Windows 8 Compatibility

No. Metro is overall a better interface. Explorer is clunky.

I don't see anything clunky about it, especially since it's clearly optimized for mouse input, while Metro is optimized for touch input. Having to wait for windows to realize you put your mouse near an active corner or risk erroneously opening the start menu by setting the delay too low is way too clunky compared to simply swiping your finger from one edge of the screen. And don't let me get started on scrolling.

Face it... most everything people use is located via a shortcut on THE DESKTOP. Metro simplifies this.

idk, my desktop doesn't have a single icon on it. And even if it had, icons look better than those ugly huge cells with a small icon for the program. I'm not planning to use metro apps, I didn't buy my fullHD screen to have one app visible at a time, maximum of two.

What they did to the UI was actually going back in time where you couldn't even have overlapping windows... except now you can't even have windows on an OS that is called "windows" (legacy desktop not counted)

I don't think its that, because alot of games (talking offline here) are cross platform, and the PS3 uses OpenGL. if they wanted to devs could write a Linux version based on OpenGL ported from the PS3 version, it would be alot easier than porting from PC to PS3 and vice versa because nothing would be changed between Dx and OpenGL.

You heard me SE give us a Linux port of FFXIV from the PS3 version, my poor Ubuntu gets neglected (well if I can fix my hybrid graphics problems, been working on em for months)

Oh, I see... hmm.
