Thread: do any of these games work on windows 7

  1. #1

    Default do any of these games work on windows 7

    I just feel like buying a new game and have shortlisted these games.
    Splinter cell chaos theory
    brothers in arms earned in blood
    cod deluxe edition
    My computer meets the hardware requirements but these games are all for xp, but I have 7 ultimate 32 bit. Will any of these games work?

    They should all work. I've run much older games on Windows 7.

    I can run the Tom Clancy: Splinter Cell on Wind 7 64 bit so Chaos Theory should work if its a later game...

    No reason it shouldn't if you set the compatability mode. I've seen people run Tiberian Dawn (Not the new free release) on Vista.

    PLayed chaos theory on my windows 7 64bit.
    Dont see why the others wont. I've had no issues playing anything on Win7 and I've played some waaay older stuff. Like Raven says, compatibility mode is quite bullet proof.

    You'll find that games that don't work out of the box on XP might not work out of the box on windows 7, ie. some games from the 80s and early 90s. Windows 7 64bit a is very good gaming OS and is slowly but surely taking over as the new standard.
