Hi Josh, there is a problem with your thinking though. The Windows 8 tablets do not use Intel compatible processors in many cases they have Arm processors. As a result you can not just take a game designed for a PC running an Intel or AMD processor and stick it on a tablet with an Arm processor. That is where tablets have a definite disadvantage.
