    No One Has Mentioned...

    ...the OUYA system coming in June. At $100 bucks, I'm in, at least for the novelty of it. The thing is the size of a Rubik's Cube, has HD output (video and audio), some solid power inside (CPU: nVIDIA Tegra 3 Quad-Core), wireless controller with a touch pad (sounds like Sony, eh?) and you decide how big of a hard drive you want, or you can have multiple hard drives; just switch out for whichever one has the game you want to play.

    Okay, downside is that it is all download, download, download. Still, they promise every single game available for the system is free to try. No more getting burned when you are forced to buy a game because there is no demo, and it fails to win you over.

    Heck, I spend $100 a month on freaking pizza. Bring on the OUYA!!!

    Well, they did have a huge advertisement setup on speedtest.net, torrent sites, and others, but it was when they were petitioning for funding. People donated in different levels and get different stuff, such as personalized controllers and network prestige. However, this is not as much for gamers as it is for indy devs, hackers, engineers and the like. The warranty does not void for opening the console nor for rewriting the system software, and they openly encourage modding, hacking, etc. With the exception of a learning tool and a boon for small game studios, it seems like it may actually just be a tool for hackers of this next generation of console gaming. The road to greatness should not be littered with backdoor altruism, yet do right and wrong not walk the line of perception? And with that, i must take a dump.

    Also, I used to recruit for the Anarcho-Syndicalist Revolutionary Union <ASRU Ark Hunters> (on 360 NA), but no one was interested, and I don't know if I'll ever bother playing again.

    The issue with the OUYA system is that not to many of the big names want to support it (from what I know) and it's meant for custom games and hackers
    I play Defiance on xbox, don't care if you're a dude or a chick, I just want some folks to play with.

    I think the new oculus rift coming to PC in a few months looks better. Plus it will really add to the immersion of PC gaming.
