    Red Dead Redemption had the best horses.

    They can fly!

    And build machines that can fly!

    Re: "but horses don't really move that fast all the time" - yeah, and people don't normally kill 5,000 people without getting themselves killed, let alone cast magic spells, get healed instantly and go through endless days without any food, sleep or pooping. >=(

    Horses don't normally gallop all the time, this is true. But I would gladly take "can gallop, then needs a break" over "animates in galloping motion, moves at trotting speed, makes it look like it's kind of defying gravity in doing so".

    I tend to ride horses in Skyrim for other reasons... Or let them follow me and fight enemies.

    That being said I wonder how long it'll go until this devolves into a discussion of the My Little Pony video games.

    As Unne has pointed out, sadly, chocobos in FFXIV are pretty slow, too. I think they were faster in the old version, but not by a huge amount.

    And considering you frequently do things like shoot from horseback, Agro was not too slow Del.

    I almost forgot about Agro. I haven't played many games that have horses in them. I've played Majora's Mask and a bit of Ocarina of Time... was Epona in those? I don't remember. I've played an online flash game wherein you have to get a horse from one side of the screen to the other (score measured by distance traveled) but I always got flipped upside down because I don't know how to be a horse.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    Nor could there ever conceivably be one, by the nature of the subject.

    Argo from Shadow of the Colossus is one I always have a hard time steering. A bit of a doofus, that horse is. Then again, I'm not a horse person in real life. Maybe Argo sense this.
