When all hope seemed lost, Microsoft delivered signs of life on the Ultimate Extras front. In this context, users of the Windows Vista ultimate SKU will be able to enjoy a new game, sound scheme as well as a collection of fresh content for DreamScene. All the new Extras have been released via the Windows updating infrastructure, but they are available only for the Ultimate edition of Vista.

"We are excited to announce that 3 new Windows Ultimate Extras are now available for installation via Windows Update! This is the 6th wave of Ultimate Extras released by Microsoft exclusively for Windows Vista Ultimate users," revealed Christopher Flores, director, Windows Communications.

The Ultimate Extras never quite managed to rise up to the expectations of Windows Vista Ultimate users. In this context, the releases are yet another example of Microsoft over-promising with Vista but under-delivering. However, at the same time, the Redmond company stuck to a repetitive mantra, insisting that additional new Ultimate Extras would continue to be shipped in the future, an aspect that has not changed. Flores indicated that Microsoft was indeed working on more Ultimate Extras, but failed to specify any consistent details, including an estimated availability date.

"Microsoft Tinker is a casual game that provides players with short puzzle game play sessions set in a warm, calming environment.
