I spend many long hours playing those older Microprose games. I didn't have the red storm rising because at that time I was only into Airplanes and not subs. But I've read a few books about WWII submarine logs and have always had an interest in WWII subs ever since. It was only later that I started buying submarine computer games. That was after my WWII flight Sim Multiplayer Days.

As I got older the slower pace of the Submarine games became more appealing. It was not possible to hit the pause button on the Multiplayer Internet WWII Flight Sim game in the middle of a hot multiplane dogfight at 25,000 ft AMSL.

But with a single player game I was always trying to learn what I was doing right or wrong and used the pause button often. I'd pause the game and go read the manual for tips on what to do.
