    Plays PC games?

    I wonder if this thing is powerful enough to run computer games such as World of Warcraft, not just things like solitare.

    Hehe, posted almost the exact same question in the hardware forum a minute ago!

    I think we would able to play games like half life 1 and similar, not "World of Warcraft". Well, hopefully not YET.

    Re: Plays PC games?

    why not World of Warcraft ?

    The minimum system specs are :

  • Intel Pentium III or AMD Athlon 800 Mhz or higher CPU
  • 512 Megabytes (MB) or more of RAM
  • 32MB 3D Graphics card with Hardware Transform and Lighting (such as an Nvidia GeForce 2 class or better)
  • 6 Gigabytes or more of available hard drive space
  • 4x CD-ROM drive
  • DirectX® 9.0c (included with game) and latest video card drivers
  • so lets hope that it haves 512 mb ram :D

    or just wait for an expensive 1 :P

    It would be cool to take PC Gaming on the go.

    It would be competing with the handheld market without much work.

    Re: Plays PC games?

    First problem I see is screen resolution. With specs stating a minimum of 800x480 screen size, there might be some scaling problems.  It's an odd resolution, and are there games that support it?  Curious...

    Re: Plays PC games?

    I don't play games on PC much anymore, aside from the odd game of Bejeweled now and then.  I would not use a device like this to play games, there are better gaming solutions out there.

    Re: Plays PC games?

    I think it would be a wise move to bring Worms 2 to the Origami. It'd easily run, and would work amazingly with the Wi-Fi capabilites. Just not any of the new Worms games, God no.

    Plus built in keyboard. Counterstrike Source /BF2 almost impossible to play with a stylus on touchscreen.

    Re: Plays PC games?

    Bluetooth wireless keyboard would probably be better. I can't quite fathom on the possibility of playing hi-end graphics games on this, unless, that is, you could also wirelessly connect it to a larger diplay apparatus, say your 40" HDTV, wireless :D
