This is wild! Just happen to be crusing forums and run across this. Listen:
I have been playing Fast Attack everyday for the last two months. After downlding it from one those free dos game sites, I was so taken, I ordered the game CD from ebay. And nothing's been the same.

Let me put it like this. Here is a partial list of the sub games I have:

Silent Hunter I. II, III, (Wolves) IV
Enigma Rising Tide
Sub Command
Dangerous Waters
688 Attack Sub
5th Fleet
Harpoon
Silent Steel (movie game)
Aces of the Deep
Destroyer Command
Wolf Pack
Steel Tide
etc., etc.

No game, I repeat, none, nada, makes me feel like a real sub driver like Fast Attack. Now, c'mon, I know that what you like is subjective, but as you can see I aint no casual player...I eat, sleep and dream submarines! And, bar none, nothing comes even close to what I consider what it would be like than Fast Attack (well, maybe Enigma. But I classify that as a sub-shoot 'em up, not an actual sim).

Funny, with all the modern bells-and-whistle games in my collection, it's a dos, back-in-the day game that I most enjoy. Go figure.
