The various tastes of SH4

[Drebbel]

Don't tell me you never licked the SHIII box :arrgh!:

[Sonarman]

It's probably a misatke on their part but Amazon UK now lists a "making of SH4 DVD" rather than the soundtrack CD

"
Special collector's edition contains:
Silent Hunter 4 game DVD with manual, poster and quick reference card
Special box with specific artwork
Recognition manual
Making of Silent Hunter 4 DVD
Arm patch"

Sorry Ark. The traffic in this forum is so high, and I am so rusty, that I had missed your thread.

No worries, Dreb. :)

There are probably folks who missed it anyways. I'd rather see two of the same threads than 50 of the same question. :up:

I'll be happy with just the dvd and a manual. :smug:
