They have shown Forza 5 running on DX11 last year I think, on Gamescom. They also said that Windows 7 will come with Halo 3 or 4. They say a lot of things, very few tend to be true.

The Wii U is actually the best console of this generation for some people due to its decent lineup. Nintendo games are rarely bad, despite being iterative.

Maybe, but that's mostly because apart from Forza 5 and Bloodborne Sony/MS exclusives of this generation suck. Dreamcast had strong exclusives too, NBA 2K was born on that console. Also Shenmue.

Exclusives these days are iterations of some long going series. There isn't a new and exciting game on any of consoles, that is reserved for PC these days.

Mario games are great but I'm not 12 anymore. For multiplatforms Wii U sucks because it is very weak hardware wise.

So apparently you need to upgrade your current windows 7/8 first to get a key and then perform a clean install if you want one.
Please tell me I'm wrong  :cry:

I just performed a clean install without upgrading first, I could skip the activation part, but now I can't activate at all, although I thought Microsoft said they'd store the hardware ID on their servers and fix the key that way?!

So I just did a fresh install of w10 (finaly) and I had the same problem, using the buildin diagnosis tool fixed it though. It said my default gateway was unreachable although I had everything configured just fine.

Well ive gotten to a point where i am reciving packets but icant load a website. ipv4 is connected but ipv6 i have no idea how to set up and thats the one it says is not connected.

actually strike that its FUBAR. An official windows update killed my computer. Never update ever again.

Why no love for Toy Commander, best game ever.

For multi-platforms I have a PC. All consoles are very weak hardware wise, yet even though it's weaker, the Wii U manages to have better exclusives.

Scroll down the site to the bottom for performance comparisons between Win7, Win8 and Win10.
Lots of games gain performance - some noticable, some not - on Win10 even when running on DX11.

Noticed for example a big boost in Dying Light and Far Cry 4 myself. Especially FarCry 4 is running way better now.

Edit: That Torrent-upload thing was the first option I turned off after install...

I'm still contemplating whether I should update my XP to 7 or wait a few years.

Thoughts?

I think I'll stick with 7 until I'm forced to "upgrade".  I don't like all the integrated spyware in 10.  Even if you turn it all off the plumbing is still there to be exploited.
