OMG! This game was awesome . . . right up there with Dragon Warrior. No wonder why I ended up the way I did

A buddy of mine's NES was worn out, probably, from both of us taking turns on that game.

Good gameplaywith that one. Not much for eye candy, but a lot of fun as it started to get away from the arcade style games.

I still have that game with my NES (with box and book). I'll never get rid of it. I remember SS well. When I didn't have a computer for Command: Aces of the Deep at the time, I started up Silent Service and played it quite a bit.

The good old days! It was a game way ahead of it's time and the graphics were pretty good for the period too. I remember the overlay for the keyboard! Wow, lot's of hours spent playing Silent Service, the original.
