    4.0 out of 5 stars So far this game is pretty neat, February 4, 2007
    By Todd Justman "audio book reader" (Charlotte, NC United States) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)      
    Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    I just installed this yesterday and started getting into it. Installation itself went smoothly. The game tells you upfront what kind of performance to expect given your computer's capabilities. As for the game there's 11 training missions that cover the controls, although since they teach the keystroke commands I forgot some of them quickly. The best thing so far is that the interface is quite simple to control all the different vessels. For someone who is interested in playing a submarine game but doesn't want to spend 40 hours learning how a real sub works (e.g. Silent Service III) this is the game for you. What can be considered both a plus and minus, an example of this approach is that the sub has 4 choices of depth: surface, periscope, deep, and too deep to spot but too deep to stay long. Bombing has been simplified as well. However, as a real-time strategy game I expect some learning curve involved, although it seems straightforward.

    The realism is there. You get vivid depictions of ships, planes, and islands. There are crew members milling about your ship while you blast away at the enemy. The rudders and ailerons move on your plane.

    I haven't played multiplayer but I am concerned that we have to use Gamespy exclusively. Also, there's a third party service that keeps the game updated. Not thrilled about installing that either. We'll see how it goes.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Fun but over simplified, February 14, 2007
    By Nathan E. Gargus "natedog_mp" (Bryn Mawr, PA United States) - See all my reviews

    Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
    I was expecting a more open ended game not a scripted campaign. I would rather this game be a little more like the silent hunter game or like pacific storm in that there is a strategic mode and more open ended engagements. Also, the interfaces are over simplifed and using main guns on ships is very tacky, that interface really needs to be rethought. Dogfighting and bombing is fun though. The graphics are superb I just think they should have put more time into the user interfaces for the ships and subs, it seems to be more intended for kids and the xbox, the pc version really should have more to it.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Debunking the misconceptions, May 8, 2007
    Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    [...] I'm here to clear some things up.
    It's your fault if it doesn't load. Your system must be capable of handling it. Read the required specs before buying. My computer is 2 1/2 years old and plays it just fine. I did put in an extra half gig of RAM and a $[...] (at the time) graphics card in it when I bought it. Still, it's 2 1/2 years old. Any "state of the art" computer should be able to handle it, if mine can. If you're still not sure, download the free multiplayer demo to try out your system's ability ro run it. I was unsure about mine, so that's what I did. My computer handled the demo just fine, with medium to high settings. I bought the game and have had some rare, minor stuttering but nothing more.
    There's a profile you can enter to play all the levels, if you suck at the game. It's not too hard to figure out what it is but a Google search will dig it up for you, if you have no sense of the obvious.
    The game is short. However, it's done well and you can ramp up the difficulty if you like. If you breeze through it on rookie, don't go thinking you've accomplished anything. There are also awards, in the form of virtual medals, to shoot for. Furthermore, the challenge missions will give nearly everyone but warfare strategy masterminds a hard time. It can be fun facing seemingly insurmountable odds. It can also be very frustrating. Sailing right into the heart of a carrier force, commanding the mighty Yamato, is a fun excercise. I only wish you could command some American Iowa Class battleships.
    Using the main guns on capital ships is fun. I'm not into excessive micromanagement. If I was, I would have joined the Navy and had a go at this stuff firsthand. I am somewhat interested in the Pacific Theater of WWII as my father served in the Pacific just after WWII (in the Army Air Corps Engineers). As a child, I was fascinated by his stories of the aftermath wreckage he saw. It's nice to have a game based on the Pacific Theater that doesn't completely stink. If you're into micromanagement to the point that you wish to control everything, down to making sure every sailor has a fresh pair of underwear, don't bother with this game. If you like action games with a decent, but not overwhelming, dose of strategy, this game is for you. If you're remotely interested in both the Pacific Theater of WWII and video games, this is pretty much a must-buy. There really aren't many other good options.
