Silent Hunter is a game of submarine warfare in the ancient days of yore when subs fired something that wasn’t a barrage of world-ending nuclear missiles. Silent Hunter Online is the free to play version, with a dynamic campaign and possibly simultaneous multiplayer that could make wolf packs a reality. Rock, Paper, Shotgun has the story.
I’ll be truthful, I haven’t played a submarine game since Microprose’s Red Storm Rising. Anything new in the genre?
