I always wished I could tell my friends about OOTP. Not only could NOT tell them about the game and try to get them to buy it.....I never even told them that I played the game. I had one friend who had an idea what I was doing and the amount of time I was spending on it but all he gave me was crap. So I kept quiet.
I envy those that played the game and fed their obsession while telling their friends and family.
