Got a new laptop (gaming-type) even though also using for working at home and will act as a backup just in case my 5-year old XP computer crashes.
Well, I was checking to see how many of my WinXP programs (upgraded or not) I could still install in Windows 8.1 and I also decided to check games:

Looks like no problem with UT3, UT2004 and UT-GOTY, but no information on Unreal 2 and UT2003. Also, Unreal Anthology seems to not be compatible at all. Is there any truth to any of this? Has anyone tried these games in Win8.1 yet? If some don't work after the straight install, can I change settings to get it to work? Thanks for any help.
