As for movies, I have a taped copy of this one:

I'm amazed that no one has ever released it on DVD. |
Hi Sailor Steve,
I have delayed my re-entry to "The Cruel Sea" once again after seeing your post. I had not heard of that movie but it is now in my evergrowing notes of things to watch for.
As you say, today's graphics could cope well with that sort of "game". I have just bought a new computer solely to be able to play SHIII + every available mod I might wish to add to it in the numerous copies I have installed. I installed a few other games on it as soon as I got it, including Destroyer Command, Fighting Steel and some others. When I told the supplier my only interest in "games" was SHIII he said I would be well over-equipped, but I don't know what's coming next, after watching GW grow and grow over the years so I bought the best I could afford.
Anyhoo! I only took a break a while ago to pour another beer. I just poured another one - and a whisky too - so I better get back and pay attention to my movie.
'Til later!
