Windows 7 Update on Gaming | Will Your Games Run on Windows 7?

October 22, 2009 · Filed Under Windows · 2 Comments 

After so much testing on the new Windows 7, most of the games tested ran smoothly and without noticeable degradation in game performance and stability. This was done by some of our teams and other sites which deal with one of the latest desktop PC operating systems in the market today.

Come to think that Windows 7 is still in its early stages, any glitch that may come along the way will be fixed and improved. Windows Vista introduced the games explorer which is improved on Windows 7 (see screenshot below) taking Windows 7 gaming a mile further. This feature serves as a central repository of games, and instead of looking for the shortcuts in the menu or the links on the desktop, everything is conveniently located in one organized place.
