I always wanted to play a game where Kurosawa-like heavy rains are present and ClearSky looks like the one.
Which, when you think about it, is quite a paradox.

To impose Vista Hell upon myself for few stupid water streams... well, to each his own I guess.
You'll have to and soon anyway :p
Alan Wake and other future DX10 only games

Irony, not paradox.

Not with my current configuration. It could handle Vista, but down to practical pros and cons, why? If 85 percent of uber-demanding games are going to be just disposable and hyped tech demos, I can stand two more years of moderate retrospective gaming. It happened to me before and I still live.

I'm still running Windows 2000(!). I have yet to encounter a modern game that I can't run perfectly well under it.

Besides, DirectX 10 is coming out on Linux anyway.

No.

i was talking about the visuals, certainly not the high standards of story, dialogue and framing. no game will reach that, it's a different medium so I don't feel cheated when I can't have the emotional and intellectual satisfaction like I have when watching Kurosawa, Mizoguchi, Tarkovski, Bergman, Jodorovsky, whatever.
XP sp-3 is out so a reinstall is planned, i left 60gb free on my hd for another partition, so Vista it's gonna be. but since I expect STALKER to get pushed further back once more I still got time. and then I'm sure I'll have to wait for a patch :) until then I have enough money for the next next gen dx10 video card.
STALKER is good.
STALKER+mods is atm my favorite game, it slowly creeps up there to the top20

It's definitely more ironic than paradoxical.

Isn't a paradox just a stronger irony?
