No game is perfect not even OOTP, but it sure does what I need it to despite it's shortcomings. I take my glass of OOTP half full, thank you very much  and always look forward to seeing what is added and improved in the next version.
If we get to a point where that doesn't come? I'll be happy continuing on with whatever version I currently have. |
I have several old classmates that constantly post on Facebook about how much better it was to be a kid in the 70/80's than it is today. They get mad at me when I tell them they're nuts. Having access to OOTP at that age would have been incredible. All that free time. Of course, my mom would have loved it too. Between my nephew(Status Pro) and myself(Strat and APBA) we must have burned through 2 small forests worth of paper keeping stats.
