The game is compatible with windows 8 according to GoG, but the cutscenes before the mission stutter severely. Even the second into video stutters. Although the game seems to be working otherwise, it doesn't look like the game is completely compatible with windows 8. I have looked around the forums and windows 8 for other games in the JA2 series is not compatible. It's not a product failure type of situation but it does put a big question mark over the stability of this release.

I have already gone over the basics i.e, update graphics card, run as admin, change compatibility, etc. Maybe a software is conflicting, i havent checked yet. So what is the experience of running this game on windows 8? Is there anything additional that i need to do?
