Which version of SH3 is best?

Elmer Kosterman · 01-25-08, 04:44 PM

Hello,

I've learned a lot about Silent Hunter III from this forum and am ready to buy a copy. There are a few versions available at amazon. They are:

SH3 (Software Pyramide) €3,93
SH3 (DVD-ROM) €4,97
SH3 (DVD-ROM) Ubisoft eXclusive €5,73
SH3 Gold Edition (DVD-ROM) Ubisoft eXclusive €7,99

My computer is:

Windows Vista Home Premium
32 bit
NVIDIA GeForce 8400 GS graphic card

Could somebady tell me which version would be best for me?

Thanks in advance.

The gold edition includes the two X1 add-ons.

Here is a link to SH3 Gold Edition:
www.amazon.de/Silent-Hunter-Gold-DVD-ROM-eXclusive/dp/B000QEKIRU/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8&s=gateway&qid=1201300323&s r=8-1

If it doesn't work, go to www.amazon.de (Germen site) and search for silent hunter 3.

Thanks for the replies.

I shouldnt bother with the gold edition if you plan on using GWX
The extras you are paying for will be deleted and replaced by the installer ( GWX )

:rotfl:

If any of the others have the no dvd as standard then thats a good option
No starforce or messing around with the disc
Oh and later discs are already patched to 1.4 so take note of that

Welcome aboard

Later discs arent released by Ubisoft
AFAIK there are at least 3 other companies that have released SH3
