HEY! Don't be knockin' Crash Dive! Any movie that has original ELCO 77-footers and S-boats can't be all bad.

99.9%, sure, but that 0.01% makes it worth owning.

I know it's bad. I just love the boats. That, and the fact that the black guy actually gets pretty fair treatment, which is nice for 1943.

Actually, I noticed a while ago that SH5 was missing something, but until now I just hadn't been able to put my finger on it. But it's now bleedingly obvious: SH5 needs a love triangle! When I return to port and walk off the u-boat I want to see a German version of Anne Baxter (circa 1943) and I want to FEEL the awkward tension between me and my XO when we both lay eyes on her.

Without this level of immersive realism, the SH series will surely die a dismal death only to be relegated to Wii consoles worldwide.

UBISOFT PRESS RELEASE, 1 JAN 2011

"UBI proudly announces that the well renown Silent Hunter series will make a decissive step further in the saga. Our largely ignored female public doesn't have to worry anymore, we have listened to them and our new product will be designed accordingly. We produly present "Silent Hunter 6: Love in the Atlantic" where Das Boot meets The Sims.

-----Features:-----

-Stalk the girls around the boat, and prepare your torpedoes for the action
-Collect prestige points to earn the exclusive "Dinner with the Captain"
-Unlock new areas, like the swimming pool, the disco, and the suite with jacuzzi
-Interact with a realistic crew, having to pay for each drink or service an abusive sum

-Ensure the wealthness of your crew and passengers using your exclusive pills against seasickness
-Start from a dozen of different points in the boat, and enjoy the dynamic campaign, with different passengers each time
-Manage the boat's casino and plunder your best friends online (Up to 38 players on the roulette!)

Special bonus: The "Commander's edition" will ship with an authentic "Old Seawolf Cap" and a matching coloured (Pink and white) bikini (girls) or tanga (boys).

And look, from the , notice who the first guest star is!

Freaky!

It's meant to be - we must have Anne Baxter cameo in SH5.

Halston, Bob Mackie, and Gloria Vanderbilt in the same episode. My brain exploded from 70s overload.

I guess so - the great secret was that the captain really was a former u-boat kaleun. Just look at his name...Von Steubing!

Throw in an expansion module for the guys featuring a favorite computer game character from the 1990s and we have a multi-decade nostalgia hit.
