MCV has the latest mea culpa from Microsoft Games Studio on their failure to live up to past promises to support the PC as a gaming platform. "There’s been a fair bit of criticism aimed at Microsoft that we were spending a lot of our focus on console, and we need to be putting resources behind PC as well," MGS GM Dave Luehmann tells them. "Other companies should look to Microsoft for leadership, but I’m not sure they do. It is our job to lead the way on PC. And in some ways we are doing that and in other ways we are not. So we need to step up." He repeats their recent announcements of PC initiatives, and promises further progress going forward: "We are putting some real investment and big IPs behind the Windows platform. We’ve spoken of the first three, Fable III, Age of Empires Online and Microsoft Flight. However we are not going to stop there."

If we're delving into bogus Vista-exclusives, Halo 2 is an even better example. A 2004 XBOX game released on PC in 2007, in a world full of HL2 and Farcry, just so happened to *NEED* Vista's superior features! That is until a fan, with no access to the source-code, released a binary patch allowing XP play within a month or two. Oops. Agreed. That was idiotic. It's from the era of DX8-class GPUs, yet somehow Halo 2 not only "required" DX10, but ran dog slow on most any system at launch and didn't even look that much better than its Xbox counterpart (which, while good by original Xbox standards, was no real looker by the standards of PC FPS games from 2004, much less 2007). |
