True enough. I've enjoyed playing SH5, despite its flaws. The mods have only made it better as time has gone on, and there is fun to be had with the game.

i reckon i'll give it a shot, just hope my 7800GTX is still up to the task.
didn't bat an eye whilst playing COD:MW2 so i reckon it should still run sh5

cheers

Yes.

But not right now. Wait tell.....

- DRM goes away
- price drops
- the 1.5 to 2 years worth of modding to fix the game has transpired.

In other words, wait tell hit its the bargain bin. I spent 55 bucks on this game, and i've barely got two weeks of play out of it before i shelved it out of boredom and disgust.

My 2 cents.

Bargain bin? You mean like under $10. It's only $20 bucks now. I think that is the lowest it will be for awhile. Me, I'm still waiting on DRM to be removed.

Prepare to wait for awhile. DRM isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

I'm pretty sure they'll release SH5 from DRM eventually. But hey, i could be wrong, that's just me guessing.

hmm, DRM removal? i'm not sure UBI are big on that, they do have a history of just ignoring people on that subject.
granted they broke the mold when they told us how to crack SH3 but i reckon thats simply because so many people still play it and windows 7 and star force are completely incompatable...

had to buy sniper elite again due to star force too...
