They still do. I have Win95 games that were broken in WinXP but started working in Win7 x64, or ones that broke in Win7 x64 and started working again in Win10.

- worble 6y agoI'm having the opposite experience, I tried playing an old DirectX 9 game the other day and it was unplayable in Windows. It did at least boot and menus worked fine, but for some reason for another the framerate in-game was so low it was unplayable. A few days later I tried it on my linux machine with Wine and it was perfect (thank god for DXVK).

- merb 6y agothats not true, plenty of games needed win 10 support. like blizzard games (diablo (2), warcraft (3), etc.) and many others even age of empires 1/2 needed to support windows 10 via patches and did not work out of the box.
- smileybarry 6y agoIt definitely varies by game, but that's always been the case. One of the games I mentioned was broken by XP but fixed by Windows 7.
