More highly detailed polygon models and newer graphic effects will be there which aren't implemented in SH3 and aren't to be recreated by modding.
Things you can do are ramp up the screen resolution and max out your graphic driver's settings in terms of anti aliasingand ansitropic filtering for example. But even that wouldn't produce any stunning graphics withh SH3 in a few years anymore.
For that you need an up to date graphics enginge to take all the nice things into account which will develop in the next few years  . |
You're right..but I don't have $6,000 right now to blow on this machine to play SH3. Darn!! :0

I could be wrong but SH4 is not a DirectX 10 game either. How many more sub games do you anticipate in the next 2-3 years? I don't anticipate any.
It may be five years or longer before another sub game comes along using the next graphics engine.

Those prizes on the above link are so high because it's a bunch of high end stuff you see there which will decrease in costs relatively quick. As always.
For example if you compare the actual prizes for prozessors, the most actual variants can be 800€ (and perhaps $) and the next smaller variants can be significantly cheaper. So I never understand why one should be the real high end stuff instead of waiting a few month.
But to get the most out of SH3's graphics you surely don't need one of those high end machines which cost you several 1000 bucks.
I'm running it smoothly (~50fps) on a AMD Athlon XP 2000+ with 1GB RAM and an ATI Radeon 9800. So this system is quite outdated too compared to the common ~900bucks complete-PC's you can buy everywhere.
And what I meant about the SH3 graphic was that it will be outdated compared to computer games in general not only in the subsim or simulation genre.
And this won't be changed by modding.
