An observation about SH3

nutworld · 08-15-13, 06:57 AM

As I was loading in SH3 today, I noticed on the monitor the words

"Copyright @2005"

I've seen it every time, but paid little attention.

Think about that for a second.

There are MANY, MANY, MANY of us who are playing a simulation created 8 years ago.
Due in MOST parts to the MODs and such, that have been created to make this "game" better.

But I still see many people who stumble across SH3 in bargin bins and pick it up, at a low price, install it, and LIKE it enough to find out more information...

Then they do a little web research and end up here at the Subsim Forums...and start tweaking their installation with all the wonderful mods.

I guess I just can't even begin to imagine the number of games that have been created since 2005, let alone the number of man-hours involved in creating them, and here we are 8 years later, still playing SH3.

To each and everyone of you that have invested so much time and energy making this "good game" a GREAT simulation.

I say THANK YOU.

Couldn't agree more.

Probably my favorite pc game of all time.

I totally agree.
In fact I had the stock SH3 already from 2006 and came across Subsim by accident.
Of course , I stayed!

I played SH2 in 2003 on a friend's laptop, in 2010 I bought SH3 thinking that was the game I'd played and I've been here ever since.
