Hey up folks,

Why isnt there a new member thread pinned so we can introduce ourselves?

If there is and ive missed it then 'PANTS'!!!!!

Any way, just wanted to say hi. Ive been playing SH3 since it first came out....actualy thats a lie, coz when it first came out my pc couldnt cope with it, so I had to wait till i eventually upgraded and got a pc that could cope with it...only took 12 months, so no harm done.

Not being a great one for searching t'internet I never knew anything about Modifications or patches or any of those strange concoctions, I always thought what you bought was what you got.....how wrong was I

So, one has done some reading and investigating and has downloaded pacthes and Mods and it turns out that my 3 yr old pc just isnt upto the speed required to be able to partake in anything except what I get on the stock disc.

I blame steve at work for informing me about mods for the game and getting me all excited about a potential new SH3 gaming experience, when in reality all I did was spend 15 hours in total downloading, deleting, loading and patching for absolutly no reason what so ever.

So its back to the stock version for me. I cant justify spending pennies on upgrades when SWMBO is in need of more shoes. tut

so come on admin.....pin a newbie thread...let us reveal all
