http://www.gametab.com/news/2728478/ to those who ask are they going to close or not, YES! MS has confirmed the closure of Ensemble Studios. part of that reason is some of the employees got laid off. |

they meant to say windows but they call it winblows because windows crashes, it doesn't do what you want it to do. thats why call it winblows. |

Windows never crashes and always does what I want it to do. |

i like how this thread turned into how vista sucks so bad. I have a beta version of vista 64 bit on my machine and it does what I want it to do. |

It is popular to dislike Vista. Most of the people that do so either have no idea what they are talking about or they are blaming the OS for something it has nothing to do with. |

yep.. I wonder how much criticism windows 7 will get when it comes out in 2 years. although I am thinking about getting a 64 bit version of vista and getting 4GB of RAM for my PC as well. |

Did none of you read past the headline? I only had to read few sentences further to see that they plan to form a new studio with the same core as Ensemble. It will be supporting Halo Wars and work on future projects. |

Ah, that's what I thought. There would have to be a pretty good reason to shut down a studio immediately after releasing a highly anticipated and huge money maker like Halo Wars. And whats with all the hatred for Microsoft? Do any of you have a single clue what life would be like without Microsoft? And about Vista... how many of you actually tried Vista and can say from experience you hate it? I know some people use it and can form a true opinion on it, but not all... You oughta take a look at the Mojave Experiment. Its an experiment that lets people try the latest version of windows, named Mojave. People loved it. And guess what? It was really Vista under disguise. Just goes to show you a thing or two about mob mentalities. |

@bjossi. hmm.. I should of put the opinion on hold. @Captain Xavious. I actually have a 64 bit beta version of Vista on my hard drive and it can do what I want it to do. |

Yeah, I know, but I'm talking about the people who keep telling us how they think Vista sucks. |
|
| Author: | RoyMustang [ Thu Sep 11, 2008 11:09 am ] |
| Post subject: | Ensemble Studios Closing after Halo Wars is OUT! |
yeah. you can't judge vista UNLESS you have it installed on your hard drive and actually gave it a try. |

First hand experience is what counts. Reading other people's opinions is fine and all, but there is no way of knowing how solid they are. |
|
| Author: | RoyMustang [ Thu Sep 11, 2008 1:29 pm ] |
| Post subject: | Ensemble Studios Closing after Halo Wars is OUT! |
yep. I agree with that |

Granted,at first vista was extremely annoying,many things would flat out not want to work,at this point I have found ways around those problems and everything is good now. The only think about vista that really gnaws on my toes is the auto updater,it likes to auto shut off your computer when you aren't looking.I'd rather have it on though because,well it is a auto updater,kind of nice. |

Maybe it is tweakable like in XP? I set it to only download updates automatically, but you have to click a button to install the updates. That way you will control when the computer installs updates & reboots after finishing the process. |
