Nice, good to hear, that they are not throwing old games overboard!

For sure, they don't want to cope with sh*tstorm from community.

This early access driver is being provided for users who have had issues launching a small number of DirectX 9 based games. This alpha driver has not been fully tested by AMD and is not recommended for general use.
