Because of that, and since the project may never come to fruition, we're going to treat this as a rumor until we hear something through some more official channels. That said, we're extremely amused by the thought of Xbox Live younguns trash-talking their way through this traditional Chinese board game.
Microsoft had a Go variant, Reversi, packaged with Windows XP, but it does not seem to be included with Windows Vista.
