Will Vista Run Your Games?
Wednesday, May 31st, 2006
Beta 2. It’s a landmark. It’s the point where, historically, upcoming Windows releases have been 
stable and feature-rich enough that testers could use it all day, every day. Sure, there will be some bugs and quirks, but no showstoppers that would make you run the old OS all the time and only pop into the beta for specific tests. This is a critical tipping point for operating systems, because if the people making it and the testers at large can’t use it every day, they can’t really find all the problems that will crop up for normal users upon release.
Windows Vista just hit the Beta 2 milestone, and it’s frankly too early for us to confidently say you can use it (on a non-critical machine) all day for all your normal tasks. But there was one thing we’ve wanted to check for a long time, and had to keep telling ourselves, "it’s just too early." How well will our games run on Vista? Are there going to be major compatibility problems? Will the performance stink? Will Vista Run Your Games?
