Jason, I pretty much agree with you. But I’d emphasize these things:

Most people just don’t know how to evaluate a business from the business stand point. The major flaw with the whole idea behind Ouya is that there’s no viable economic model for their proposal. In short: from the start it was a scam.
The best thing about growing older is that you can foresee many things. While it was in kickstarter I already said that Ouya had the look, the feel, the taste and the smell of a scam. I’m just surprised that they lasted soooo long...
effing yeah... sadly...
They don't care as far as all the dirty is kept under the rugs. If you see how fast companies backed away from Armstrong, Tiger Woods and other people (not to mention organizations) as soon as the filthy was not covered anymore... Yeah, they care about morals when imorality becomes apparent.
Serious companies are jumping out FIFA like they do when any supported person/organization appears ugly in the photo. The common opinion is that FIFA is quite a mob business, not that different from other "strange organizations" like Latin American crime cartels. In Brazil they displaced poor people, participated in…
Problem is: time makes things irrelevant. If game is actively under development for eight years,either it'll present technological breakthroughs that'll enable astonishing earnings (let's say: a copy for each PS4/XO in the planet) or it is already a floppy. If it is not under active development, then chances are it…
Passing out this game till trouble between ZeniMax and Oculus/Facebook gets clear. In case is patent trolling, ZeniMax and its subsidiaries will be blacklisted in my budget.
Only thing is that it seems your career started in 1985. Yeah, at that time and about 11yo it was a "non remunerated job" but then... many of best things in life comes with little financial reward...
The only NDA I saw in this case (signed and thus valid) refers to the contract of John Carmack and Id Software. If there are others it must be seen. Besides, the text says "breaching" which is extremely ample. Also NDAs are not umbrella contracts/agreements, they must be specific. Again ZeniMax didn't point which part…
Only they failed to produce a NDA. They say they were working on a NDA when relations were cut. If you share information without contracts, NDAs, patents, registered trademarks or anything like that, well, you're doing things in the fraking public domain.
Then, in the complaint, they should have pointed out what secret was stolen, what copyright was infringed, what IP was unlawfully used. Nothing, just vague arguments about dates and what Oculus had here and there... BS
Not that easy. They'll have to present proof of intellectual property theft. They'll have to map in the Oculus tech the pieces of technology that were copied, the patents that were infringed. They'll have to produce the NDAs (which they seem not to have)...
It sounds another ugly patent trolling. In these days some people imagine that if one is annoying enough, he can get some money just to walk away. Thing is: either Zenimax have solid proof of what they're complaining about or they'll be in a very poor situation. Facebook won't allow to be trolled because if such…
Regarding the clip, it is fascinating as indoor CGA is much more realistic than outdoor. It is impressive that light, textures and reflections inside Louvre are much better than the animation of the city.
Mediocre exercise on CGA. Sophomore students from average (3rd line) technical college should be able to do this kind of stuff as intermediary evaluation (meaning, about 3 weeks to deliver).
Note to court: don't feed patent trolls...
MC using same outfits somehow makes sense (outfit can interfere with movements). But applying make up sounds a little over the top... (lol). Amazing...
