The new non-sub platforms add a tremendous amount of interest and works wonders for the multiplayer mode. I hope to see add-ons with even more surface units. [Mar. 05]90Pelit (Finland)

And even though the game is rich with tension (certainly enough to offset the mediocre graphics), unless you’re at her majesty’s pleasure, you probably won’t have the time.73PC Zone UK
Gives you a lot of things to do, but it’s unlikely to light the old sim fire the way you might remember it. [July 2005, p.64]70Computer Games Magazine
A hardcore sim for the truly hardcore sim fan.70Gamers’ Temple
