Not too shabby for Intel's HD4000 gpu... Looks like the Surface pro shouldn't have any issues playing most PC games before 2009 or current console ports that make it to PC.

No. Any x86 tablet can run it and there are about 20 out right now.

Of course the ones with the Atom really can't run anything other than Sega Genesis classics and some indie games maybe. You need intel i3, i5 or i7 tablets to run proper games games.

Samsung, Acer Lenovo, HP...all have tablets that could technically run steam and play games like this.

I want to see AMD release some APU tablets. I had an Acer w500 last year running Windows 8 dev preview and it had a lowly C50 APU. With that I could run portal, Half Life 2, Resident evil 4, Halo, Halo 2, COD4...some of those games had to be at 1024x600 but frame rate was solid.

I cant wait for a tablet i can use to replace my pc. I think they are coming soon

Can it run Crysis 3 ?

On low/medium visual settings and 1024x600 resolutions...you betcha.

Even like that, it'll still look better than 360/ps3 version :P

What's impressive about an expensive Ultra book running a game?

Whats impressive is you can pay a 10th of the cost for a console to play the same game :P

Ivybridge is impressive.

I will still stick to my Vita for gaming on the move, playing anything other than REALLY old games is just disappointing on any pc compared to my ultra powered PC. On my laptop, I basically don't play anything any more, because I would just be thinking about how much better it would look at home

This is impressive in the same manner as seeing a Tesla Roadster haul a trailer. Mathematically it's possible but not something it was designed to do.

Dont see that myself its just a laptop with a very expensive detachable keyboard, if it was a tablet doing it like the RT version or a IPAD, that would be cool.
