Personally, I'm torn on which theatre I prefer. I loved the Pacific in Silent Hunter and now I love the Atlantic in Silent Hunter III(my machine can't handle SHIV so no idea about that).
I usually prefer playing as the 'underdog' in PC games. The Fleet boats had lot's of problems and had to hold the line in the beginning, but with the might of the US Navy helping to distract the IJN they were hardly alone. The U-boats really were all by themselves against the weight of the Allied forces. It's really amazing that they sank so much with so few boats.
