Oook then...

Windows NT and 2000 were not designed for gaming. They were not even designed for home computers. They are both more 'professional' operating systems, pitched towards the developer/administrator/etc for network or corporate use. Whilst people certainly use both at home, that's not really the area that Microsoft was targeting - Windows 95/98/ME/XP were aimed at the home user.

All of the Windows NT family is built on the same technology base (Windows NT/2000/XP/2003). The NT-based system has always been more secure and stable than their DOS/95-based counterparts - whilst certainly not flawless or without many a bug and error, they are far superior to the other Windows versions in terms of stability and security, as anyone who has ever used them will tell you.

And if anyone replies with 'micro$oft blowz lol', I will have to kill them (not so much because I disagree, but because it's old and annoying, not to mention most often hypocritical and under no circumstances 'cool').

The reason games don't like win200 in the old day is because they aren't design for them. Who would use winnt in their home? Microsoft design nt for networking environment. But also sees it as a more stable system, thus creating XP. Microsoft removed advanced networking capabilities from WinXP home to prevent it to be used in professional environment.
