    If you are looking for a management sim where the sky is the limit, look no further than Out of the Park Baseball 15. Year after year, OOTP Developments puts out a premier product. The scope of this game is amazing. You can manage teams from the Major Leagues through the minor leagues to international ball. I have had a blast playing this game. Highly recommended.

    This is an excellent baseball management sim game. If you're not familiar, you control all of the GM and Manager duties, and have the capability to manage the games real time if you're so inclined. You don't actually hit or pitch the ball, but if you're the type to pick up a console sports game and sim the games while acting as the GM you absolutely need to buy this game now.

    Out of the Park Baseball is the best baseball game I have ever played. It's not an arcade title, but rather it puts you in the driver's seat of your favorite baseball franchise.

The game comes with real players & teams (full MLB 2014 Opening Day rosters plus complete minor leagues, and also 7 international leagues with real players / teams) and also every season in MLB history (1871-2013) which you can replay or start your alternate history with. On top of that, you can create fictional leagues or combine any type of league in your own baseball universe. The possibilities are endless!… Expand

    I have been playing OOTP since version 3 and this game just gets better and better each year. If you are a baseball nut then this game is for you.

    OOTP keeps getting better year on year. The only reason I didn't give it 9 is because the 3D graphics system is till very much a work in progress, but that will apparently improve next year, and maybe before through a patch.

    You could not find a better sports simulation game for baseball, anywhere. This game gives you so much for the small amount that you pay. Can be difficult for new players because there is so many options but the forum they have is amazing for help and ideas. One of the best games I have ever purchased.

    The ultimate baseball management sim. Incredible depth and options for the baseball stat geek. If you love the numbers and intricacies of the game of baseball this is for you.

Play it solo or, for what I feel is the real challenge, join one (or more) of the many free online leagues and compete against 20 or more other baseball aficionados.

    If you want a baseball video game like The Show or want to be the next Babe Ruth, both at bat and on the mound, this isn't the game for you. This isn't for you to swing the bat or throw the pitch, this game is for the person who thinks he can be a major league manager or general manager. Evaluate players, build your organization, set the strategy, make draft picks and trades to try to build your dynasty, cut the veteran when he his bat is more detrimental than his experience is a plus or promote that hot rookie straight from AA ball to the big leagues. Again, this is a management sim and one of the best of it's kind regardless of the sport.

    Is it perfect? No but it is as close as any game can be. The support from OOTPD is superb. They listen to their customers including adding features suggested in their forums. They will work with you on any issues you have and with any game this complex there may be some issues. When there is an issue found they work with you to get it fixed and issues patches when they are needed.

    This is the total package: Great responsive support and the ultimate Baseball Management Game. I have been playing it since OOTP9 and every year it just gets better.

    If management simulation is what you are looking for then you have found it. If you love Football Manager and either love baseball or want to learn about the game then OOTP15 is the next natural step for you.    … Expand

    I have played every version since v1. OOTP 15 is another solid home run. My only complaint is the 3D Stadium Model is very much a first attempt and is not on par with the rest of the game. Having said that and based upon prior experience with the franchise I do like the concept and I think eventually (probably around 16 or 17) it should be very good.

    It is too bad baseball is not very popular in Holland, because Out of the Park Baseball 15 is ten times better than it's predecessor.

    Whether you want to just jump right into a game or season, or want to create a league from scratch, Out of the Park ’15 has the ability to do it and once again raises the bar for baseball management simulators. While the 3D effects to need some work, there’s no doubt that this is an awesome simulator for those who want to customize any and every aspect of the game.
