Hey Beery. Sorry but I edited my reply a bit late hoping you hadn't read it yet.

So I'll add what I added above.

I know there were 2 months in which there was a sim column about SH3 aside from the Scoops and Review (the review made me buy it). Also there are more sims that SH3. And despite what you think many people consider racing simulators an actual sim.

As for the fact that you paid for it meaning they owe it to you to talk about what you like it unfortunately doesn't work that way. It might be unfortunate that a game like SH3 being a commercial flop compared to games like HL2 means SH3 gets less attention but the fact remains that a magazine appeals to a mass rather than a minority. That they included a scoop and a review is pretty good considering the fact that no one I know bought it, even after I said its good and only $20 at Futureshop.

I saw 2 colums about SH3 in PC Gamer. Thats alot. I don't know what more you can expect. And that they are actually aware of the community enough to say that the user mods are both better and the originals says they have actually played the game. They get mountains of games put on their desks every month. SH3 was a long time ago.

It's called PC Gamer, not PC Simmer. We don't get all we want. We get what sells their mags and now and then we get a nod our way.

BTW don't tell any of your racing sim buddies about how they aren't sims. Ouch. That could be bad.
