Makes sense, though anyone can get it by switching to the New Zealand store.

Meanwhile I still need to buy Jungle Run and Fiesta Run off the Windows Store.

I really enjoyed that discussion Rayfist and Bradandez were having. I agree with Brandon but I commend both of you for talking about such an in-depth topic instead of spamming memes.

So Fiesta Run is finally playable natively from PC? Last time I checked it was not available on Windows Store

Yeah, I'm surprised Rayfist went so long without posting memes. His favorite meme is Doge.

I can't wait to use Windows 10 actually. It's also great that they've released those two apps on the Windows Store!

What's wrong with Windows 10 Spyroguy?
It's a very nice OS honestly. 8 was an atrocious mess with it's tiles but everything is laid out nicely on the start menu here.

I have nothing against Win10 itself, but I find the attempt to make some games Win10 only in order to gain a userbase for the OS incredibly cheap, because people apparently have no more reason to upgrade their OS other than being curious about the newer one. I'm using Win7 for example.

I am more interested in Windows 10 than I was after Windows 8. I will be testing Windows 10 as soon as I get the instalation file and see if it is a permanent upgrade or if I hold up with Windows 7 a little more.

I wonder why most soft launches are in New Zealand. PVZ 2 also soft-launched in New Zealand. :?

The only thing you need to look out for is compatibility with older titles. 8 honestly had very bad compatibility with older titles and well... it's not much better here.
Invest in a second hard drive and install Windows 10 on it.

I want to like Windows 10, I really do. But unlike Win8, where I can cut out the tablet features with a bit of software, WinX is a fusion of the tablet and desktop. And that's something that bugs me, WinX feels like Windows is trying to play Android, which isn't always a good thing.

The UI customisation is extremely limited, the start menu is a hybrid of Win7/8, which I'd have liked, if they didn't proceed to water it down to the point where it seems nowhere near as featured as either of its predecessors. The sterile One Channel-esque approach, where title bars are all white and the only semblance of personalisation on windowed applications is a tiny, one pixel wide border.

It's a shame too, like I said, I really want to like Windows 10. There's some nice ideas, and I was optimistic about it when I used the earlier previews. But now, having used the RTM build, I'm glad I decided to clean install Win8.1 instead of waiting for 10. Because I'm probably going to be waiting a little while longer.

@Rayfist Obviously, the most decisive factor for the upgrade decision will be how all my software will behave in 10. I always did tests first before finalizing an OS, like I did for XP to 7. I'm personally fine with 7 for now though.

I believe the main reason is that this is originally a mobile application, and their priority is indeed to have it available on mobile devices, but then it has to be developed for Windows 10, I believe.

This isn't a discussion about Rayman Adventures! You guys gotta stop it -3- or else...

(So is Windows 10 any good? I haven't check it out)

I think that this is playable on PC because every Windows phone app is compatible with Windows 8 and 10 too as far as I know.
