Hey guys, if you've got a jailbroken Surface you can play quake 1 and quake 2 on it now! bfosterjr ported them over to WindowsRT. I put up some videos of them running in case you're not willing to jailbreak your Surface.

Quake2: Quake 2 on Windows RT - xda-developers

Quake1: Quake 1 (w/OpenGL) on Windows RT - xda-developers

So... Wow. This is why I want the pro... So now I'm faced with choices.

[ryan.kruger]

Stupid question... Where do I find how to jailbreak the surface rt?

[vdek]

This is actually a Surface RT, not pro! I put up a video and corresponding links here on how to jailbreak the Surface RT: Windows RT JailBreak Tool Improved to Autorun with Video! | Windows RT App Review

[ryan.kruger]

I understand that... What all can you run on a jail broken RT tablet?

Are you able to plug in a xbox 360 controller and play quake? This would be a great game to play on my commute to work in my carpool.
