    Heres my review:

    Graphics Great

    Water Great

    models done well

    deck gun fun but cheesy

    anti aircraft gun fun for 3 minutes but very unrealistic and cheesy.

    *wish to self **** i wish i got these fps and water graphics in fb aep pf for a moment.

    online play is fun for a couple hours of play, people are on comms anyway so disabling the text type feature is pretty lame. Get mad at the torpedo duds and those who all just strike a convoy and not surface to draw the ships away from those who fired.

    Games offline playlife 3-5 hours max at the most then it becomes as interesting as watching the movie fried green tomatoes for the 4th time with your wife or girlfriend.

    Things they have to do to increase customers interest in shiii online.

    Incorporate PT boats knights of the sea and the new destroyer command together with SHIII to increase the games playlife and interest factor.

    Great review Larry.

    LB... it's a good game and with all the mods it just gets better. Be careful tho as some mods have no readme which is sad. Backup anything you change.... just in case, but you already know that. Make sure you get the 1.2 patch and install it before you add any mods.

    Why would you even ask someone to buy it from you?

    IIRC, EBgames will give you 100% return on any game within 7 days. I'm sure there are a lot of other retailers that have a similar policy, thats why I only buy there now. So if you "Really" got bored of it that fast you should have returned it by now.

    Unless of course you are just Trolling.

    This is the most, dare I say it, immersive, electronic entertainment I have ever played. I simply get lost in the game and play for hours on end. Definitely not for fans of "Short Attention Span Theater".

    Nice review as well...

    I bought it at Compusa. No returns.

    You wouldn't be trolling would you?..
