True, and I agree: I have very fond memories of both. But the original question was "which one is better to play now"? With that criterion in mind Silent Hunter still gets my vote.

Possibly a more interesting and closely fought poll would I suspect be Silent Hunter vs Silent Hunter II it would be interesting to see if the graphics of the 3D sequel and it's Atlantic environment held sway against the original game's general brilliance.
No contest. SHII was modded into a great game, especially multiplayer, but its lack of dynamic career mode leaves it forever scarred as a mediocre sim at best.
