Horse and I - Bat for Lashes

You must get Brawl if you have a Wii, it is awesome.

Exactly what "bugs" are you talking about? The issue you brought up in the original topic affected XP as well as Vista, and you have provided no other examples.

Awww... I just got around to getting MOTB - and now there is going to be another one? How soon do you think it's going to be released?

Re: Your Brains - Johnathan Coulton

O RLY? I have had no problems running any XP software on my Vista PC so far, and I have yet to see you actually back up any of your anti-Vista rumormongering.

I have not had any problems with any of the games that I have tried to play on Vista, nor have any other applications given me any issues. But than again, I would not really recommend you upgrade unless you want the newer features of Vista and have a PC that is capable of running it. If you do decide to upgrade, you should make sure any programs that you want to use are compatable -I'll make another topic with a list of all the main programs that work or can be tweaked to work- and take that information into your calculations.

A mature "Teen" game would be ok, although I would suspect that this would be best as a "Mature" or "Adults Only" game.

I have Vista on one PC and XP on another, and so far I have been happy with both of them. Of course, I actually did some research and found out what would be needed to run Vista, and some games, properly - and managed to get something that works for less than $1,000. The minimum system requirements for Vista Basic are much lower than those for any other version* -disregarding the starter version for developing countries- and the recommended specs are even higher**. I would suspect that the people who are yelling about SP1 do not have the necessary hardware, or did not bother to check if their drivers were compatible with the update. * 800 MHz 512 MB RAM DirectX 9 capable N/A 20 GB 15 GB CD-ROM Vs. 1.0 GHz 1 GB RAM DirectX 9 capable GPU with Hardware Pixel Shader v2.0 and WDDM 1.0 driver support 128 MB RAM supports up to 2,756,000 total pixels (e.g. 1920

Well, Microsoft has finally released the first service pack for Windows Vista - and now users must decide if they want to do a complete installation or wait until Windows Update delivers the Service Pack in smaller segments. It has been confirmed that initial release retains the compatibility issues with several leading brands of antivirus and antispyware* programs, as well as other software, although most of the developers have issued either a SP1 compatible version or a patch to fix the issue within their existing software. At the moment, I have decided to wait and upgrade after I figure out some issues I have been having with my graphics drivers, but, once those are resolved, I plan on upgrading to SP1.
