I think it means "above" or "over" in German

It's from the german for "over". As an English prefix it is used to mean something like "super-" or "ultra-" or "an outstanding or supreme example". An example would be an uber babe. Ubermensch is now an English word that is derived from "also sprach Zarathustra" (thus spake Zarathustra) by Nietzsche. It has an umlaut which is the two dots above the "u" that change the sound from "u" to "oo" (umlaut means unloud, or soft). The Ubermensch is "the ideal superior man of the future who could rise above conventional Christian morality to create and impose his own values".

Its a word used a lot in gaming, especially online gaming. Slang for awesomeness, powerful.

For example, "My ninja fighter warrior is uber because he's decked out with Dragon Alcar'ery's Armor.

In German it means OVER but its spelt with the umlauts over the U.
Like this: ü

I have frequently also used it as an expression of an extreme.
Example: "His fro is uber big!"
