Looks basically identical to Kongregate or Armor Games or any of several other well-established flash game portals, but with more garish ads. Am I missing something?

I dunno, I'm not waving a metatalk flag and saying this should be deleted, but it seems like a pretty weaksauce flash game aggregator. What do these guys have that kongregate, armorgames, jayisgames, newgrounds etc. don't?

err...on preview what ook said.

Let me add a link so as not to be a total douche: fox fyre is a pretty neat realtime scorched earth style thing.

Oh and there's a zork webgame.
Don't get all excited about that one, it's basically a LOTGD/LORD thing without anywhere near as many neat options but pretty graphics.

You didn't lube your Adblock up, did you? Now go to the medicine cabinet, find that tube of ointment, and go lube up!

We are talking about the same thing, right? ...right?

As long as we're here, can anyone explain to me why the stupid "Achievements" badges on Kongregate are so compelling? I'll be sitting there playing a flash game and be perfectly aware that I'm not really enjoying it but I've already collected thirty-five of the forty-seven whatzits so I keep going for another half-hour anyway, until:

"Dude! You just completed an arbitrary combination of hand-eye coordination tasks and won the You Completed An Arbitrary Combination Of Hand-Eye Coordination Tasks badge, and incremented a variable on a server, somewhere!"

Is this just me?

The first step is admitting you have a problem. Just for you: [img].

So...is this an ad for a mediocre game site or an ad for AdBlock?
