By now you're probably aware of some of the features that are new and specific only to Windows Vista like Aero or Sidebar Gadgets, but you may not be aware of changes that Microsoft has made when it comes to games.  New with Windows Vista is a special Games Explorer (included with all versions of Vista), and three games which we'll be talking about today.
