Not sure which will run it best. I'm assuming that given the release date and Vista being the current version of Windows, that's what it'll be geared for. Windows 7 isn't even listed as supported. Mind you, I assume it more or less will be, but the game releasing so close to Windows 7 release date likely means they didn't have ample time to test it out on that platform. XP should work fine I imagine, so long as you have a decent processor and newer video card. I'm going to be running it on Vista (64bit) myself, but am a bit above the recommended settings, so can't say for sure the difference.

Any of them will be fine, as long as they are all kept patched to the latest version. The game will run absolutely fine on XP, Vista or Win7.



Vista, if kept patched to the latest service packs, does not use that much more RAM than Win7.

They all are good.

In my own opinion Windows 7 is the best.

I would personally reccomend either XP or 7 out of those three, but I would personally go with XP if that's what you have installed since windows 7 has only JUST come out, so you won't know what problems (if any) it has.

I'm on Windows 7 atm, it's the best OS since Win98/XP. Feels much better than Vista and XP, has no RAM issues, stays out of your way and runs everything fine. Go Win7.

I agree - forget Vista. Game runs fine on Windows 7, so if I was getting a new computer, I would use that...but as it is, I have little reason to upgrade my XP.

If you can hit up 7. Bioware has said that even though they didn't officially support it etc, they have done a few run threws of the game in office running on 7 and it worked like a charm.
