VISIT A FANTASTIC NAVAL WARFARE SITE |
Rebound Readers speak their mind This article first appeared in the May 2002 issue of Computer Games Magazine. Harpooned I just knew I liked your magazine, that it's geared toward the serious PC gamer, when I opened it this week and was reading about mods, particularly when you mentioned that the Naval Warfare Simulations Group was working on Silent Hunter II and Fighting Steel mods. I was already smiling big-time when I saw it, Harpoon 3 for the Mac, with a Windows version in the works. I was a Beta tester for the Windows version and I highly recommend this to any who love Naval Simulations. The amount of detail available is unmatched, and since your own site has Harpoon 4 stretching to the end of the year, it is the only game in town for a while. There is a rather dedicated community on the net called Harpooners and they have many databases and scenarios available that will be compatible with this Windows version. If anyone on your staff remembers how the original game would slow on the large scenarios because of slow processors, imagine what it is like on a 1.4GHz Thunderbird with the stability of Windows XP. That alone should grab some interest, but if not take into account that multiplayer could very well be an option as well as nuclear weapons for some good old Cold War battles. It would be nice if you would review this game in your magazine, what have you got to loose? This was a small group of people that helped make this possible especially the lone programmer, Jesse Spears. This gentleman is what gaming is all about! Ethan Atsinger |
