If you want to play an improved SH5 it seems from reading the SH5 forum that you will have to spend a fair amount of time installing mods and then editing files yourself as TDW has yet to get his "magnum opus" megamod fully tested out as working - but damn are they working hard to fix all the known issues and add new/more realistic features!
Cool! Its a shame customers are the ones that need to do the devs work... and I'm glad such persons devote their personal time to achieve such feat.

Respect!

I hope they also change the torps explosions... I don't get why they look so... dull... when compared to previous versions of SH. I mean they worked hard on graphics and eye candy and yet they nerfed the torp's detonation animation...

I'll not tell you my preference for fear of being accused of biaisness

Try all three, go to the mods section of the forum for each and then you'll be in a better position to make an informed choice.

What's most important is enjoying yourself in/during the process.

Good Luck

Ah, I completely forgot about SH3 resolution limitation. Will I be able to run the game 1920x1200 and in Windows 7 x64 bit?

That's still a bit of Achilles heel in Sh3. You can use both a hi-res kit that enables higher res but with stretched screen, or a mod that allows true widescreen support, albeit only with 1366x768.

Do a search in the mods forum, it's all there

if it is any help, I run SH3 GWX on 64 bit Windows Seven with resolution 1680x1050. Works fine.

I have all three games, but SH3 remains my favourite. However, I am an eternal beginner, so my opinion is not worth much

Of course it is...and your choice is even more so
