Should I wait?

I have heard great things about this game. I came here today to buy OOTP but now I see OOTP9 is coming soon. Should I just wait for that release? Or is there nice new owner deal where I can buy 9 and get 8 to play with till 9 drops...lol?

Really though should I just wait? Is there a date on 9?

At this point, I think you might as well wait for 9 or pre-order it. You can play the demo of 8 to see what the game is like. Version 9 will not be amazingly different, just a better version of 8.

I would wait as well. In fact I just re-installed Vista on my laptop and have decided to not install OOTP 8 considering the game will be released soon. Why clutter the system with OOTP 8 just to un-install it when 9 comes out.

Just though I'd make note of this apparent contradiction.

If I were Markus, and I'm not, to entice v9 sales, I think I'd make v8 free at this point with a license that expired after a certain number of days unless v9 was purchased or something to that effect.

......if that's even possible.

It is possible they did it last year as a Special "Bata" contest, where they gave 10 lucky pre-orders something like 3 days with a early copy of the game. There where a couple of loop holes but it worked pretty well

It was 100, and I am lobbying to repeat this. You get the perspective of a fresh set of eyes.
