Why not give away a DVD of Das Boot with each copy of SHV?

You completely miss the point. It's not about subsimmers who represent less than ten percent of total sales....they are a done deal... it's about attracting the other ninety percent to the game and improving that total number.

Members of this Forum and the other subsim Forums are a known quantity. They are all going to buy the game. Some of them will then moan and complain because ideas they wanted in the game are not in the game, and the modders will address some of those issues in the year after release. Been there. Seen it. Have the T shirt.

But in order for the franchise to continue, we need the casual gamer sales to be higher than they have ever been. That's what Ubisoft is looking for. Many of those folks may not have even heard of the Silent Hunter series, but if they see Silent Hunter V being sold with a free movie, that they also may not have seen but which looks good, then the package might interest them.
