Ok, so I'm kinda missing playing any WWII stuff lately (the last such game I played was CoD: World at War, which I beat like 3 months ago).  I was thinking of picking up Silent Hunter: Wolves of the Pacific, or perhaps maybe one of those tactical shooters set in Europe.

Recommendations?  I know CdM was playing Silent Hunter at one point, but IIRC it was really buggy when it was released and I dunno if that shit got fixed.  It's $9.99 on Steam ATM.

Did you take a look at that Ubi soft WWII collection at steam ?

or the whole silent hunter collection is $14.99

Not interested in the collection as I don't want the flight sims (I only like 'civilian' flight sims) nor Silent Hunter III as I feel morally conflicted playing as the Germans sinking British and American ships  :blush:

I was mostly kidding about SH 3, but I much prefer killing Japs to killing Anglo-Saxons.  :cool:

Here's my preference of WWII races to kill in order:

Japs and Russians - utter barbarians
French and Italians - lazy papists
British - BO-RING
Germans - basically good dudes who for some godawful reason let a closeted homofag Austrian boss them around and do stupid shit
Americans - USA!  USA!  USA!

Personally, I like to kill Germans.  Especially Nazis.  Nazis ain't got no humanity, and they must be destroyed.
I love being Russians and Japs, though.  Crazy fuckers.

I heard good thing about Hell's Highway.

Caliga, get the Ubi WWII collection, give the flightsim away to me.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

:blink:

The Ubisoft WWII package is only a penny more than the BIA package and includes the Silent Hunter games too.

Ok, so how close to the actual gameplay is this vid?

Real close.  I played the first BiA game, Road to Hill 30 and it was a lot of fun; I got the second one but haven't played it much, I kept dying on one of the first missions and lost interest. :Embarrass:

Well, I went ahead and bought the collection, but I don't see any way to do that.  But if you know how, tell me how and I'll do it.
