 Overall, one of the better "Let's Ride" games. November 24, 2006

Let's Ride: Silver Buckle Stables is one of the better of the "Let's Ride" series of horse-related games.
Although it might say there are "20 different breeds," there is no difference in the size, shape, or conformation of any of the horses. It is more like 20 different colors. A good thing is that you can mix and match coat colors, mane colors, blankets, saddles, bridles, and even eye color. You unlock more coat colors as you move up in the classes.
The competition's are fairly easy to beat, but they do go up in difficulty as you move up in classes. The mini-games are also around the farm, but are basically the same as the competition games made to go around natural obstacles.
Finally, I do like the "quick play" of this game compared to most. You still have to bathe and brush your horse, but it is fairly quick, and feeding and watering isn't too bad either. Although you don't do some main things, such as pick hooves, muck stalls, etc, it does help in the aspect of being able to go back to the competitions quicker instead of doing everything around the barn for 5 minutes until you can ride again like some horse-related games make you do.
Overall, good game.

I received the game today and it was a little frustrating installing the game onto my computer because I have Windows Vista. If you are having the same problem with the wizard being interrupted like I did, you have to Custom install it and make sure you don't install the DirectX9 component. After I figured that out, the game installed and loaded like it was suppose to. The game works great on Vista, graphics are fabulous and much better than I expected. I like that you can ride around the farm without the game blocking you from different areas. You can ride the horse to the practice arena and back again, take off to other places if you want to.
I'm still practicing with the movements and with the different formations you can ride - but the directions are pretty straight forward. I really liked the tutorials in the beginning of the game to get acquainted with the game. Some games don't do that and you end up hunting down the tutorials if you have problems. This game is very easy and a joy to play. I only have it a few hours and I can tell it's going to be addicting.
Now that I had a pleasant experience with this game, I'll probably buy some of the others in the collection.

I don't have this game but I do Have a pretty good idea of it. My favorite part of this game is probibly is when you get to choose the color of their mane, tail, and their coat because there are hundreds of differant combanations. I am wishing that I will get it.
