I don't know if Metro supports OpenGL graphics powered games with such RAM and CPU usage as a Metro app..

Do you not know what an app is? Apps are for tiny little "pass-the-time" games like Temple Run and Angry Birds. Not an actual full-fledged video game. The entire idea of it being an app frightens me. It can install and run just fine on the documents folder on the Windows 8 desktop. Just put a shortcut to it on the main menu or something.

Microsoft is calling them apps because you can add them to your computer like apps.
