Hey, I'm about to go out and buy some games like Bioshock, Crysis, Assassin's Creed, etc. My question is if I go out to a store to buy a retail game that supports 64 bit, are there going to be seperate boxes for the 32 bit version and 64 bit, or are they both in the same box? (my PC is 64 Vista Home Premium) Also, what versions are the games on Steam?
(I have 4 gigs of Ram and am looking to use DirectX10)
there are no games (at least none that i can think of) that are written exclusively for 64 bit. some games are capable of running on both, but don't worry about picking from different boxes.
steam has both 32 and 64 bit versions of some games, but again, no need to worry about differentiating between 32 and 64 bit versions.
64 bit vista ran run 32 bit games just fine. Pretty much all my games except crysis are 32 bit and they run flawlessly. The only games you (May) have problems with would be very old games, but I have not encountered any that do not work.
