Welcome to the Pacific! After SH3 I never thought an AMERICAN sub experience could compare. How wrong I was! After playing SH4 I've been inspired to read a ton about the submarine effort in the Pacific, and there's just as much, if not more, to sink your teeth into when compared to U-boats in the Atlantic. Enjoy the experience, and yes...you'll LOVE the radar!

Good Hunting,
Howler

p.s. I do miss them screaming, "Aaallllaaarrrrmmmm!" dearly though...oh well...

Yeah, I'm afraid my enthusiasm for SH4 has caused me to neglect SH3 too much. I've always loved the U-boat story and SH3 is a great game, but SH4 has me in its clutches and isn't about to let go since I've been into Trigger Maru and the challenge is high enough to sustain my interest.

Oh well, I suppose SH3 is patient and it is in no danger of leaving my hard drive. It's just probably the ice cream I like and when that runs out....

Well the ice cream will have to wait for me as I can't afford the "freezer" upgrade for SH4 just yet. Got a fridge full of Beck's, Augustiner Bräu and more for any thirsty USN skippers but don't forget the ice cream!

I'm sure everyones heard the immortal phrase in movies, TV, or books, "Take her down!".
The story behind that:

If you do some reasearch, you'll find all sorts of cool stories or accounts like that.
