I have had limited time with the OUYA but here is a quick and dirty review.

It's small and silent. 

The UI is pretty slow. Boot time is around 10-15 seconds but there is kinda a hitch in it's giddy up.

DL'ing is pretty damn slow. Maybe because it was running on wireless. Maybe not. I won't know till I use the ethernet port (yay for wired!)

Limited selection of software. I expected this so it doesn't really bother me. I dl'd a dubwars game that was decent and a snes emu.

Last night Joel 'doodirock' Albert and I launched the newest 2old2play podcast, Still Got Game.

If anyone would like to try your hand at creating an intro, please feel free. There aren't a lot of requirements, except at some point it should say "2old2play presents Still Got Game".

Thanks...

I might've found my next tattoo design...

My OUYA is out for delivery. Just thought you would like to know.

I'm not expecting much if anything, I didn't get it for games but to dick around with. We'll see how it goes.

packing a whole house for moving just takes time. taping boxes, putting stuff in boxes, moving boxes to garage to get ready for the time when i'll put them on the truck. wrapping things in shrink wrap. in bubble wrap. taking things apart, making sure screws, bolts and fasteners are tagged and stored in a box that you won't forget about when you unpack and have to put it all back together... sigh...

 Hey, I just got back from Gamestop with my 12th replacement headset for my 360. For those of you who are not aware, my cat, Stella, is apparently on a strict headset wire diet, forcing me to buy headsets in bulk. They don't look or smell like cat food, but are somehow irresistible to felines. On a side note, I have a cat that needs a new home, I will even throw in the first headset at no charge.

Beware, all cats are inherently evil...it's in their nature.

I've just put up the second part of this - looking at the concept of immersion in games.

I officially moved to Colorado in January, but hadn't actually moved all my stuff. That changes next week - loading up the truck and moving everthing out to Colorado Springs.
