Its Tegra 3 based. I have a Tegra 3 Nexus 7... The graphics are far in excess of PS2 or Wii quality. Its probably closer to earlier HD games from 2006 or 2007. Shadowgun would be a good example, because its optimized for Tegra, AFAIK.

cool, what are your interest in OUYA? what did you think of thier feedback?

My brother has one on order as a Kickstarter backer. Hopefully I can mess around with it to see how it is. If it could get a few of the keynote titles from Android, it could be in a pretty neat position.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

It looks interesting, and that Nexus 7 demo shows its HW can offer more than decent graphics, surely better than 6th gen consoles once devs arrive to use a good part of its potential. But the most interesting part is the dev environment, great freedom and low launch price could make it succeed where 3DO, with lower royalties and greater freedom than competing consoles, but price too high, failed (3DO came out in a period when HW power was still very expensive, and the price of graphics chips wasn't dropping yet as fast as now, so it had also far lower chances of reaching a barely acceptable price as fast as an expensive console like PS3 could more than 10 years later).
I don't know if I'll buy one, but I'm not ruling it out.

i think the main focus is creation, and experimentation. and just because it's android based, doesn't mean it's mobile, and plz change your tone.

Spoken like someone that hasn't played mobile's finer offerings.

Well, quick games when I'm not in the mood for complex PC games would be an obvious use, playing with friends too, taking it with me on holidays to relax after the sea or after skiing could be another use. I don't know whether I'd experiment programming it too, as dancing, reading, travelling and playing games already take most of my free time, not to mention GFs when I'm not single, while when I'm actually on vacation, skiing or swimming leave me time, energy and mindset for GFs, dancing and relaxing hobbies, not challenging ones.

I have played Planet Crashers (Online Multiplayer) & Speed X & many others, but on my 3DS in 60 fps per eye in 3D with 6 speaker sound via earphone jack.

But they aren't as good as Dillon's Rolling Western & Sakura Samurai: Art of the Sword & Ketzal's Corridors & Liberation maiden & Johnny Kung Fu/Hot Shot/Impossible & Crimson Shroud & so fort.

 

Mobile gaming seems to be another form of PC gaming that is suppose to destroy Home Consoles & Handheld Consoles, and only helps the consoles instead by introducing more people into the world of video games.

But I think OUYA will do not bad but not good either, just nested in the middle with a dedicated amount of gamers to keep it around at a stable capacity to be sustain.
