I agree. I certainly wouldn't buy a new computer based solely on the weight of peoples' recommendation's here for one game. Might be a very expensive $1050 or whatever if the OP follows the "I agree

"s but ends up not liking it himself. Much better to have a personal reason for upgrading (I upgraded my computer in Feb because I was sick of my daughter nagging me for one...), and then determining whether or not to stick with SH3 or go to SH5. At least then if SH5 "sux", you feel like you've only wasted $50, not $1050 (...so I have no regrets not installing SH5).

Having said that, I think a few people upgraded their computers just for SH5 and are happy, so to each their own.
