I have no idea where did you get an idea that you cant play old games, I have no problem playing games back from early 90s, if by old games you mean like 80s then I have no idea because I never tried to play any games from back then. |
This isn't entirely true. It takes quite a bit a of work to get an old game to work right on a newer computer. These games just weren't built for the newer operating systems, so you will frequently run into problems. I would say that the average user has little chance of making it work.
I wanted to play Red Alert, a game originally made for Windows 95, on my Windows XP computer. I did get it to work ... for the first 5 missions or so. Then the game would just crash at the same point over and over again no matter what I did.
It's a major pain in the ass, and I would say you are almost as limited in BC in both PC and console gaming.
