beckons, I suppose I must try harder!
