    OK, I remember playing this game a few (5 or 6) years back... It's a 2D game, it might even have came with the Windows (maybe ME) OS. Basically, you control an yellow submarine, and you're trying to sink other ships that are above you. The ships drop bombs represented by black dots much like the bomb image in minesweeper.

    Anyone know what this game is called and where I can get it?

    EDIT: on second thought, it might have been that you get to control the SHIP, and computer are black submarines... And I remember the yellow ones are ones with bonuses because they move faster than other ones.

    Nope, it's not Yellow Submarine or Magic Schoolbus..

    Here's more detail. It's a very plain game (can be ran on Intel GMA8's). It's in 3rd person view. Submarine can only move left and right, and same goes for everything else...

    It is an updated version of the Game called "DepthCharge" because those are not bombs they are Depth Charges! Now that you know the name maybe google can help? I have the original not your version, good luck!

    Mine is the original so yes b/w it was an arcade game, the kind you put quarters in? Yes left right and all that, I am going to Google it. If you have access to a copy of ME you can pull it off that. But it is the same game, not the version you want but?!!!
