Hi Trouble,

Yes, exactly. Its not a lot of work porting a game from .NET 1.1 to
say .NET 2.0, 3.0, or 4.0. However, given the fact that we now have
Windows 8 and .NET 5 out already a developer really needs to continue
to upgrade his or her code to keep in line with the technology of
today and not continue to be using
APIs and libraries from 10 years ago. I don't know if people realize
this fact, but .NET 1.0 was released in 2002 and the 1.1 update was
released in 2003. Generally speaking Microsoft has a limit of 10 years
support on a specific technology, and we are now at that point so I'm
not surprised .NET 1.x will not operate on Windows 8. We've already
reached the 10 year support limit and .NET 2.0 will be 10 years in
2015. Its important to stay up to date when you are a developer as
these technologies are updated and replaced fairly regularly and after
10 years they get taken out of circulation. Any products still based
on the older technology will begin to run into compatibility issues
with newer and better operating systems and technologies.

Cheers!
