![]() Rating: - Tough Sim, But Loads of Fun What a cool Game! In the highest reality settings, it is a really tough game. I am still in training, and am having a heck of a time with the torpedos. The calculations and whatnot, are super tough! As far as Ubisoft protection screwing up my computer? Not a single problem. It will only run on a READ ONLY DVD-ROM. It loaded and runs like a purring kitten. I can monitor my Gforce 7600 GT temp settings, and it does seem to crank the temp, by about ten degrees F., or so. I can hear my Tower ...

But please note for eveery one who says the game is "too difficult" they didn't look hard enough when you are about to begin a patrol you should find something that says "Change Realism" click on that and change it to your pleasure. Then you may command a variety of U-boats such as the Type IIA and IID coastal boats, VIIB,VIIC,VIIC/41,VIIC/42 fleet boats. ...

GWX2.1 was developed by an enthusiastic group of modders led by Capt.Lehman who make their online home [...]. This is a freeware mod available for download from members' signatures or from the GWX website. This mod has a great variety of ships. The harbors are full of life and traffic. The realism level and graphics are so improved that make GWX a completely ... Read More Rating: - Silent Hunter 3Not since Sierra's classic Aces of the Deep have fan's of the German WW2 submarine sim genre had much to get excited about, but that all changed when Ubi Soft released SH3. While still not quite the equal of AOD (it's still the standard for the genre), SH3 comes very, very close. The graphic's are great and the game play is very solid. The game run's very stable with Vista OS and I experianced no installation problems or crashes. I run SH3 with just about all graphics and sound options maxed and suffer no ... Read More Rating: - Slow paced sub simI understand this is a simulation. Perhaps I am too acustomed to faster paced action found in FPS's and RTS type games. But for what its worth silent hunter III is a solid sub sim. There are parts that lag though, especially getting to and from your objective area. Stalking allied convoys loses its thrill after twenty minutes of trying to line up a torpedo shot while avoiding lightening quick destroyer escorts. Enjoyable if you prefer slow paced simulation over constant action. Overall not a bad game. |
