What is interesting is that Sub Command did actualy quite well. I think someone from Sonalysts said once that EA as a puplisher helped SC quite a bit to penetrate the marked and sell good. For DW they lacked such a strong publisher. I bet with a big name behind it, perhaps even the revival of the Jane's brand, a modern naval sim would do ok even today. The problem is just that no big publisher will go for it. Not because it wont make profit, but because they can make more profit with more mainstream game (which is also understandable).

Personaly I would gladly pay big $ for DW addon. Altough now I would actualy lean more to a successor for DW. The 688(i) is in dire need for a remake, it still has the station graphics from Sub Command and the same functionality as the old 688(I) H/K.

A "Jane's 688(I) Hunter/Killer II", now that would be my dream
