What's the German word for "taking joy in others' misery"?

In other words, "Promises, promises". (it helps if you sing it, for full effect)

Don't get me wrong. I'm very appreciative that this game exists and that Marcus comes down here and gets his elbows bloodied with the masses... and no, it's not about the screenshots...

It's about setting an expectation and then deciding to give something to the Apple crowd ("Another $50B for Jobs! Yay!") instead of rewarding the loyalists who've been building sweat equity into this franchise since <insert your year here> and buying ever since, even when they KNOW they have no time to even INSTALL THE PRODUCT!

*looks up* ... Yup, that's what I wanted to say. PM me if youse gotta problem with it. Peace!
As much as it may have slowed down OOTP12, if it did....iOOTP will most likely introduce a new customer base to the PC version of the franchise who may never have heard of OOTP developments. This makes more money for OOTP Developments meaning it can go into the future development of Out of the Park baseball! If Markus and Co. don't get paid they don't stay afloat.
