OOTP5 for me. I've bought every one since.

dim13 · 04-13-2013, 10:29 AM

I've been with OOTP since the very beginning - version 1.

Started with OOTP3 and bought every version since then.

oman19 · 04-13-2013, 10:43 AM

OOTP X and every version since.

Sweed · 04-13-2013, 10:48 AM

OOTP 4 (2002) and have imported that game into each new version playing out every inning of every game. Best game I have ever bought.

markmcghee · 04-13-2013, 10:49 AM

Ootp3.

megamanmatt · 04-13-2013, 10:49 AM

6.5 and have preordered every version until v14. Sadly I was and still am too poor to upgrade. Maybe next month.

Raidergoo · 04-13-2013, 10:51 AM

I started with OOTP 4, about a month before my daughter was born. She's 10 now.

Version 4 was addictive, but, man, has this game gone places!

Tycobbler · 04-13-2013, 10:53 AM

Nice pic!

Playing since OOTP4

JohnHoward · 04-13-2013, 10:57 AM

OOTP 3 under its Season Ticket Baseball cover. Purchased every version since then.

DCG12 · 04-13-2013, 11:08 AM

OOTP 4 and every release since.

Afraid to think how many hours spent in front of the computer with OOTP

silvam14 · 04-13-2013, 11:11 AM

OOTP 3 for me. If I had an old pic of me playing OOTP, it would probably have my wife behind me ready to choke me!

Does that mean it's worth lots of money ?

I still have the CD for OOTP1. For kicks, I just tried installing it but I am unable to. No suprise - it's not compatible with Windows 7. Tried running the install in Windows 95 Compatibility mode, but get the error message:

"The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Check your computer's system information to see whether you need an x86 (32-bit) or x64 (64-bit) version of the program, and then contect the software publisher."

Printed on the CD is an old URL:

http://baseball1.com/ootp - which redirects to http://seanlahman.com/ootp

Tyke · 04-13-2013, 11:15 AM

Started with Season Ticket Baseball [= OOTP3?]. Not missed a version since.

Exodor · 04-13-2013, 11:26 AM

Started with 6.5. It's amazing how far the game has come - and 6.5 was pretty sweet.

TGH-Adfabre · 04-13-2013, 11:34 AM

6.5 or 7, whatever was out in the fall of '07. Absolutely love this game.

Pineywoods OOTPer · 04-13-2013, 11:37 AM

All of this nostalgia must make me the baby then...

Only since OOTP11.

My wife stands behind me and says "I don't know why you're so attached to a bunch of 1's and 0's."
