iOOTP 2011 Hands-On Preview

[RaychelSnr]

Out of the Park Baseball (OOTP) has been one of the finest games in the text-sim realm for many years now. WIth the recent trend of text sims porting over to the iPlatform, it was only a matter of time until iOOTP made its own move.

I recently got a chance to play an advanced copy of iOOTP for the iPhone, and I can say that the game definitely translates over to the smaller screen, but it's not entirely perfect yet.

I don't personally have an idevice, but this looks pretty good. Anything that helps get the OOTP name out there is a good thing too.

Did they really misspell "Tap anywhere to close?"

I guess I had to much German beer that night.

The screen shot is pretty old, I corrected it a long time ago.

Will this work on iPhone 3G? I like to assume no as Apple has already released two versions since, but I like to also disappoint myself in hopes that I'd be pleasantly surprised.

It's too bad this is not an Android app too. I'd be all over that when it comes out.

We will not officially support the iPhone 3G but I have one and it runs ok (you still need iOS 4.0 or newer). The startup is a bit longer but once you are in the game it runs ok. Just make sure not to tap Manual, More OOTP Games or Community as they will open in external browser and the 3G has no multitasking (closing the game).
