Jane's Naval Warfare Collection (688(i), Fleet Command, F/A-18)

Enter 688(i) Hunter/Killer, where most of your time is filled by plotting courses, reading manuals, and attempting to pass undetected in open waters. While this is very realistic, it isn't the most exciting game in the world.

Fortunately, 688(i) comes with a "create your own scenario" mode, where you can populate the ocean with cruise ships, fishing boats, and other attack subs to fill with torpedos.

This is an enjoyable game for those who have the time and patience to learn the game.


by far the best simulation pack   April 22, 2003

I bought this pack at EB games, it was hard to find by it only costed me 19.99. The F/A-18 simulation is the best of all, excellent graphics, physics and flight model, although it was created years ago. I've played many other flight/sub such as F-18 korea F-18 precision strike fighter, but jane's F/A-18 still porcess the best phyiscs/mission builder/graphics and espically tranning. The foucs of this naval pack is the flight simulator, and it is a must for any combat flight simer. O, it works on win XP too! just get the 2 patches for FA-18.

I haven't played f18 at all and I have played Fleet Command some and it is ok, but 688i is the reason you should buy this pack. It is the best most intense game I have ever played. Not so much in single player, but multiplayer rocks! I've had some GREAT battles that lasted for hours online and some that lasted a few minutes. Nothing beats playing 688i against a real live human being.

Go to Seawolves.com to find some people to play with and that will teach you how to play better too. Its a great online community/family. They also have people to play with in Fleet command and F18 as weel as many other military games.


688 (I)   November 6, 2002

I don't care about Fleet Comand nor F/A 18; I'm just interested in submarines, and 688(I) is the best sub simulator I've ever seen or played with. Just FANTASTIC, at least for sumarine fanatics like me; I must say that for people used to play action games, 688(I) IS NOT A GAME, but a simulator (and a very real one, indeed), so using it may appears a slow matter or little fun, specially playing real time, with endless aproaches to enemy ships or subs, trying to catch a bit of sound with your passive sonar, hour after hour... THE REAL THING.
