The OOTP 15 reviews and podcast appearances thread
I'll update this thread on a regular basis as OOTP 15 reviews roll in, and when I or anyone else appears on a podcast (see posts below).
"An improvement on (near) perfection," says GM Games. OOTP 15 Review - An Improvement on (near) Perfection "OOTP is a legitimate five-tool game," says Most Valuable Zobrist. "It’s the Mike Trout of baseball simulation software. BUY IT." Out of the Park Baseball 15, Reviewed | Most Valuable Zobrist "[OOTP 15] literally puts the entire baseball world at your fingertips," writes Crooked Scoreboard.

Laser Lemming takes a look at OOTP 15 and says it's "a more in-depth baseball experience than you get in MLB The Show."
Out Of The Park Baseball 15 | LaserLemming.com! Meanwhile, Sam Adams, a TV sports reporter in Spokane, WA, takes on the Mariners in OOTP 15 and writes: "If you're a baseball nut, buy it. If you're a stat freak, buy it. There are so many different ways to play this game ... Take it from a bleary-eyed fanatic who has played this game way too much already: be prepared to lose a lot of time to this game. But, hey, it sure beats watching the Mariners in real life!"

I'll also use this thread to post the shows I appear on to promote OOTP and iOOTP (and, where possible, FHM (and even early talks about BTS)).
If anyone out there knows of shows I should contact, or if you have one and want to have me on as a guest, please let me know. I'm always looking for more outlets. I did close to 30 such interviews last year and want to pass that number this year. I'll kick off this thread with a list of the interviews I've done so far: Around Citi Radio: OOTP Developments' Brad Cook 04/21 by Around Citi Live | Sports Podcasts The Lance Rinker Show 04/22 by The Lance Rinker Show | Sports Podcasts PodOmatic | Best Free Podcasts Channel Z with Zak Winnick #1 - March 29, 2014 | Channel Z with Zak Winnick Big Red Sports Talk - 4/5/14 by Alex Kaufman | Mixcloud Route 4 Sports: The Sports Clinic 04/20 by TSCRN | Sports Podcasts SWTS 450: Pro Talk: Brad Cook, MLB Week 2, NHL Week 26 04/09 by The StatMan | Sports Podcasts PodOmatic | Best Free Podcasts Last edited by BradC; 08-19-2014 at 01:22 PM. |

With all this media exposure, Brad, you'll soon be famous. The world will know you by your first name. Like Cher or Madonna.

Beyond The Box Score: "To the best of my knowledge OOTP does not currently have a theme song, but if it were to have one, it would be Peter Tosh's Steppin' Razor, because this game is dangerous."

Perhaps Three Moves Ahead would be interested. It's a strategy game podcast (not just sports management) but they have covered OOTP before. In fact, that episode of 3MA is the reason I decided to give OOTP a try in the first place!
![]() Edit: I decided to post the contact info, since the episode I linked to was from before they partnered with Idle Thumbs, and I believe even before Rob Zacny took over the hosting duties.
