Interesting design to a game! I like the concept. Looking foward to more on this game.

.. And at $19.99, its pretty much a no-brainer.

We think $35 would be too much for a game that is basically in it's first version (although it is build using the OOTP 5 engine), and not as in-depth as OOTP. It is a lot of fun for sure, and at a low price it will make a lot of fans, at least I hope so

korme · 09-27-2003, 11:21 AM

Beautiful, Markus. The designs for the "Park" (should I call it in that?) series' keep getting better and better every year.

GrantDawg · 09-27-2003, 11:51 AM

Is that your picture, Markus? You don't look how I imagined.

korme · 09-27-2003, 12:05 PM

No, it isn't.

rexallllsc · 09-27-2003, 12:56 PM

Markus, remember a while back when you talked about how older video games (spots ones) were a lot more fun than the new ones? The ones w/ almost cartoon-osh graphics?

OOTP meets Triple Play for Genesis would be AWESOME. I know most of the hardcore simmers here would be opposed, but I think it would be pretty darn cool.

Agreed, and a good thing for us I'd say.

daftest game concept in years!

JeeberD · 09-27-2003, 06:28 PM

Looks cool. Since it's only going to be twenty bones I'll probably give it a shot...

PilotMan · 09-27-2003, 10:21 PM

I have been watching for this, and for 20 bucks makes it an auto-buy. I hope it plays as good as it looks. I also hope that career development is realistic. To me it seems that the majority of players should never make the majors, but also, in a game if you never make the show the game could get old quick. But the converse is true as well.

Swaggs · 09-27-2003, 10:40 PM

Hopefully it will be just as fun to be a backup middle infielder as to be a stud starting pitcher.

It will also be interesting to see if there is an agent/player dynamic--so, when you are a 36 year old middle reliever with no gas left in the tank, you can go to your agent and see if he can somehow get you a job, so you can hang on as long as possible.

Swaggs.. I am dissapointed that you didnt make some joke about my team here

You must be getting soft

Which overpaid aging team would that be?

So true... I don't consider myself very poor, but I'm on a budget and I have to be picky and right now, there seems like too many good ones are being talked about...

I already like TotalProFootball's potential, as my favorite sport is Pro football, but I've also read about CM 03/04 and find it very interesting, especially since I've never played any of the CM games, this may be the one to get. Then I get it by this one. I'm not a big baseball fan, but this one kind of gets me. Very, very interesting concept... Oh well, bring 'em on! I'll find an occasion for the family to give them to me as presents, they never know what to give and ask for suggestions

Good luck with ITP. Hopefully it's as successful as its anagram PTI...or better yet...OOTP

tucker342 · 09-28-2003, 09:09 PM

I'll be buying this! If it plays as good as it looks, your set!

My first thought is that I hope that Gap Power will replace "doubles" and "triples" ratings in OOTP6, and that the way "running speed" affects baserunning, stolen bases and range is implented as well, rather than having guys with E baserunning but A outfield range.

Exactly something like this will happen...

Ksyrup · 09-29-2003, 07:56 AM

Will there also be a "warning track power" rating so we can closely approximate Will Clark from about 1992 through the end of his career?

My wife and I have an "at home movie night" every week, so I know I will at least return one movie every week.

I agree. Low expectations are the way to go.
