It was a single mission! I played single missions in SH2, and they always started you submerged, and the ships you had to sink were always off in the distance somewhere! How was I to know this would be different? Yes, I was new to the game! It's not like the time in the Naval Acadamy when I was shelling a merchant and got too close and he blew up right next to me and killed me and my career and one of the Acadamy's best instuctors!

Wait...did I say that out loud?

Actually a video doesn't tell you anything about that particular game. SH2 was buggy, but it got fixed. The graphics were pretty good for the time, and it had multiplayer with Destroyer Command so you could have guys trying to attack convoys and guys running the escorts trying to sink the u-boats. All-in-all it wasn't a bad game; it's only real problem was the campaign, which was nothing more than a bunch of scripted missions with no replay value at all. No actual career, and no variety.

EXCEPT that it led to a lot of people giving them a lot of feedback which in turn led to SH3...a much better product. Therefore, it had a lot of value...
