I'm in the UK and bought the PC version which was sold online at £17.99 about ($35) compared to the always over priced XBox version at about £40 ($80).

I'm going to break the bank and buy two copies of SH4 so I can play it on LAN too, I can't wait to try the new adversarial mode controlling the convoy escorts- looks fantastic.

It does sound great. Although I really enjoy online gaming, I just never got into MP with SH3. I'm definitely more interested in what SH4 appears to offer here though.

I recon the game is very limited.. The graphics are great but the single player is very short and theres only a few extra missions after that. The online mode is so dodgy at the moment that i can hardly play any games....

The graphics are nice though

I bought it ...beat it...not impressed at all with it havent played it again since....about the same I did with SHIII, it did/does not hold me captured....I will sell it and others and prob buy SH4 when it comes out cause I want a good naval game...anyone know if SH4 will have a good MP ability?

Very possibly as the same as with SH3, up to no more than 8-15 players, possible objectives to sink some ships...:arrgh!:
