I miss - oh, how I MISS - playing my submarine games.

If there really is a solution, I would be one happy camper.

Thank you, folks!

If you want to dedicate nearly EVERY system resource to SH3 you will need to bootcamp. You can run parallels but just remember you are also running a program inside a program so you may not be able to run a heavy mod profile.
You CAN run SH3 on windows 8.1 pro. Just don't use the default install directory and yes the copy from ubisoft will work
