This page is here as a list of games that are compatible with Windows 7.

Please Note: Windows 7 is currently in RC (final preparations) stage and could slightly change upon release.

If a game is unknown for a certain architecture being lightgray for x86 or x64 it is presumed to be cross compatible between x86/x64 as Windows 7 is a major rewrite using Vista's code base which was coded nearly identical on both Platforms.

Feel free to edit this page and update the list as you please.

Try to keep your Drivers and DirectX install up to date as the latest Drivers and DirectX can sometimes fix some older compatibility problems.
