As for windows 7, I've heard some people say that it does work, and some Sat, 26 Dec 2009 22:11:40 GMT Jerry Winarski http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/outlaws_bb/message/2468 http://sports.groups.yahoo.com/group/outlaws_bb/message/2468 Hey guys, Does the game work on windows 7, I beleive that it did not work on Vista.
