and east coast i do understand what your saying but your missing my point it took almost 4 months for that patch to make the game stable for me in a 32bit OS thats $60 for a collectors edition of a game that didnt work or was completely unplayable now as has been stated 64bit isnt needed BUT buy having a 64bit os i was able to play the game 100% stable where as in 32bit i couldnt play the game for 4 months and considering its a game i sunk 300hours into yea ill agree 64bit allows devs to be more lazy but what do you expect the world is lazy
i do believe newtekie said it best and ive said myself earlier on 32bit is fine but if i can avoid issues like the above by just having a 64bit OS why would i stick with 32bit sure its not needed but i myself in this day an age am not going to wait for a game to be patched so its stable on a 32bit OS another example is dragon age it has memory leaks loading times increase the longer you play on a 32bit os i get have the play time i do on a 64bit os before the game becomes unplayable slow due to loading times
so while 64bit again isnt needed i again will not stick to a 32bit os only to be subject to a lesser experience overall because of it when 64 bit = same price as 32bit and all hardware isw 64bit compliant and with even old games like baldurs gate from 1998 running fine on 64bit theres no reason for me to stick to the older standard maybe 32bit is fine for you but thats YOUR choice not everyone will agree just like cpus and gpus 32bit vs 64bit is subjective
