I don't think that was anything to do with the hardware, SH2 was a very old looking game in comparison to everything else at the time of it's release. Compare SH2 and IL2 which came out the same year. SH2 & DC had poor graphics for 2001. Ultimation had the structure of a good game but the graphics and AI simply were not up to the mark.

What we really need now is a change of pace, we need a "Hunter & hunted" sim with surface and sub in multiplayer done right this time to revitalise the genre and re-capture the attention of the media/ buying pubic.
