Naval Combat Games?

Battlefield 1942[^] It is, of course, a WWII game, but I think you can download mods that update the weapons/vehicles/boats to more modern versions. The one we used to play was called Desert Combat[^].

Just been watching the Trafalgar fleet review[^] on BBC News 24. It's left me hankering for some naval combat. Can anybody recommend me a good Naval combat game for the PC. Modern warfare (post WWI) prefered but anything that involves ship-to-ship combat would be nice. Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]

My ArticlesJust last week. You're going to need some pretty darn good hardware to run it though. And a nice throttle+joystick if you want to do any flying.

Might I recommend going over to FilePlanet[^] and doing a search ... Also check out GameSpot[^] for the latest in games and whatnot (even without a membership, you should be able to find/read some reviews and information)
