Someone goes from excited to un-interested in a game because its not on their OS of choice? Shocking.

Well ... yeah.  What do you expect?  I'm not going to pay $100 to upgrade just for this.  Being interested in getting Project Spark would do me no good at the moment.


I know, i was saying it shouldnt be a surprise to anyone when this happens all the time.

Yeah.  And it's worse because I'd already started thinking about what I would like to do with it because I assumed I would be picking it up when it came out.

I wonder if it will work with Kinect for PC?

Not sure about the Kinect 2.0 with PC. Im sure they will enable that down the line. Or some user will bring a mod patch to do it. Maybe you could try and get a cheap copy of W8 somewhere and dual boot your PC? Depends on how cheap though I guess. :)

I actually tried a few weeks ago to see if my old Microsoft student account was still active.  That's how I got W7 and a ton of other software free.  They'd closed it down, though.  Bastards!  I'm not opposed to W8.1, it's just that I have no real reason to upgrade.  The OEM on Newegg is $100 and that's not even Pro.  It's just not worth it to me.

A new PC is probably a long ways off for me, I just got a new GPU after all, but I'll probably look into Project Spark then.  It should have a ton of user-created content by that point, anyway.

Ooh.  Ah.  Gotcha, roger that.



Welp luckily I can get a Windows 8 upgrade from my University for $20!!!!!!!!

This game is the only thing making upgrade. I liked LBP, but I wasn't a fan of if being 2D. So this is like the 3D LBP that I've always wanted.



It looks so good! I forgot how fun this game looked at E3.

Oh yeah. If you havent jumped before then, there will be loads of content for you rigt off the bat. Hopefully W8 upgrade goes down in price before then for you.



Hope its as fun as it is ambitious.



@pezus how do you know this is only for Windows 8...? Did they announce that?

Bitch move by MS if true! they already know Windows 8 isnt very liked. I dont see why they wouldnt put this out on 7 as well then so much more people will be able to get it.
