| Yeah, it's a new console! It's essentially designed for indie games, so all of the games will either be very cheap, or free! TF2, League of Legends, Minecraft, etc. http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ouya/ouya-a-new-kind-of-video-game-consoleThey needed $950,000 over a month, they were at $3.8m this morning, now they're at $4.1m! That's just after 3 days! It's soo cheap too! For $99, you can reserve your username, get a special Icon thing, Get the console BEFORE release date!, and a contoller! Me and my brother are really tempted to get them, anyone else seen this yet? |

| Danny i hate to say this as i think its a good concept BUT...
I own a motorola xoom and it does everything that does including linking to the TV via hdmi
its a glorified tablet with a control pad
i love how the say any one can use our platform to create games then say its android bassed
android is freeware and open source anyway...

| Yeah, but this is a) £64 b) A really cool concept, which allows free, cheap gaming, rather than paying £40 for games. c) It also allows people to create, and share their own games on a huge scale, I can't imagine a bunch of people playing online against each other on tablets? |

| I watched the video on the kickstarter that woman thinks she is the Jesus of consoles breaking down the walls and saving developers milliOns lol Wow an android without the phone part and a pound shop game pad without the tetris screen.
It's a great idea an I hope it does well which I assume it will but it's not really anything new is it? |

| Looks pretty cool, but is it just games that people made themselves? If so it seems like they may be a bit glitchy if its just some people making games in their bedroom. |
