Default Even polish firm makes Huuuuuge mistakes

Hello!
I want to paste here link to polish dostributor of SH4:
http://www.cenega.pl/gra_opis.php?ID=2058
there's this info (quote):
"Po trzydziestu latach od czasu wydania pierwszej gry Silent Hunter, seria powraca do kozeni..."

What translated into english sounds: "After THIRTY years since first Silent hunter, the game returns to its roots..."

Wow... i thouht that first SH was avaible in 1996 or so...
Thats one i want to mention..

And next... Why if i click on General Discussion forum on OFFICIAL site of SH4 i go to the SH3 forum??

Yeah.... even internet sites are bugged with SH :P

I don't know. Maybe back in 1976 they were playing with pencil and paper and calling it Silent Hunter 0-1/2.

Silent Hunter (the first version) - I played this when it first came out, on the Commodore 64 computer. This was in approximately 1984-1986.

I read somewhere else that the silent hunter series owes its roots to Sid Miers. I was stunned.

I miss that game (Silent Service) It was a lot of fun. It didn't have BB, CV, or CA, but it did have a dynamic campaign.

OOOPS

You're quite right - Silent Hunter came after it, and I was onto a PC by then!
(Us old guys have faulty memory at times, they say the first two things to go are your short term memory and your short term memory...) Mind you, I HAVE played all the SH games since. (Plus just about anything else from the Pacific theatre)
