Sinec Strat doesn't exist for the Mac, I've been looking for a strong substitute. Has anyone ever played OOTP Baseball? What do you think?

fyi - cascboas - you asked to be in Barnstormers but have failed to check your private mail and provide me with any e-mail contact information. As such, Barnstormers Event #1 is almost finished loading without you.

If you still want to participate, please provide the necessary info in PM.

Thanks

Moose

Fun game, great for GM and Franchise development. Very deep ownership and franchise models (including owner related input such as ticket prices, vendor prices, salary caps etc). In game play engine is OK. Integrates to the Lahman baseball database so you get EVERY player in baseball history when you buy the game, no additional charge for individual seasons. Does not integrate L/R splits into gameplay from the Lahman DB though.

If you know Baseball Mogul, think of it as a combo between that and Strat, except not as good as the originals. A nice combo though.
