Simply one of the best submarine sims out there - the immersion factor is immense and has not really been outdone since. i hope it come to gog because the steam version of this game needs you to remove some old DRM stuff that gets in the way of playing it.
Best Das Boot adaptation for PC Its a simulator, but has enough action elements to make it more accessible and fun for the average joe. Music, action cameras for special events like torpedo launching and depth charging. Would be cool to see here for the sake of preservation and minor performance improvements
