Of course you're right. In about 4 or 5 months everyone will be gaga for SH4. And then the REAL mods will start to be formulated. The true modding community can't really size up what needs doing until the game reaches its finished retail state and everyone can beat it to death with more legitimate SH3 comparisons.
By then I'll probably be onboard too.
But I don't think I'll ever get used to the idea of a name for my boat. I mean honestly! Is ther anything sexier than a random series of digits? None of this Trout non sense.
