[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 142955, member: 134"] People call it the Steam version because that is exactly what it is. It is the version available on Steam. People also understand if referring to it as the PC version, it is the same thing. It would be playable on Windows XP, Vista, 7, and 8 depending on what hardware you have installed. The Windows 8 version, that is something different. There are mobile phones and tablets (I think) that run not on Android or iOS, but Windows 8. I'm not talking about Surface Pro, as that can run Steam. Windows 8 Marketplace is an app store, and TPA is not currently an app for that platform. So no, the PC version is not vaporware, as it is very much alive and running today. It was put out through Steam because of the built in DRM, which was required by the licensees FS works with. Think of the Windows 8 version, that currently does not and probably will not exist, as another mobile version similar to Android and iOS. [/QUOTE]
