Be forewarned about the Steam version though... Not that it doesn't work or anything, just that when you purchase "Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific" from them, you are paying for the "v1.3" copy of the game. However, you cannot add the v1.4 update to the Steam version, plus most mods are written for the v1.5 of the game. Now, FOTRS v2.x is for v1.4 and is absolutely gorgeous, though it is in German only, so you could not play that with the Steam version... Oops, sorry, I am getting distracted again...

For the Steam player to be able to play version 1.5 of the game, after paying for "Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific", you then (usually) have to purchase the "Silent Hunter 4: U-Boat Missions Add-On", which brings the game up to v1.5 - Don't take my word for it though, they may have changed their policy in that regard, so check with Steam themselves. Basically, v1.3 is next to worthless. The U-Boats Add-On makes the game very playable...
