subject: Why Play Cool Games Online? [print this page] When you play cool games online, you're not JUST wasting time. You're actually helping the economy! There are a whole lot of reasons these games are up for grabs on the web, and wasting fifteen minutes to an hour of your work day is just one of them. Below we've compiled three of the top reasons for playing games on the web through Flash and Java based browser providers. Have fun and keep gaming!
Supporting Indie Game Developers
It's hard making a living as a game designer. Your ideas are usually too weird for the big publishers, and when you go it alone, your indie studio will have such a hard time competing with all the other studios out there, not to mention all the pirating, that you might never turn a real profit, even if your games are the best ever. So when you play online games, YOU play for free, but the developers earn some money on the backend from ad revenue, so click an ad and support your local game designer!
You See Some Weird Stuff!
Some game ideas are just too darn weird to make it in the fifty dollar disc market. These are games that, while fun, you probably couldn't play for the several hours required to beat a game on the Xbox or Playstation. Well, that's just one great thing about playing free games. You pay nothing, so you can go ahead and take a chance on some weird stuff.
It's Free AND Fun
Hey, what else is there to say, really? Playing games online is free, it's fun, and it's a heck of a great way to kill fifteen, twenty minutes of your day. We're in the middle of a recession right now, and the fact of the matter is, you simply can't afford to turn down free entertainment, especially when it's as fun and as addictive as this.
