I had the same issue with upgrading from win 7 to 10. After hours of trying to figuring out the problem. I ended up downloading the win 10 installer from the Windows website. And it did the trick. I gotta say. I love win10. It's simple. Easy to use. As with every new Windows. It can have compatibility issues. That's about it really.. But I love how it uses your account. Now it makes getting official Windows programs easy..

OMG who the hell cares!?!? Windows 10 is just fine and beefy games require beefy rigs. At least Microsoft is trying to grow the PC gaming market. People complained like this when Steam was launched in 2004 and now it's the premiere PC gaming service. Get over yourselves.

3:00 what exactly are you guys getting at here? You're acting like Windows isn't THE choice for gamers already. How many games are really being played on Linux and Mac and how many of those are AAA/blockbuster? MS-DOS was the first PC gaming platform to take hold, and that continued on through Windows iterations.

what's the problem with it being windows 10 exclusive, it is the best windows and its free. How is that an issue?

When is rodents revenge and Jezz ball coming to Windows 10?

anyone using Windows 7 or 8 can freely upgrade to windows 10, which FYI has better gaming performance for older games too due to lower graphics overhead on the OS. So it's your loss if you don't want a FREE upgrade to an OS that's literally better in every way! The guy in the middle just sound like he never used a PC before. Hire better gamers IGN! Hire a real PC gamer!

Their biggest issue is because it's coming out on windows 10 a program you could get for free all last year and if you don't like it then all you need to do is download the operating system on a usb and download it onto a new hardrive really if you can't manage that then what kind of pc gamer are you and if you won't then you can only get it on xboxone which making the move to pc gaming irrelevant to you as a pc gamer

Alot of the points that they make aren't really valid

I was excited to hear cross-play from Microsoft when they first announced it for game for windows, remember?when gears came to PC and we were supposed to game with PC players? what a let down that was.I think Microsoft shouldn't rely on cross play when nothing has succeeded, considering that on the ps4 I was playing ff14:a realm reborn with PC players without a hitch.and now sfv and I'm getting smoother connection with PC players than console player. lesson here...talk is cheap.

Are you guys really complaining about a free OS update? Not saying Windows 10 doesn't have its faults but seriously you guys are going out of your way to make issues out of nothing.

Mitch always comes across like someone who has no clue what he is talking about. He looked like a shy child being dominated by two smart women.

Microsoft just needs to separate PC from Console forever until there isn't anymore Consoles period. This equates to mixing religions. Think about it, Pure Console user, and Pure Pc users have never seen eye to eye on anything. This isn't the Civil Rights movement. Keep them separate because these two "Communities" are separate because of Personal User preferences since Console gaming was created. I'm a Console gamer and I feel bad for Pc gamers due to there standards and overall experience will diminish due to Microsoft compensating for under powered Console hardware. 100%Facts
