The word Uber mean? Ok so I know alot about computer hardware, and I play games, but I am not up on the fad world. Apparently "own" or "ownage" is another, something players use to boast about beating another player.

What does Uber mean? And is it pronouced uh-ber, or Uebar?

Uber is German for 'Above' or 'Over'. Some even translate it as 'Super'

Basically an exclaimation. Like Ubercool generally means extremely cool.

Pronounced Oo-Ber

I think ownage comes from 'owning your ass' meaning you're better than the rest.

Somewhere on this site someone put a link to a dictionary of cyber-jargon/slang.
