Any good basketball text sims?

[sieve]

I enjoy text simulation games (like Baseball Mogul) and was curious if there was a preferred basketball one? Any thoughts or suggestions?

I am with you. I played Out of The Park (www.OOTP.com). It is excellent.

I had a Commodore 64 as a kid and Avalon Hill had Statis Pro Baseball...Still my favorite text-based simulation baseball game ever..

I don't think there's any good ones... I've been looking myself but haven't found one worth paying for yet.

Thanks guys. It is hard to believe there isn't one out there but I'll keep looking.

There's Draft Day Sports: Pro Basketball by a company called Wolverine Studios. You can download a demo from the website here. http://www.wolverinestudios.com/ddspb/ OS reviewed the game and gave it an 8 http://www.operationsports.com/review.php?id=57 They also have a college basketball text sim as well to go along with the Pro one. Also, the sequel to Draft Day Sports: Pro Basketball is supposed to be coming out sometime in the near future from what I have read.

Also, if your looking for a good college basketball text sim Fast Break College Basketball is really good. It doesn't look like much now since it is like 6 years old but, the game is just fun to play. You can download a demo from http://www.fbbgames.com/fbcb/ They too have a pro game as well but, I vastly prefer the college version.

You can't go wrong with Strat-o-Matic; these guys pretty much invented the genre:

I've also been researching but strat-o-matic and action pc basketball have looked like the top 2.

Just found TMG Pro Basketball. I'm considering this and Action PC Basketball.
