Microsoft Surface & FFXI

Is it possible? thanks :)
Link to specs

I have been thinking about this for a while as well. I believe the "pro" version coming out in a few weeks will be able to. The real question is if windower will work.

Frankly I have been hoping SE offers a mobile version for quite a while. Not like the graphics could not be handled by almost any tablet.

From the link above:

"[3] Surface with Windows RT works exclusively with apps from the Windows Store."


So get the Microsoft Surface with Windows 8 Pro in January 2013 if you want to play non-Microsoft Store games:

What GPU is the surface using. I think that FFXI in windows will not run if the install does not scan an NVIDIA or ATI GPU.

Is this true ?? been wondering about the Surface pro now that is out anyone knows if it will work ?

no, that's not true...
