But I digress. There is at least one non-horse who seems to respect and understand the plight of non-humans. I’m talking about Randall, the Honey badger guy of YouTube fame. In the latest teaser for The Sims 3: Pets, Randall walks his fellow non-horses through all the exclusive animals available for those who pre-order The Sims 3: Pets.

Above: Randall has always been treasured for his insightful commentary amongst equines. But his videos have enjoyed a “viral” level of popularity amongst humans as well

A closer look at The Sims 3: Pets’ cat and dog exclusives are welcome. But of course real gamers care most about horses - the best and strongest quadruped on the planet. For more on equines in the PC version of The Sims 3: Pets, check out our interview with assistance producer Ryan Vaughn.

Who? B. Buttercup What? Senior Wildlife Editor How did I get here? After receiving an honorary degree from Brown University’s College of Science, I moseyed on to Pfizer, where I spent four years in the research and development department working on experimental treatments for Alzheimer’s disease. Life seemed pretty sweet. I had all the sugar cubes, Adderall, and cash that an equine could want. That’s when I met GamesRadar’s Associate Editor, Chris Antista, a young human, who convinced me to leave the highly lucrative pharmaceutical industry with a large bag of feed. Stuff I done: The Top 7… sexy horses every stud should ride Loves: Sugar cubes, prancing, getting published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, National Velvet, salt. Hates: Spurs, jockeys, Elmer’s Glue, The Godfather. Now playing: Plants vs Zombies, BlazBlue, World of Warcraft
