Sporr needs to update his original post to include a few more versions.

By the way, all old versions are available here:

Previous Versions of OOTP

Great stuff - love seeing the older versions. Started with v4, but love the v5 skin.

Rizon · 11-23-2010, 11:12 AM

I'm OGOOTP, I have all the versions.

I tried out v2 and wasn't too thrilled--lots of crashes, but ended up being my system, not the game. Then when OOTP3 came out, I dove in head-first and loved every minute. I still remember doing an historical league that started in 1903 and I signed every significant future HOFer, winning maybe a dozen championships in 15 years.

No version since then has meant as much to me as OOTP3. But I'm hopeful that iOOTP will be a huge success.

and of course a "real" roster set...

It doesn't by the way.

My first version was 3 back in the day. I had been a Baseball Mogul guy and then OOTP changed everything. The kitchy fun of Mogul always made me overlook how bizarrely inaccurate it was. OOTP, even in version 3, was years beyond its time.

Even though the newer interface and versions confuse the heck out of me still...I can appreciate how awesome it is.

OOTP 6 is what got me hooked into baseball sims. Thank you guys for making the best game out there.

I started with v4 and then 6 & 6.5 which is my favorite still of the bunch. It wasn't too busy and you didn't spend hours reading. I later tried v7 when it was cheap and the last one I got was v10 and am now waiting to buy another when he adds ANIMATED player graphics of some sort. I'd be happy with MicroLeague Baseball Manager type graphics but just something as just watching pictures of players on the bases and they don't even animate running from one to the other just isn't enough. Plus that little ball that doesn't even animate well what's happening isn't any good either. I'd love to see Front Page Sports Baseball type graphics and howlers in the stands shouting "HE AIN'T NUTIN" or Popcorn getcha Popcorn. lol Man I loved FPSBB 98. Can't get it to run without crashing on these modern day puters and OS's though.
