I am absolutely FUMING - DEVS PLEASE LISTEN


I waited 16 years for this game. SIXTEEN YEARS. Words cannot describe how excited I was. I booked two weeks off work, which in itself was really difficult. My boss was like "you do realise there's a pandemic with lots of unemployed people - I can replace you in a heartbeat?"

I said "I don't care!!! I want to play Flatout 3 : Chaos & Destruction!"

As the game finished downloading, my heartrate stayed at steady 200BPM whilst I burnt it onto multiple CDs, and proceeded to install it on to my gaming PC. Only for all my hopes and anticipation to be crushed like a paper cup under a hydraulic press.

This game isn't supported on Windows 98? Are you serious?? Give me ONE good reason why my perfectly fine PC has been excluded from support? I've never had a problem with this computer, and the CRT screen even still has the original vacuum tubes. It would be a crime to throw it away simply because greedy developers are in bed with Microsoft and hardware manufacturers.

This practice is ANTI-CONSUMER, and all it does it stick a middle finger up to all the hard working people who simply cannot afford to replace their computer every 20 years!

Words cannot describe my disappointment. You've lost a customer forever. Thanks for nothing. Now what am I supposed to do with all these CDs? Throw them in the bin? Great, let's destroy the environment as well.
