CAoD was my first, but 688(i) takes the prize as my all-time favorite. Nowadays, I spend most of my time playing a combination of SH4, SH3 and DW.

Silent Service, NES 8-bit

Silent Service 2 on an IBM 386 at about the same time as Red Storm Rising on the C64.

For some reason the sims seem to be getting harder.......

Fast Attack :yep:

I know I played a few oldies, but can't think of the names.

Otherwise it's Silent Service 2 on a very ancient IBM compatible.

My first was a game on the TSR-80. It came with a book from which you could copy (as in type by hand) programs. I typed in the submarine program. No graphics, just numbers as the bow angle of your sub slowly reached a 90-degree angle on the merchant ship you were targeting. There was even a DD that would come after you. You could "dive" and stay under until the DD went away....which from my exprience it never did.:rotfl:

But my first real sub sim was Silent Service II.

Silent Service or Gato, back in the C-64 days.

Well it's obvious that Seaquest is superior to SH4, the devs didn't even bother to model sharks and diving enemy subs that fire at you in the supposedly "modern" sim ....progress my arse! ;)

I remember laying graph paper across the screen
and marking with a pencil for tma.

Hi, new guy here (be gentle, ok?).

For me, also Silent Service on Ninetendo.
Second was Silent Service I for DOS (still have the CD, too).
