I like Lords just for the sound effects and monster shooting, and have occasionally pulled it out for another blast, as I've done with galaxy ranger. My only problem in both games, (and more so in ranger), is that the computer isn't exactly the most intelligent of opponents. In ranger it

Hi Ari, Mind you not all of what I am about to say here I am totally sure about, but I've been looking over the beta sdks for Vista and it is going to prove to be quite a bit different from the 98/2000/XP era of Windows. First major change, from a programming standpoint, is that most of the

I'd actually also heard something about many games that were made for XP will not work under Vista. The thing I'm trying to get at, is, if there is no support for older versions of DirectX, and if the new games will then not work under old windows versions, the message to us is clear? Adapt or

Hi Ari, The entire problem with Vista for us is that Microsoft is being very silent and tight jawed about Vista except what they want you to know. I've only managed to find out tidbits through talking to other devs who have tested it, and stuff I read between the lines on the Vista Platform

Hi Liam, Yeah, I usually wait as well. I wait for the dust to settle and for the issues to be discovered to upgrade. As I recall I used Windows 2000 up until late 2003 or early 2004 before I went XP, and it had already been out a while so I usually don't rush in to upgrades. Especially what
