Linux

That is why I am alright with that.


I too see an xbox release before linux if ever.

Linux is sort of a in a hard spot, when it comes to this sort of thing, companies don't release software for it because their market share wouldn't really pay off, and people don't use it because companies don't release software on it. But if companies did start releasing software for it linux there isn't really a reason why it couldn't grow at a rapid rate.

I have an interesting feeling that it won't be in a hard spot for long, at least so long as Microsoft does force MetroUI upon the desktop power-users that generally includes most PC gamers, as MetroUI is quite clearly further "consolification" of the desktop PC to a PC gamer.

???? I have a hell of a time trying to figure out people problem with Metro. I am a windows power user and
Metro is not this game changing thing that's going to ruin Windows OS. I've been testing Win8 for some time
and even made some app's just to play with it. As of the latest release it's pretty solid now. And win8 is not a
a hard concept to grasp. Atleast for me, but I'm a WP7 user. I've loaded a few games on Win8 and they play
just like they do on win7.

MetroUI is a tablet UI that's specialized for the touchscreen interface. It is nothing but an inconvenience for a keyboard/mouse user. Hell, to make matters worse there's not even the slightest bit of information that anyone will be able to natively disable MetroUI so they can use a traditional desktop UI from the moment Windows boots up to the moment it shuts down.
