I remember Silent Service very well! :rotfl: I still have it with the box and book all in good condition. I always thought that guy in the white sweater and jeans looked out of place.
I had Silent Service for NES the same time I had Command: Aces of the Deep. There was a point when I couldn't play CAOD because my computer at the time was a real piece of crap. CAOD was given to me before I actually had a computer that could handle it. I would play CAOD on a friend's computer. When I finally was able to play CAOD on my own computer that could handle it, it was a custom machine that kept freezing all the time. Eventually it went back and I had to put up with my crappy one again (Windows 3.1, 1MB RAM, floppy drives for both sizes, 8MHz (had a turbo button for 16MHz woohoo!!
)). That was when I started playing Silent Service. I liked the game, but it just wasn't CAOD. When I got a computer that could finally play CAOD I was overjoyed. I didn't play Silent Service much after that. Another sim I played alot was 688I Attack Sub on Sega Genesis. That game was really cool, although I never really knew what I was doing. After that, the only other sub sims I have played was Jane's 688(i) Hunter/Killer, Sub Command, Dangerous Water, and of course Silent Hunter III. I remember trying the demo to Silent Hunter I, but never got the actual game. Came close, though.
