All of them work with minor issues that have to do with installation or xlive.dll problems.

GOTY Fallout 3 has issues.

Halo 2 has issues.

Be aware that the majority of users out there have no issues.  You won't hear from them because there is no reason to look for help.  Make sense?  The squeeky wheel gets the grease.

Do some research, check minimum requirements of each game and compare with your PC and go from there.  I would be sure to meet the RECOMMENDED requirements.

The only games that seem to be having more problems than most is the first 3 games: Halo 2, Viva Pinata and Shadowrun

I'm currently running vista, generally speaking does everyone think the upgrade to windows 7 is worth it? Think performance/stability much better?

If you have Vista then their no point of upgrading to Windows 7.About performance i heard many opinions  Some says it is best and some say it is same has vista.

If you need to upgrade to Windows 7. Then you can. No one is going to stop you.

Hey Epic, I challenge you to get windows 7 and run it for one week.  Even if you can get your hands on a laptop with Windows 7.  I guarentee you will not go back to Vista!  You will hang yourself before you do!  Windows 7 is so much better.  Sure there are going to be compatibility issues, as there are with every new OS.  Go ahead, give it a try!
