Ive played every Silent Hunter and they were all awesome in their time and way. SH3 is a classic of course where you can't go wrong and SH4 is great if you need that fleet boat fix, but personally nothing compares to SH5 and The Wolves of Steel for me in terms of atmosphere, realism and immersion. I never once bothered playing stock SH5, but my experience with TWOS installed has only been stable and fantastic. SH5's main limitation to me is that you are stuck with only the type VII (type II and IX are my favorites go figure) but overall everything else makes it worthwhile to me. Whether you go with SH3, 4 or 5, you'll need a megamod to take full advantage and have the best experience.
