Andy, this really might be the release day after all
from http://www.ootpdevelopments.com/article.php?newsid=270
"PREORDER OOTP 6 NOW FOR JUST $25.95! By Markus Heinsohn Yes, that's right! We have looked hard for a way to reward long time OOTP customers with an update price, but due to technical reasons, finding a way to do so has not been easy. The only solution was to create a temporary cutback in price, so we've decided to start a specially limited time preorder period, where the price of the game has been reduced from $34.95 to just $25.95! Preorder now and you get OOTP 6 almost 25% cheaper than the normal price. Remember, the special pricing will only last until the product's official release. After that, OOTP 6 will revert to it's regular price of $34.95. And with the $9.00 you save, you can buy a beer and a hot dog to savor while you play the best baseball simulation on the market! PREORDER NOW!" and from https://www.elicense.com/ootpdevelopments/store/ " Out of the Park Baseball 6 Delivery Method: Electronic Download, Windows PC-CDROM Platform: Windows 98/ME/XP/2000 Out of the Park Baseball 6 is the 2004 version of the award-winning baseball simulation that has established itself as the best baseball managing simulation ever created. Vastly improved features, including a brand new game engine, realistic roster and financial rules (40 man rosters, waivers, rule 5 draft, minor league options, minor league free agents, service time etc.), a new ratings system, head to head online play, adjustable computer AI and better in-game AI make OOTP 6 a must-have for baseball fanatics. Last year's version, Out of the Park Baseball 5, earned a nomination in 2003 Computer Sports Game of the Year category by the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences and received numerous awards by game magazines and websites. Price: $34.95" =============================== Okay, now bear in mind that the dupe bug Skydog reported has already been fixed. Now look at "Remember, the special pricing will only last until the product's official release. After that, OOTP 6 will revert to it's regular price of $34.95." Combine that with the brand-new "Price: $34.95" and you must conclude one of two things: 1. THE GAME REALLY IS BEING OFFICIALLY RELEASED TODAY or 2. Whoever runs the OOTP website really needs to be smacked upside the head. "If the glove don't fit, you must acquit!"

MD, you're not even 10% the man you used to be.

WTF
Okay, I'm being selfish here, if only because it paints a picture of MD that isn't who he is...or should be. SkyDog didn't repot the dupe bug. I did. MD, you're nowhere close to the person you used to be. I agree with spleen. This is now a ridiculously horrible alias. |

Ah, so you guys REALLY want the old Malleus Dei back?
Be careful what you wish for... Anyway, this may well be the release day.

maybe once the game is out and everyone starts asking stupid questions the answers to which can easily be found in the manual we'll see the return of the MD we know and love.
for now though.... hi Henry, how's it goin? |
