In the earlier games you were effectively a bodyless entity that flicked instantly between different stations (sonar, periscope, damage control etc.) using keyboard shortcuts that made sure you always had a chance to be where the excitement was. Unlike the previous games in the series, Silent Hunter 5 is played out from two very different perspectives. The finished version of the game, subtitled Battle of the Atlantic, can only be played from the perspective of a U-Boat captain, and is even more restrictive than the early games in the series, as it only simulates one submarine, the Type VII. Unfortunately, somewhere along the way the game was trimmed down. When Silent Hunter 5 was first announced Ubisoft promised that for the first time you'd be able to control both German U-Boats and Allied submarines in the Atlantic and the Mediterranean. One such game is the submarine simulator Silent Hunter 5, the latest instalment in Ubisoft's long running franchise that's origins can be traced all the way back to 1996. With the endless moaning on the internet about ' PC gaming dying' and 'PC devs selling out' it's all too easy to forget that there are still many PC exclusives being released.
