Silent Hunter 3
http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/sim/silent...tabs%3Breviews
8.9/10
The Good
  • Beautiful to behold
  • Simulation elements complement gameplay
  • Compelling dynamic campaign
  • Packed with detail
  • More games need a gramophone.
The Bad


  • Higher resolutions would be nice
  • Where are the wolf packs?
  • Save-game system is annoying.
Silent Hunter 5 (Consider this is 4-5ish years after SH3)
http://uk.gamespot.com/pc/sim/silent...tabs%3Breviews
5.0/10

The Good (not a long list is it?)
  • Deep, immersive sub sim (really?)
  • Tense combat that can really suck you in. (If the aircraft or destroyers can be bothered as the AI is so bad)
The Bad (Note this list pretty much includes the core of the game)


  • Packed with bugs and design flaws
  • Worthless in-game tutorial and manual
  • Sub captain interface is bothersome and tedious
  • Performance hog that drags even the best systems to low frame rates
  • Getting into online games is a significant challenge.
.....I rest my case!
