Millions of Games

Posted by Hemos on from the a-witches-brew-if-ever-one dept.

duncangough writes "With the recent rise in popularity of casual games and the seemingly established presence of community bookmarking sites such as del.icio.us, Millionsofgames.com is one of the first websites to provide an amalgamation of these two themes. MOG is a social bookmarking service for flash, shockwave and java games although any type of game can be added, such a MMORPGs or downloadable games like Zuma and Bejewelled."

    Then keep an eye on my homepage:

    Millionsofgame - suttree

    I'll be posting plenty of games there and tagging them accordingly. Jewel Thief, for starters, is a great little game.

    Yes, but now it has a pretentious name like "Social bookmarking" to make it new and catchy.

  5. Am I the only one... by DogDude · · Score: 5, Funny

    Am I the only one on the planet that does what he can to keep Java, Flash, and Shockwave OFF of his computer? The last thing I want is a big website telling me where I can actually *find* this crap-ola.

      Your logic is counter-intuitive. You don't want this crapola on your computer, and yet, you mind there is a list telling you where to find this crapola. You could just as easily use the list to BLOCK the crap from your machine instead of actually installing it, so why are you so upset?

  7. Re:MAME by ciroknight · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Mame is mostly full of arcade games and games for old gaming systems like nintendo and such.

    Meanwhile, there is a while world of games outside of these; games like World of Warcraft and Counter Strike and all of those other trendy teen games.

    So while Mame may be a great gaming system, it is far from all-inclusive, and there will always be a taste for a game that Mame can't provide.

  9. Caution Popcap games spyware/security risk by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 4, Informative


    the summary links to popcap games autoinstall which are deemed a security threat by various anti-virus programs

    if you value your PC (or your job) i would be careful about clicking links to sites which try to automatically install software which is deemed a security/privacy threat , very irresponsible of slashdot to even link to such sites

    I guess it's kind of like casual sex. It's best on the desk of your office, during the day, when anyone can walk in on you.
