just a thought here... the reason why there is so much attention to the 'amount' of action, as opposed to the 'intensity' of the action... probably lies in the fact that there needs to be a lil more first person immersion in the game (uuhh, sorry, sim )

i mean, if you were 'there' instead of being on top of it all with a god's eye perspective, zooming around in fast time, searching for convoys...

if you had more sub 'stuff' to do... controlling the sub, standing watch, actually fixing damage and stuff...


plus...

as i remember it, there was a lot of pacific action in those movies i saw as a kid... Clark Gable and Burt Lancaster sure seemed to have their hands full...


and Cary Grant and crew also saw some action as sailed toward Destination Tokyo...

Glenn Ford and Ernest Bornine also did their thing in the pacific in Torpedo Run...


and don't let 'The Duke' hear ya say that there weren't no action during his tour of duty in Operation Pacific...


finally... who would not want to experience the voyage of the SS Sea Tiger as they participated in Operation Petticoat...


the pacific sub war... hey, it's got a lot to offer
