I have played them all. FOTRS, RFB and TMO. Since none of were around in ww2, how can we know what realistic means? Leaving that aside, the first version FOTRS, which I haven't played for a couple of years, had beautiful graphics. I did not find RFB or FOTRS nearly as difficult as TMO. If you can escape the dds easily, which I can do in those games, you have more shooting chances, but I get bored. I enjoy the fact that I may get my head shot off when I gun for the enemy. I get a kick out of TMO because half the time you are running and evading escorts, attacking a convoy is tough, and going after a big TF is REALLY tough (It is like trying to get a sunbeam past a rooster at the crack of dawn.*) If you like sinking ships, TMO is not for you, but if you want a tough game, it is the one. A rep from Ubisoft once told me the SH4 forum members were as hard core as it gets. She certainly had to be referring to those that played TMO, and various modders --too many to name -- that have produced some brilliant work.
