don't believe the hype...
As a huge gamer I'm not sure I, or most gamers will be missing much in the way of DX11.1. Let's not forget DX11 didn't exactly take off when first released. At any rate I can soundly say that "if" I move to 8, it won't be because I didn't have DX11.1 on Windows 7.
Anyway I find it funny, if not disingenuous if you will, that Microsoft is trying to "force" people to W8 because of DX11.1, when they haven't really done much to enhance PC gaming since releasing their Xbox.
Basically we have Microsoft telling gamers if you want DX11.1, move to Windows 8, yet at the same time not really supporting the PC platform because hey, that would take away sales from our Xbox gaming consoles. Hmmm... for some reason this clip comes to mind...
