With how good so many reviews were of last year's version, they just might have to give this year's version more than perfect scores.

Yeah that is a fantastic bonus - a heavy traffic site, I would guess in the top 5-10 of all baseball blogs, and a site with analytical readers that might take the time to invest in OOTP.

Personal review --

Everything seems to play very good. I enjoy the sound with the game. Have played half a season and have a little concern with the number of homeruns and lack of stealing.

I really like the new scouting - and the advance scouting feature. Had a couple of suspensions and that added more realism.

waiting to play online to see how that works.

No doubt about it, I was a Hardball Times reader before I knew about OOTP and I wish they would have told me earlier! The HBT readership is exactly the type that would be interested in OOTP and should be exposed to this. Great news for the franchise.

REVIEW: Out of the Park Baseball 9 (PC/Mac) | Game Stooge

Kind of short but it's yet another (positive) point of view on the game.

It's short because you have to include the previous review along with it (link given in the review).
