I never cared to much for the 1st person shooter type Games.
Sure, I did some mods for Doom 1, 2, and even 3.
But I never played them much. Mostly made ideas others had come to life.
Or tried to push things to the limits.
(sound familar?)

Somewhere along the way I had played Silent Hunter 1 and decided to re-visit it.

What I found was Silent Hunter 2. WTH? U-Boats? I played the heck out of that! Sitting in the basement for hours reading as I mostly failed at every attack I tried!

And loving every minute of it!
I didn't know I was becoming an addict at the time.

I'd be at work putting up a new house but my mind would be on the Game.
How did I go wrong here or there? Why do those destroyers keep seeing or hearing me?

I was soon to go on the 'Net and look for answers.
I'll give you a guess where I found those answers.
