I ran the 64-bit version of Far Cry on my Win XP 64. I convinced myself it looked better, but I doubt it actually did.
Edit: Huh, I guess it did look better. From the 64-bit patch notes:
Optimized and refactored code to take advantage of 64-bit architecture.
Two AMD64 exclusive multiplayer maps – MP_Stronghold and MP_Gorge
Added Offset bump mapping support.
Added higher resolution textures and objects.
Increased some viewing distances.
Updated the Pier level with new content.
Windows 7 is the new hotness
Guess Microsoft will have to release another „good“ OS if they want people to upgrade
Microsoft: LOL no, here’s more copilot integrations no one wants
Last “good” Windows OS was Win2k
The 64 bit version of XP was pretty good.
As if I could afford 64-bit hardware back then
I could, but it was pointless because 90% pretty much everything else was still 32-bit lol

Yeah, that is very likely not true.

Truth is immaterial, the only question is will that article make someone go hunt down copies of windows 7 and maybe spend $20 on it.
