SH3 DRM I can forgive, a badly-written and sloppy program is better than an actively repellent system like SH5.

Especially since there are DRM-free versions readily available now.

Uboats?? Man, I am way behind the ball game. I'd always assumed I was in command of a team of German contractors aboard a prototype 688i.

SH3 was more about you-boot than a U-boat, but seriously folks the modders never gave up and it became a classic way to at least try to be a subsim captain.

Ubisoft will not go down as long as they have the consoles covered ... too many people of the console age purchase a title without searching for the pros and cons.

I finally purchased an X-box 360, but I get tired of the scene lag not to mention the lesser graphic's vs PC machines.

I just play it when it's too hot to turn on my PC

I've even got some really funny insider SH3 stories, I've told a few people but I'd never print them here. Ask me at the subsim shin-dig, I might tell you for a good laugh.

Of course you would... with proper motivation I'm sure.


As you can see, Mr. McBee, I have abducted your beloved dog. He is in good health - for now. *mwuha! mwhaha! mwuhahahahaha haha haaaa!*



See how mortified he is? Hand over the information, or the dog gets it!
