Today I saw an HP Stream 7 running Windows 8.1 in an electricals shop down the road from my office for a mere £40. Only after getting back to the office did I realise that, if it's running 'proper' windows rather than a cut down phone version, it should be able to run Windows game.

All the revies I've looked up say it's a decent enough device, but on the gaming front focus on modern crap like WoW. I'd much rather have Creatures 2, Freedom Force, Etherlords and HoMM in my pocket.

So, would it be any good for those sorts of games? And how do keyboard/controller inputs work on full-screen programmes?
