Just wondering if anyone has played this yet, and if so, what do you think? How does it stack up against SH3?

haven't played it myself but one neh point was the use of the sh3 engine. If it used a new engine then I may have considered purchasing it. You could try subsim.com as I know they have a lot of posts regarding for and against buying the game.

Why are the eyes of those guys so huge they are on a par with Japanese cartoons?

It must be a Hentai submarine.

I wonder what brings SH4 that SH3 hasn't? Except for some graphics gimmicks, of course.

I thought it was just an odd perspective for those eyes to be so big but the other guy in the light brown uniform has huge eyes too. Those eyes look so freaky.

Men on a submarine deep in the blue sea where monstrous creatures hide from the light? Sounds like the making of gay tentacle porn.

Buggy. Lots of bugs. Check the subsim forums for a really good list of all the bugs, and some workarounds/mods to make it playable.

Thank you. I have had enough bugs in games for one year, this one can wait until the inevitable budget (Patched) release.

Psaw. I'm just worried about the balance in Pacific.
If all guys command american subs, there will be no more targets very soon - some kamikaze swimmers perhaps.
