Thread: How did you FIRST find out about Baseball Mogul or Football Mogul?

    Believe it or not, I found out about BBMO while sifting through game reviews. (amazon.com) I had bought Season Ticket Baseball (Out of the Park) and was checking out the reviews of it online where I noticed some guy had posted his approval of the game. In his comments he also mentioned BBM and the fact that it had an online game. That intrigued me so I did a search for it and found the Sports Mogul website. And here I am today with a new addiction.

    I came across baseball mogul 99' by searching for it in a search engine (google or maybe it was excite back in 99'). I LOVED the demo version and went to best buy when it was released in SEPT. Baseball Mogul was no where to be found in the chicagoland area. I was dissapointed to say the least. Everytime I went to Best Buy, Wal Mart exc. I would check and see if it had arrived. None of my stores carry it, so I eventually forgot about it untill a year or so ago, when the online baseball game I was playing (grandslam baseball) went under and someone in the forums said they found this cool new baseball sim. I had just missed the demo testing of BMO and decided to let the bugs get worked out before joining your game.

    I have been very happy with this game, but I would love to see some of the features from the cd-rom game added to the online game. One of my favorite things about the cd rom game was the unpredictability of the players and their agents. You couldn't just assume they would sign with you. the player had to WANT to sign with you and you had to offer him a contract and see what the agent thought. I LOVED that and am VERY dissapointed to not see that in the online version. It adds an aspect of realism that seperates it from just another baseball sim. The other cool feature was the player position graphic. Seeing your players name in right field, center field exc. adds another depth of realism that makes the cd rom game so great. The online game could use a little more realism to make it truely the elite simulation game it can be.

    keep up the good work.

    Online

    I found a demo of Baseball Mogul 2002 on www.gamerevolution.com and downloaded it, took two hours too. But it was worth it, and I continuously found about Mogul 2003 from this site, and I bought it from Wal-Mart.

    How i found out

    I found out form a friend of mine who had 2002, and when '03 cam out we all downloaded it form him
    is anyone here in highshcool?
    i am
    and i have a laptop
    and i must say that i played 2002 for all of freshman year, it made te most boring class fun
    i would alwyas hide my computer screen so my techer couldn't see
    me and my friends would build dynatsy after dynasty
    even making crappy teach such as "the Vermont Fudgepacers" (i'm from New Hampshire if you can't tell why i hate vermont, "Vermont, the state that makes New Hampshire nervous", just to clear things up we in NH make fun of vermonts gay marriages but thats off topic.)
    But when '04 came out
    we were all like little school girls meeting the new Senior Pretty boy
    i almost peed my pants i was so happy
    so we split the money 3 ways
    and baught it
    and i must say that if baseball mogul doesn't live on
    i will do everything in my power to aid the wonder GODS THAT HAVE SAVED MY HIGHSCHOOL LIFE, in maintaining this buisness
    WHO'S WTH ME?

    I was looking for a baseball game where you could be the general manager, and sure enough mogul came up on google.

    I have,and I had bought back in the day---The original baseball Mogul for windows 95 by infinite monkey systems, back in 1997/98. I think I had originally found the game thru some internet search engine/and or review site. I was messing with Microsoft's Baseball 98 with randy johnson on the cover. I just recently found the game in some boxes, and it rekindled my thoughts as to what had happened to the game. No comparing version 7 with that original---version 7 is miles and miles from that original. But I still have it!

    I happened across Baseball Mogul on Amazon.com. I saw Football Mogul here on the SM website, but as I just posted on one of the Football threads I'm waiting for an upgraded version to jump into that one. Looks like I may be waiting awhile (?!!).

    2k1 wasn't released. Due to the publisher falling out. My best experience with SPorts Mogul was on Baseball Mogul Online. It is were the most enthusiastic players play. They are on this site for upwards of 6-8 hrs a day..playing the game

    I saw it at Wal-Mart, and the box made it look really, really worth buying and it was. And like another poster mentioned, I hadn't followed baseball since the 95-96 strike, I was really turned off from the game after that , being the Astros looked series bound that year. I bought the game mainly because of the 90 years of rosters.
