Sounds perfect.

The thing that worries me is that the game is insisting you install the c++ 2010 runtimes (this is something that shouldn't be ignored).
After some digging (and a fresh install of Windows 8 x64 in a virtual machine) around I have found out that Windows 8 does in fact require the VC++ 2010 redistributable package to be installed (I assumed that Windows 8 had these by default).
Without the VC++ 2010 runtimes the game silently terminates!
Could you please check your "%windir%\
SysWOW64" directory for the existence and version of the following files (these are just a handful of the files I noticed the game requires):
- msvcr100.dll : 10.00.40219.1
- msvcp100.dll : 10.00.40219.1
- msvcr110_clr0400.dll : 11.0.50709.17929
- d3d9.dll : 6.2.9200.16384
- d3dx9_43.dll : 9.29.952.3111
- d3dx10_43.dll : 9.29.952.3111
Legend:
- Red = Visual C++ 2010 binary.
- Black = Standard Windows 8 binary.
- Blue = DirectX binary.
If you are missing (have an older version) some of the
red files, please download (and install) the latest VC++ 2010 SP1 (x86) redistributable package from
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downl...s.aspx?id=8328.
If you are missing some of the
blue files, please install the DirectX runtimes from the "...\redist\DirectX\" directory.
