I've been spoiled by SHIII! I cant play any other game now

After 2 1/2 months of completing a patrol a night, I finished the war as a type VII Kaleun. I vowed not to do my type IX career until GWX comes out. Meanwhile, I tried to play a few other games. Lets haul out the older games and take a play.

1. Destroyer Command: way too old and chunky
2. Enigma, Rising Tide: Nice but....130 torpedoes...caucasian please! Plus it seems that all the merchant shipping is tankers. Nice idea but they needed to flesh it out some more.
3. Dangerous Waters: Still a little mickey mouse looking and I find it too easy to complete my objectives as the subs are too quiet, far too well armed with very long range weapons and excellent defences. It's just not the same.

Flight sims...they seem just too fast for me now. I like the nice and steady pace of a submarine sim.

4E games cant hold my interest. Theyre too abstract. I need to hear waves crashing over the bow....

I dont even like the ocean to boot. But now I'm hopelessly hooked on subsims.

Being addicted is a good thing.

Anything else out there that I missed?
