Stop Acting Like Your Parents And Get Vista Already

8:56 pm PC Gaming Industry

When Vista came out it was buggy and annoying: programs were not compatible, popups to “allow” your programs to run appeared every 2 seconds, etc. So people decided that Vista was no good and stuck with XP. I however did not. I continued to use Vista and after a few months of updates and patches, Vista and I had become quite good friends. Of course by this time rumors had spread that Vista was a load of crap and now even people who had never even used it would rather die than ‘upgrade to Vista’. Here’s my message to you: “Stop acting like you’re 90 years old and open you mind to change and progress.” Remember when browser tabs came out and we thought it was annoying and weird…imagine living without tabs today. Change is good, and progress will never come without troubleshooting the bugs (of course, this should have been done by Microsoft, but that’s in the past)…… Anyways, Vista provides support for DirectX10, looks amazing, and has many useful features that after a few weeks of useage you won’t be able to live without. If you’re a PC gamer and have avoided Vista because of the rumors, it’s time to reconsider.

    Yeah, Vista has had loads of negative press, but as you say a lot of it seems to come from people who’ve had absolutely no experience with it! Like all new OS it’s had its problems, but I’ve not had compatability problems with games very often, and mostly they can be solves simply by running the game in XP SP2 compatability mode.

    DX10? Hmm… I think I need a better graphics card for that anyway! :-D
