My first Strat game was the 1969 season. I continued playing into the mid-80's and loved the game playing out the full season for my favorite team and compiling stats. I dreamed of having a game that would play a full season, with standings and stats, though I never thought it would happen.

Around 1990 I found Lance Haffner games and Full Count Baseball (is that the correct name?). Season replays with standings and leaders, I was in heaven

2002 I read of a game called OOTP and bought version 4. Similar to Haffner's game except it was a baseball world that "lived". Standings, stats, leaders, and players aged, had a career arch, and eventually retired. Whoa

I loved Strat, I really did! Having said that I'd never go back to it, OOTP is the ultimate baseball game without a doubt.
