Just wanting to get some more action in the games group. Let's agree on
which sites are the best for freeware games!

And as a bonus I can update my listing of 'Recommended freeware game
sites' on the alt.comp.freeware.games information page:

good and useful seem like reasonable criteria for sites listed on the games page. . .

Smoke'em Poker:
http://www.free-games-net.com/games/sempoker.shtml

The Same Game
http://www.geocities.com/frankbannon/same/

----------

Scrabble sites:

Networdz (Scrabble clone):
http://www.zamazam.com.au/scrabble/

Trussel's Electicity - Scrabble information
http://www.trussel.com/f_scrab.htm

----------

IMO it would be nice to have links to sites with games or info for:

Cribbage:

Chess:

Checkers:

Go:


etc. etc.

maybe also sites with info about slowing down games, game emulators etc. etc. etc.

Yup. ;) I keep posting *and* I keep suggesting that broader questions might get more replies. ATM
this is a pretty short thread - IMO "best" is off-putting.

*I* would like to know about sites others in the group think are good - and why they think they're
good. Posts with "good" and "useful" game related sites would be helpful to me. Anyone?
