Up Periscope: Silent Hunter V


If you spot something just below the water when you're out at sea, you can bet it's a plastic bag. But when it's not, it's often a gigantic submersible warship. And we know how you like those. Fortunately for you, U-boatisoft send word that their greatest submarine game is back, and now with first-person elements (possibly RPG elements?) where you can walk around your ship as the captain and "become a real leader". There's a trailer, which I've posted below, in which the captain suggests that "this is the strangest game ever." Not quite, but we'll grant it is a little odd. Silent Hunter V game boasts a dynamic campaign, more help for people who found the previous games too hardcore, and some very detailed underwater boats. Developed by Ubisoft Romania, the big bad menace of the seas will be burst from the depths in early 2010, probably. I'm sure we'll fish some more details out of the depths very soon.
