Several games these days have a banner across the top of the box that reads Games for Windows. What does this mean? Should I care?
Answer
The “Games for Windows” scheme is Microsoft’s attempt at regulating the PC games market in a similar fashion to how the console games markets currently are. Any game carrying the banner has to meet many technical specifications, including compatibility with the latest versions of Windows available at the time of release, and it has to have undergone and passed a rigorous testing process. See here for Microsoft’s official description.
