Re: Yes... Im a gamer...
I served 2 years (1973-75) aboard a nuclear fast attack boat, USS Tautog (SSN639). Worked several plots and the fire control computer during Battle Stations. Yes, 688 was pretty realistic.Wayne Szot wrote:Ooh! I love sub games! Back in the day I played 688(I) for hours on end... It seemed very realistic (granted I wasn't *in* the navy, but it seems like that's how it was mostly). If SH5 is good I may have to nab it... is it a realism game?
Also played Silent Hunter:Wolves of the Pacific. Edited the config files so I could command the USS Tautog (SS199). SS199 sank the most tonnage of WWII and shot down 1 Japanese plane during the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Re: Yes... Im a gamer...
Is Silent Hunter 5 similar to Silent Hunter Online? http://www.silenthunteronline.com/
