IM(not so)HO, Vista's UI looks like a bad Windowblinds port. They could deliver it on my doorstep and I wouldn't install it.

@Skinnylegs WDNCAYO (we do not care about your opinion) in this thread. This is the wrong place for your trolling.

I'd imagine we won't see this until lunch time in Redmond ... can't wait to get this installed tonight. I have my flash drive loaded up with everything I need to copy over/install. I've finally got this reformat/reinstall thing down to a science of exactly what I need to reinstall. :yes:

They could have made a deal to include Paint.NET with Vista. It's Free and very good.

ever looked at the copyright of paint.NET? it's made by interims and employees working for microsoft and is the property of microsoft. They wouldn't have to make a deal, but if they did it, they would surely get sued by adobe for including it. Think before you speak

did ms say the public would get rc2 today? or did paul say he thought ms would release it (not necessarily to the public) today? i'd hate for everyone to get their hopes up too high, myself included.

It may be realsed to a select number of CPP testers... ( i don't see why not, 5536 and 5728 that were sposto be "tester" builds both made the pubic and yes i'm aware for the 100,000 download for 5536 )

there was a link here, which had the page ready for public download like with rc1 and 5728: http://download.windowsvista.com/preview/rc2/en/download.htm

as for paint.net, it wont be included im sure and as for the developers, its mainly by student at the university, but microsoft did give them a developer. Its ACE, would be a nice addition, maybe they will add it for download on the ms website instead of the university site.

cant wait to install rc2, hope it works on my sata2 drive (non-raid), didnt last time.

I'm not too interested in SLI (well... I am...) but I wouldn't mind being able to just complete the installation with my 7950GX2.

I know NVIDIA are to blame (apparently) but MS still has a useless driver in all their recent builds... what's wrong with "Standard VGA Controller" anyway ? :p

Until I replaced my 7950gx2 with a ATI x1950xtx, I was never able to install Vista on this rig either...

They removed the link and now it just redirects us to the vista website ( whitch needs to be updated BIG time )

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
