Crysis 2 played on the Joojoo and Iconia tablets welcome to the age of the il33t3rati!

Cryteks Crysis 2  played by thegameveda on an Atom powered nVidia Ion GPU'd  Windows 7 Ultimate Fusion Garage Joojoo Tablet , running on Steam of course! 

A year ago all the blogs were telling you this could not even run Flash , now we all know which tablet cannot run Flash even into it's second generation... even with a 9 times faster gpu ...! Seriously I am constantly impressed by what the Ion and Atom pairing in the joojoo can do , I was expecting the game to be a total frame by frame slide show , but take a look see. Now if only some manufacturer could wake up to the idea that we want an i7 Windows 7 tablet with discrete ( or equivalent ) graphics. Ironically 1 year after the "blogs" declared joojoo dead , it is currently the most powerful gaming tablet in the world ,with more compatibility and choice of real games than any rival , from DOS to Unreal Engine to Cryengine 3 , all are possible on the humble Atom powered Fusion Garage Joojoo. If any one can help with tweaking the settings for Crysis 2 further please let me know  and I will post a follow up . So forget l33t gaming and welcome the dawn of the il33t3rati !


How far are we away from a true Windows 7 gaming tablet ? That is what I need to know , this  is the second Windows  7 tablet I have running Crysis 2 ( see the video below for the i5 dual screen Acer Iconia playing Crysis 2 with Intel HD GPU), it is the 3rd ( counting Libretto , Iconia and Joojoo) that I have running full games  , developers and hardware designers can no longer ignore the vast hunger for tablets , tablets that run FULL PC games , on FULL OS like Windows 7 , this time next year or in fact maybe later this month thegameveda WILL be playing Crysis 2 at 30fps + on a fourth Windows 7 tablet , the tech is getting better every day , the joojoo with Windows 7 is 1 year  old technology but still outdoes any other tablet for straight up PC gaming .

We used to spend 1000s upgrading l33t pcs to play major releases , I could show you the same game running at 100fps at 5120 by 1600 , but that is so.. boring! I want a game optimized so  I can run it from a Windows 7 tablet , or at least stream it through onlive or Gaikai  as well as being able to play on a gaming rig.


Why? well I am from the Crysis generation  and Crysis still barely runs on today's hardware , only recently beginning to achieve the fps  that every other game engine managed almost a decade ago ( and that is on today`s hardware). 


Cryengine 3 and Crytek will survive on how they optimize Cryengine 3 , and not on pushing sales of l33t gaming rigs . Console game sales will not be enough , you need to tap into the vast PC gaming and now PC tablet gaming fan base . 


In 2007  thegameveda felt it cool to build a 3k rig to get a few more fps from the chugfest that still is Crysis ( whilst every other game ran at 200 fps!)  in 2011 thegameveda finds it uber cool to call for the formation of the il33t3rati ( no hoody or Animus required), a gaming brother/sisterhood that strives to run the most high spec games on the lowliest of hardware thereby forcing lazy coders who depend on the endless hardware upgrade cycle to wake up to the future , optimize their code , or if too lazy then at least stream their games using services like  onlive and Gaikai that make hardware irrelevant
