I can't agree with those who say "Don't buy a whole new computer just for a game", mainly because I bought the one I have now just so I could play SH3. Everything else I do could be done on the rig I bought in 1998.

I would have bought a new computer already, but I had to put money into other projects, so I'm still waiting. And I need a newer rig to play SH3 with all the mods that have come along, let alone SH5.

As for SH5, it is better than SH3 in more ways than just graphics, but if it was just SH3 with the new graphics I'd buy it. Unfortunately, while there are improvements, it is incomplete as far as boats you can run and length of time you can play into the war. Still, the only thing keeping me from buying it is the DRM, which requires a constant connection. If you can live with that and its other failings, the price is certainly right.
