I like that game! It reminds me of the old Windows 3.1 game Bang! Bang!. :lol:

That's probably where they got their inspiration from. I can remember my freshman year of college playing that game when I was suppose to be writting term papers...no wonder why I don't have a degree.

That has to be one of my all time favourite programs that gets screened here in the UK on the Discovery channel. That ex Navy seal guy get's really excited about some of this stuff. Awesome series. :rock: :rock:

Took me 3 shots to take out the nearest bunker. On my 4th shot now trying for the comms tower. :arrgh!:

:oops: Nope.

Can you pick off each target in the first 7 levels with one round?:smug:

I will get a perfect score. Although, I have played all 15 levels about 7 times now.

You ARE keen Danilisa. :lol: I've got to round five and I'm bored of it. :zzz: I'm bored of work too and all I want to do is get home, boot up the rig and go a hunting off the north west coast of Africa in my Type VIIb. :yep:

I'm the 'point & click' generation.:rotfl:This game will keep me amused for hours (um, it already has).

....all I want to do is get home, boot up the rig and go a hunting off the north west coast of Africa in my Type VIIb.
I can relate to that. However, the only thing I'll be sinking when I get home is beer.:arrgh!:

I guess it is significantly possible to up your score on this game by getting bonus points for shells left over at the end of a level. This is my second go through the game. I really didn't miss many shots, so I am guessing 180K might be near the best score possible.

You don't want to make it more realistic! You're just looking for an easy way to win! It's guys like you who ruin the game for everybody else! You're just...

No, wait...

I can't get the right angle on my dangle past the 10th round. I always end up one shell short.:oops:
Someone was talking about mods? :hmm:

for one second, I thought you were going to say you always wind up shooting yourself. That's easy to fix, don't stand infront of the barrel:up:
