Hehe, that would have REALLY been disappointing. No, what I expected was an upgrade to SH3 that went a bit beyond graphics and which added many more of the sorts of things the mod community did for SH3. But SH4 is not that. Basically, as far as I can see so far, SH4 is SH3 with improved graphics, with an expanded gramophone giving a sort of radiomod/newsmod functionality that the mod community gave to SH3 and without the 3D compartment interface that came as standard in SH3.

I just feel the game should have been more. But it's first impressions right now, and SH3 was also a bit of a pig that needed some heavy-duty lipstick applied to it. So we'll see what the future brings.
