Reasons Why OUYA Is Worth $100 Best $100 I Have Spent in A While

Ouya is no PS3 or Xbox 360, but have to say there are a few games I played that are funner than anything I played on other systems  in a long while. A system not for graphics but for Simple Fun. No its not just a Tablet on your TV, the Control is great, games are optimized well for TV and there is already is a few awesome exclusives that are not like any phone or tablet game. Also You Can Hook Up PS3 and 360 controllers to it. Native Games, Emulators and XBMC make the $100 well worth it.


Not everything On OUYA is a Phone, Android Tablet Port. Only people that don't know nothing about OUYA say this


My Favorite Games On OUYA That Are Fun To Play With Friends Or Family.

 

TOWERFALL ($15)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obma4F2IKB8

Epic Battles with friends. Love this game. Set tons of Varients. Very Fun.

BombSquad ($5)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnfQh4kGLl4

OMG the most fun I have had with my friends in a long time. Play CoOp, Team Death Match, Death Match against your friends, all kinds of fun modes.

Nightmare Tower ($4)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nULkjGaIb8

Works So Well On OUYA, its like crack. Once you start hard to stop. By Upgrades and try to get to the boss. Beat the game and unlock Survival Mode.

Dub Wars (Demo, Full game not out yet)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyG9I7T5g14

You shoot when the beats come on, very fun game.

 

Nimble Quest(New Release, $5)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BdZ5Hn2kA4

Awwww I love playing this on OUYA more than on Tablet. Works so well, a great port.

Vector (Free)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5PHKMzBA8t0

Awesome Run Game, perform tricks to earn score. Try not to let the cop catch you. Many levels to Unlock.

 

   No Brakes Valet (Free)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFDdjKQPudA

Loads Of Simple Fun, Two Players.


OTHER AWESOME CRAP


EMULATORS (Most Are Free)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2KwyGH5mwI

Video Showing off most of the Awesome Emulators. Love NEOGEO with scan lines on, Runs flawless.

XBMC

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=78XQHex71kg

Awesome, get your self some great video add ons and this is better than Netflix. Great for streaming Saved videos and Videos from XBMC add ons.

You Can View ALL Current OUYA games here--> http://www.ouya.tv/games/

 

I think everyone should give this system a try pretty darn fun for the price and new games are added all the time.

I can play all the games on it already and thousands of games it cant on my phone or my pc via steam and bundles or emulators,

Ouya is completely useless if someone has a smartphone from the past 2 or 3 years, and even a laptop/desktop made in the past decade. Its pretty much just a 100 dollar paperweight since you can do everything on it you can on devices you already have.

There nothing on your phone as good as Towerfall or Bombsquad Multiplayer. Hell For couch gaming I dont think there is nothing as fun even on PS3 or 360. Maybe Castle Crashers. Only one that comes to mind.

I get the feeling there's supposed to be pictures or video or something in those blank spaces, but none of it is showing for me. =x

Slashkice

 

Fixed with Video links. I wanted live video embeds, but oh well did not work, probably because there were too many videos.

A lot of games where built from the ground up, exclusive on OUYA, and some of the android or IOS ports are actually funner with a control on TV.

Aww your phone or Tablet does not have BombSquad or Towerfall. The two best couch games of the last 4 years. Also Emulators and XBMC sucks on Tablets and Phones.

Well not fun on a small touch screen and not using a controller. InB4 "I Can Hook my phone/tablet up to the TV". Guess what though those emulators werent optimized on for the TV like the ones in OUYA store, so they are garbage on TV.

just hook a controller to it.  Or the fact that many of those emulators will run on PCs people already own.

Better to have them on a console that sits under the TV already, not have to mess around with other crap.

Naw, I have a Wii and I hate the thing. Covered in dust. Besides mario games and Donkey kong, the system is dead for me. Regreat Spending $200 on it.

 

Still love my PS3 and 360, now those were great investments, along with the OUYA for $100.

Yeah Towerfall and BombSquad are loads of fun and pack a ton of content. Me, my son and his friends play them all the time. Best of all they are cheap games. OUYA already has all kinds of fun up to 4 player couch games. These are just the two stand outs, that are my favorites.

System looks interesting but what turns me off is you can't play games from the Google Play Store, I already have a ton of games from it and i'm not rebuying stuff and paying the Ouya store "Premium" price just to play it again.

Games are cheap $1 to $15. There is some exclusives already well worth paying for, that cant be found on Google Play Store.

You can use Google Play store, if you know how to do it, have to root the OUYA and do some other stuff, which I wont do because most of those games were not optimized for Controllers or a 1080P TV screen  :).

Looks like Ouya is mostly worth if you have people to play with and personally I'm more the single player guy type. :P But I guess it could be brought to parties from time to time. I'm not interested in getting it now but I'll keep an eye on it. 

Vector looks fun too. A bit slow tho.

I already don't enjoy Android games, putting them on my tv with a controller will do little to help.  I have consoles for those kind of games already.

Not worth my $100. I'd never play it and the games just don't translate well to TV. Most are pretty darn bad.
