now directx12 is not backward compatible (beta tester of windows 8 with direct X 12) in fact the last version of direct X rrendered unusable almost all my games even the directx 11 games so is unacceptable if is posible the implementation of that version.
i have readed cmments saying if you have opengl 2.0 you can use ppsspp but is imposible i have an old gpu with open gl 2.0 but it have pixel shader 2.0 and appears a warning saying you need a gpu with pixel shader 3.0 to work" if is posible to make a directx version would be fun to test

You are hard to understand but Dirextx12 isnt available currently and most likely wont available on Windows 8.0 so I dont know what you are talking even if you have early access to SDK or some very early version DirectX12 it is likely not working properly yet and there are no GPUs currently with full hardware support for Directx12 also Dirext12 require WDDM 2.0 while Windows 8.1 has WDDM 1.3 so I dont know how can you use Directx12 on Windows 8. Bottom line is Directx is backwards compatible newer versions can play old games which used lower feature levels.
