Whilst Vista is designed as a "Gaming OS" it still has several problems compared with XP and the game consoles....

IT'S A WHORE FOR SPECS!

I recently upgraded my PC (which according to 3DMark06 is in the top 75% of all PC's in the world) to Vista and I got a 4.5 on the performance rating system

It said my RAM was poor even though it's DDR2 PC5300. What the hell?!

So, I upgraded to 2Gb of DDR2 PC8500 (1066Mhz beastly stuff) and got a great deal on it. So when it arrives I'll let you all know how it improves things.

So there we go, the moral of the story; Vista can allow you to play 360 games but with the price it costs to upgrade...will it affect 360 sales? I doubt it.
