Does anyone know if any of these games can run on Windows 8? Google is being a pain and won't answer my question, so I figured that if anyone has done it, it's probably one of you. Recently I've just been in the mood for any kind of driving (Not exclusively racing. Has to include normal driving with traffic and shit.) simulator that offers decent customization and whatnot, just because. 18WoS seems to be the only franchise that fits my criteria and if I recall correctly, the newest one is five years old, so yeah...

IIRC 18WoS: Pedal to the Metal (It's a relatively old installment of the franchise) worked flawlessly with Windows 7. Don't know anything about W8 though.

You can probably run it in compatibility mode

American Long Haul works fine..

Extreme Truckers 2 does not very well.

I would recommend Eurotruck Simulator 2. The game developers have come a long way in improving their trucking simulators. Almost not worth it to play the old ones.

I've seen it, but does it have any customization? That's a pretty important bit for me, even if it's pointless. :P

if you give me a few minutes i'll see if i cant find the torrent that i used. (or just go onto kickass torrents.com. they usually have everything there)

I'm not sure I can torrent it... :/ My campus wifi has pretty strict rules about that stuff, so if I get caught I could lose internet for a while...

Disregard my last reply. I'm willing to risk it. I can't afford to spend $25 on this....

Will do. Can you link me to whichever one you used? I tried to find a good one myself, and then my antivirus thingy went insane, and not in the overreaction kind of way.
