    A sweeping 360-degree look at your boat and its surroundings adds much to the immersive quality -- a quality that is sorely needed in other departments of the sim.
  2. Gameplay is great, the graphics are fine (without being jaw-droppingly good), the presentation is good and the difficulty level can be tweaked to your exact specifications.
  3. While this game is enjoyable, interesting, clever and even educational, its realism may be its weak point. If I haven’t impressed upon you enough, it’s a slow evolving, deliberate game requiring patience and intelligence.

    It is good gaming with SH II. Though in scenarios a bit limited even with the scenario builder.

    I just bought Silent Hunter Commanders Edition packaged with Fighting Steel and guess what? Absolutely no support for Windows XP. hey install and show up for about 2 seconds, then dissapear. In the future I will make sure that I don't buy any drink coasters. Or software from this company. Expand
