Default Sickest way to play this game!!

I just hooked my computer up to my TV in my movie room..

57" Samsung Plasma, with a wireless mouse and keyboard.. The rez is 1024x768 which IMO is just fine for this game.

The best part though... I have it going through an Onkyo s6300 7.1 sound system

and let me tell you! I am in AWeee..

Talk about immersion!! When the depth charges hit, the ENTIRE room shakes, but even better, I have shakers in the couch and it works perfect, I can set it to rumble during certain bass frequencies

Theyre like this

In anycase, just thought I would brag..

Now its back to my sub..

BTW 1943 now and planes are EVERYWHERE !!!

Bragging is good. I live in an apartment, so my sound system is a good pair of headphones. I do have a new 28" monitor, and three feet away from me works pretty sell, especially when compared to my old 19" CRT.

So, have fun while you can, because the death screen is the same no matter what the size.
