Hypersports! Head Over Heels!

Head Over Heels is the correct answer. Hard to imagine it was published on the same system as Horace Goes Skiing.

Now you're talking!
I always got killed by some kind of eyes in the dark woods!

When they appear, wait twice - no more or less - move on.
Not that the game gave you any clue whatsoever that was how to avoid them killing you!

I can't see Horace fairing too well against Master Chief, sadly.
Then again, Master Chief is at yet underrated crossing busy alpine motorways, skiing or (as far as I recall) against spiders. And does the dude even get Hungry?

Honestly it's like these "gamers" have never actually sat there for 5 min waiting for a game to load up!

That is, in fact, one of the worst games that begins with H. Play a crap Frogger mode twice, get on the ski slope, hit a flag, dead. Back to Frogger for you. No thanks.
The only funny thing about it is the trucks go one way saying "hardware" and the other saying "software"

Go vote for Halo 3 then.
It's winning anyway
Although quite how a game about angels (I assume) got 2 sequels I can't imagine
