Will it play on Windows 8? Is it touch screen enabled?

Yes, but you have to change or delete a certain file in the game data. It sounds difficult but really isn't. Look up 'bastion Windows 8 troubleshooting' or something similar on Google. Also, I highly recommend an Xbox 360 wired controller. It makes the game so much more playable on pc.

my husband is able to play it on his laptop, guess it depends on the strength of your computer.

Yes it works beautifully on my Windows 8 device! Some of the games (Red Alert 2 in this case) will refuse to open up once they are tabbed down but otherwise the games run well!

No touch screen. If your looking for Windows 8, be prepared to relearn how to use a computer.

Yes, it can run on windows 8. Thats what my computer is. If you really want this, I recommend getting it very much.

I have played the game on both Windows 7 and Windows 8 and it works fine on both. I have not had any issues since switching to Windows 8.

No, I have not been able to get any of the games to work on Windows 8 at all. They download but you are unable to play them. I have tried re-installing the game with no luck. DO NOT BUY IF YOU HAVE WINDOWS 8

If I understand your question, you are asking about the Operating system on this. It is windows 8 64-bit and it mentions this at the top. It is touchscreen so it would most likely be windows 8 since that operating system was designed with the touch interface in mind. Without touch you will get frustrated at windows 8. The other missing details in the comparison are memory which is 6gb and hard drive which is 750gb. I do not see the info on the video card anywhere.

Yes. My friend played it on windows 8. If any problems arise, you can always right click the game and go to "properties" and find the ability to run the game as an ealier edition of windows. Also, check out aoe2 hd. You might prefer it. Good luck.

I played it on my laptop. Use whatever scdreen you want. What matters is the unit that plays the program.

I have windows 7 which plays without problems so it probably plays ok. but I don t know but I have always enjoyed the game and would consider it worth the risk.

I installed it on windows 8 and it work. The game was way more "old school" than I like so I didn't play it much.

Yes. I installed it on a windows 7 ultimate laptop just a few months ago. It does get a bit pixely at times just because its an old game, but it corrects itself quickly and I've never had any issues with playback.

No, it is NOT a touch screen. The windows 8 "tile" layout therefore renders it useless. I cannot express enough how much you will regret buying this.

I haven't found any problems w/ playing this game on Windows 8, I have been playing for approx. one month.

No it does not fare well with Win 8.1 Pro, it keeps requiring me to go online as it requests me for internet connection. Unlike the previous version (2012 running in compatibility mode); I cannot play this offline and worse I get lots of loop backs.

I tried the game on windows 8, it works well depending on the computer. A bit hard to control at first but fun when you know how to work everything.
