Well, there are people who like submarines and history, and there are gamers, who want nothing more than to play the latest coolest bestest looking eye-fest.

This is why I much prefer The Longest Day to Saving Private Ryan.

My problem is I have been to sea, and I've been to war, and I would rather sail through the harbors than go sink things. So, while I agree that AOD is still the best sub sim available, I have to have my SH fix just so I can relax by dockside and look at the sights.

Also I get jazzed by the whole ships-getting-names thing, and I've spent hundreds of hours cataloging thousands of ships for SH3 Commander, with many of both still to come.

So I'm a graphics whore and I spend all my time working on a mod for SH3. What can I say? That makes me biased.
