It has no value over XP that I can see. The US Federal Gov't is buying into Vista either...no economic gain in doing so. DirectX 10....seems a little contrived to me and the need to keep dollars in the pockets of the computer making world. Furthermore, most genre have been covered with previous games. Nothing really new happening.
Then again, if the game looks really good I could be persuaded to get a new computer for it   |
Yes this Vista thing is worrying me for later.........as when eventually I upgrade I was told that I'll have to go with Vista......not sure I want that, like be forced into it? I mean won't XP work with DX10? I don't know much about this but it is a concern.......as at present alot of games I have I have been to the forums and there are countless posts about Vista not performing with their games etc and many other niggles with it........ok so alot of bugs will get ironed out but dear o dear not sure I like this
I remember buying my ATI X800 Pro getting the PC brought back to me that night and going online for the latest drivers and what was I greeted with? yes an advert for ATI's new 512MB card
......coming out the very next day
