What am I better off doing, Playing everything or simulating the season?

I'm playing all the games, I'm already to 8/21/08(in about 3-4 days), not as far as some people, but it seems pretty far to me even though it didn't take too long. I plan on finishing the season today.

If you're going to simulate, why even get the game? Just get a straight-forward sim like Baseball Mogul or OOTP and be done with it.

I don't think there's anything wrong with simulating games (life can get in the way of playing games) but I think you can only get maximum enjoyment by playing. I've been playing every game.

I'm with you on that. You definitely miss out on building relationships, hobbies and abilities at your own discretion when you sim through.

I played a full season in about two days, so it's not that bad.

Thanks. I have been playing them all because honestly it doesn't take very long anyway but was curious.
