It looks like that Microsoft is planning to incorporate more robust PC gaming functionality into Windows 7. This screenshots indicate that the games startup menu in the current build of Windows 7 includes an option to automatically alert users to updates for PC games. An option box to allow Windows to auto-download "information and news about games and game providers" is also shown. Windows 7 is expected to be released in January 2010.

I wonder if we will see another wave of game comparison trailers sporting amazing DX11 or DX12 graphical features, along with a funky Microsoft website giving Tetris as an example of that dowdy old DX10 API and some high poly NPC models that have nothing to do with DirectX as a great example of why we should buy Windows 7! :]

I bet DX11 will make us appreciate even this crappy DX10. That's how crappy it's gonna be.
