How does this relate to Windows 8 specifically? It looks like just a normal Windows application to me.

Well, he said that it was for Windows 8, and he also had a download link for it, so unless it somehow had to be modified to run on Windows 8, I'm really not sure what this has anything to do with Windows 8.

You already said FOR.That means its modified to work on windows 8.

Here I have...
Chess Titans for Vista!

Now seriously, no real person uses this game (I fired it up for the first time).
What made you think that someone will use it in Windows 8?

Oh, I think I see why this topic was made. It seems that it was pulled out of Windows Vista manually, and not found on any Microsoft download site.

However, unless this had to be modified to run on Windows 8 itself, this still doesn't relate to Windows 8 specifically, although it does make it more convenient for those wanting to install this game within a Windows 8 installation.

Just for the record, I DO use this game. Played a nice game with tonynoname the other day over TeamViewer (I lost, sad to say. I suck at chess). And I don't see why you guys are being rude to maxtorix. He just gave us a download link to an app for use in Win8. That's a good thing. Calling it "Chess Titans for Windows 8" doesn't necessarily mean there's anything special about it. Just that it runs on 8, which is all I need to know. Thanks for the link, maxtorix.

I actually think the UI of Chess Titans blends in with Windows 8 more. Good ol' chess. :)

I also use it every few weeks if there is a long trip in the car. It is a good time waster and I always win, plus it would be a good app on windows 8 being centered around touch.
