Timetraveller,
It is sad the game turned out the way it is, but it sounds like there is hope and much good reason for it. I would love an SH3-ish experience with PT boats...and just look at how many pages the S Boat has! lots of us would love a great PT/ S-boat game. I can't get over how sad it is it turned out like this...it looked sooo good too.
And don't judge by post count...I'm gettin' up there and I know how to use the search button
