Summary: An entertaining and fast submarine shooter
Review: For a ($$$) budget game, Steel Tide was more fun to play than most of the recent "blockbuster" game titles that are heavy on the fancy graphics and light on the core gameplay. The game was simple, looked good, and was easy to pick up. The developers also wisely made sure that it was incredibly satisfying to blast stuff with the big howitzer-type cannons. After playing Steel Tide, and Operation Blockade before it, I can't wait for the next Infogrames budget masterpiece!

Summary: Very fun!
Review: I have always liked sub games but sometimes get annoyed by the simulation stuff. This is the only arcade-like sub game I know of and it is amazing! Why has no one done this before?!?! The controls are pretty intuitive aftera bit of a learning curve and so much fun... the effects and graphics are really good and the sound is too. I have really gotten in to this game and I recommend it. FUN!!...

Summary: A further review...
Review: I haven't played the game now in months. Had to quit because I sunk all the battlewagons and subs and destroyed all the shore artillery, but can't figure out HOW to get out of the damned lock! But, boys and girls - as a former Destroyer sailor, I have to say I really love this game! The ships are detailed accurately and are a real blast to battle. The only thing that bugged me with this game was that when battling other subs, I'd hit it 4-5 times before it sunk! THEIR torpedoes, on the other hand, were deadly and only took one torpedoe to sink me! I would say this game is definitely worth your money and is hours of fun! The problem I had originally in trying to play the game on Windows XP Home Edition, was in the drivers. I had to download a new driver and BINGO! the game worked fine! So if you're having that problem, go online and see about finding an updated or new driver. My former shipmates would be annoyed that I had so much fun sinking Destroyers... But, they're called "Tin Cans" for a reason... It doesn't take much to sink one... Buy the game and have fun! I highly recommend it!

Summary: THIS GAME SUX
Review: I like most games from Infogrames (i.e. Tiger Hunt, Deadly Dozen, etc.), but this game is horrible! I bought it thinking it was an arcade version of Silent Hunter (Sub warfare in the Pacific) - boy was I wrong!! More of an altered universe around the same time as WWII ;(

Summary: An entertaining and fast submarine shooter
Review: I love naval games, but sub games have traditionally been very slow and boring to me. I was very pleased to find this game to be extremly fast paced and exciting. The sub controls are more like a FPS than a sim type game, not too complicated. Great graphics, tons of action and stuff to blow up make this game one of my current favs.

Summary: Can't say much, it won't run on XP like they say it will...
Review: I read the reviews on this game and it sounded like fun. I bought it and tried repeatedly to get it to run on Windows XP HE, but it keeps sticking or locking up... I heard it was supposed to be a great FPS type, but, who knows? If you really like gaming, don't use XP! Half my games that played on Windows 98SE won't play on XP, despite the so-called "compatibility wizard"... I'll keep trying to get this one to work as it has a lot of potential...so I hear... But, I'll stay away from any Infogrames games after this...
