there are too many of these articles
Here are the benchmarks for the gpu it has. Although the test machine has a better cpu and ram so it didn't bottleneck the cards performance.
Its nothing mind blowing but you can still play new games on low setting at semi reasonable frame rates.
Battlefield 3 - 1024x768 low AA:- AF:2x averaged 26.9 fps.

Balance is everything, if it starts creating problems in other areas of your life. ie... social, academic, relationships, mental/physical health. Ya might want to re-evaluate.
I have waves of gaming. Winter I usually play a lot, while right now I'm happy to get 1-2 hours in a week.
Until halo 4 comes out and i'll turn off the cell phone for a few days... or longer
I think the wii u would be a good system for it. Would fit well the 3d toons they use. The drop in resolution wouldn't have as big of a impact as AAA games.
That was my attempt with my lady. She played it for 4 hours... loved it but didn't have the urge to try it out again. Its not one of her ideas of things to do when she has free time.
Sims 3 and roller coaster tycoon are honorable mentions. Yet short lived... again.
If you need booze all the time to enjoy a certain game and avoid all the frusterations that come with playing it sober. I'd have to recommend playing a different game.
If ya do it. Keep it safe,moderate and responsible!
I gave the them $100, not $4 million dollars. At least it goes to show people are interested.
I think it has potential. At the very least i'll be able to stream movies now to my spare tv if it bombs, which is worth $100 to me. $100 media center.
Pretty sadistic getting so much enjoyment over people getting "scammed out of their money".
It will be a ultra low entry device with potentially cheap games. I'm sure there is ...
Microsoft have been giving away a free 4 gig console with a 3 year subscription of TV/Internet through telus for a bit now here in Canada.
Seems pretty plausible.
lol, i just bought into it. I'm totally in need of something new and innovative. I'll be getting a ps4, 720 day one... which ever comes first.
Currently got a good savings account for "toys", although the ms surface pro might drain it shortly!
Kinda of excited to see which direction ouya goes.. I have to admit, i'm not a huge fan of the name.
I'm afraid if they don't cater to a wide audience they will be left in the dust.
That doesn't mean they shouldn't keep delivering on the exclusives.
ya i've read a few articles talkin about about sonys problems.
Sounds like with the new CEO, they're focus will be more directed towards gaming and entertainment.
Let LG and Samsung make all the hardware and crap...
I'm completely happy with sony focusing on entertainment!!
why would they limit their market to gamers? As I see it "xbox" is gaming machine first, then multimedia center.
Surface is marketed as a tablet the does everything a pc can.
From what they are doing now, it appears smart glass isn't hardware specific. MS Surface, ipads and android will be able to use it all the same. Well they might hold some features strictly for surface.
I was just hoping for a way to change the color of the items you can add to the game. A little variety to the standard grey would be nice!
I have to admit tho, they've added some nice detail to the objects.
I'm just sayin its gonna be buggy as hell, I'm tryin to load the Crysis 2 demo on Origin right now and it isn't working. Comes up with a error message saying, "We have suddenly become popular and can't load your game", when it should say "We don't have enough back end to support any large volume of traffic".
I'm not down playing anything. The service it provides is currently unacceptable. They have a lot of work to make it mainst...
This will be a disaster at launch. I for see alot of growing pains. Just look at diablo 3 and its servers and this is way more complicated then that.
If you thought Diablo 3s server were bad on release, just wait for this to be implemented. I definitely for see a crap load of growing pains. At launch and after each release of highly anticipated games.
I'm excited and concerned at the same time. Could have access in the near future to much better looking games but have all the issues that come with a new service, untested to numbers of the psn.
Can't forget to mention I won't have my wonderfu...
alot of ps3 games are over hyped imo... sure, some are amazing and im pretty excited about a few of the new games in the works... but most are rent once kinda games.
I'm not saying xbox is better, but more that the ps3 isn't everything alot of people make it out to be.
Its old... lets bring in the new gen.
I wonder if companies would release new touch based ui's for older games and sell them for a reasonable price, <$5 kinda thing... c&c could be fun with touch
I'm curious how good the "Pro" version with a i5 processor and tegra 3+ will be able to run from current game library existing for the pc today.
If this opens up the option to play 3+ year old games at half descent res/quality. I could see this being huge!
Portable C & C, Counterstrike, Call of Duty 4.... There would instantly be a huge choice of games to choose from on a portable device.
Then my next question would be if...
It links to the intel hd graphics 4000 ... Or it should??
