Now Microsoft want to charge me for it. So it will never be going on to my computer. They want me to pay so they can install all their spyware?
No game is worth that.

I waited six months then installed 10 and haven't had any problems. I installed "Start is back" ... http://startisback.com/ as I didn't want a touch screen and the only real problem I've encountered is automatic updates, which are just that - "automatic". Ordinarily this may not have been a problem but I sold my home and was using a dongle and the efn updates kept using all the data.

As for spyware, the bloody stuff is everywhere.

Didn't mean to bash windows 10.

It's just that you can't buy the game without it...shame.

PS. There's a blue FGX in the game too. It's missing from the image ^^
