This game is definately going to keep me occupied for the summer, and i don't think ill be buying another game until NHL 11 comes out.
When i normally play games, my wife will grab a book and read, as anything videogame doesn't interest her at all. However, Upon glancing a few times from her book to see what I was playing, she ended up asking for the controller so she could try riding the horse.
The game is brilliant, and imo is the best game to come out in the past handful of years. I mean, any game that can get my wife who is an avid non gamer, playing and enjoying, is doing something REALLY right.
