Release Candidate U-Turn
Posted August 21st, 2006 at 6:58pm by Electronic Punk
Robert has changed his mind and now thinks release candidate one is going to be great, this makes me want it more and hopefully I can pester NVIDIA to give me some special drivers to play with if they don't release any to the general public. I really want to start playing games on this thing.
I won't be switching my main rig to Windows Vista until I get the final version in my hands - don't get me wrong, I love a good reformat, but I don't like doing it when I just know that I am going to have to do it again. I prefer spur-of-the-moment formattings, the one thats that are so risque as you are never sure if you will remember to backup your mail or favourate and perhaps your documents. I live life on the edge don't you know.
So if you get the guy who said beta3 was needed to say rc1 is good or to be clearer "will rock us", that just makes me want it more - we have been promised a build before the general release canidatate one which has been guestimated by Paul Thurott for September 6th or 7th, but who knows.
They should release a demo of Crysis for Windows Vista users, just so we can erm play it. I want it. Oh and maybe Halo 2 as well, but the Xbox version didn't particularly impress me (sure guns akimbo was fun, it always is) so I am not going to get myself hyped up over it, but it would definately be nice to start gaming on Vista and see how it holds up.
One last curious thing... Why doesn't World of Warcraft run in native 64bit mode anymore? Now WOW is running in WOW and thats just wrong!
