"There's never been a game that celebrates the history of a sport quite like Out of the Park Baseball 17. From playing out matchups that until now could only be fantasized about to accurate minor leagues going back nearly 100 years what has been done with the product is remarkable. The full MLB licensing further legitimizes the series as best-in-class. Management-style games definitely aren't for everyone but baseball purists and aspiring general managers alike will find themselves in heaven with Out of the Park Baseball 17." ... Read full review

If you have always wondered what it would be like to control a baseball franchise you will absolutely love this game. If you have ever dreamt of having the greatest teams from different eras play against each other you will be able to live out those dreams." ... Read full review

I have played a variety of Baseball sims (season replay and management) a variety of other sports sims and it is not even close. OOTP 17 has become more user friendly and more deep each year and now with this year with the 3D game finally mature enough to be enjoyable and useful...it is pure magic. I am a war gamer (the chit pushing kind)primarily and an occasional RPG player and that said the best game on my hard drive is OOTP and probably the most played...or real close. If you have even a passing interest in Baseball or find you enjoy management games of any sort, you owe it to yourself to purchase this game. Expand

Great game if you love baseball,sim/management games. It's no where near FM but is heading in the right direction. Just a few things to mention. Markus, the developer is active on the forum and patches the game frequently. Yes, the forum has a few fanboys who will flame you if you don't agree with them or criticize the game in any way. They're in every forum but for a small community it can be toxic.
The game play is great and there only a few issues I have. The first is the Scouting. It's not where it should be. If done right it could be so much fun. Finances need to worked on. Trading has gotten better but can be improved.
I give it a 7. It's a great game with room for improvement.

This game lacks proper coding and design, making it utterly frustrating to play most of the time.
