SH3 & Windows 8

Too soon to tell. Or atleast to worry about. They do try to keep compatibility with older applications/games so there is hope. But you never known what feature they come up with that might go against what the Ubisoft devs expected of Windows XP.

If MS creates an OS that's not backwards compatible, you can expect to see it gathering dust on the shelves. Only die hard fanatics will be upgrading if none of their software is going to work.

Exaclty, they will never see any corporate sales if the older software won't work. If the older stuff ain't broke, don't fix it. I still use XP for that reason. Cheaper too, with 4 licenses floating around here, each new machine I build gets XP, replacing the old machine which gets a version of linux.
