We need to send them an email. How can they skip the best site on the web?

Well, I would have to say, if they missed GameBoomers they weren't all that thorough on their research. lol

Well, the best always eventually surfaces - so it's hardly surprising that Gameboomers has now appeared on their pages devil

Thanks for the link, Marian, looks like a very tasty site thumbsup

I like the database that separates adventure games by type. A good find!

That's really a great site.
I just wish they didn't use that flash that takes forever to load.

Very good site!
Tried to creat an account by the name Volkana and it's already been used smirk
I had to make up another name... If you see a Volkana member there it isn't me

One of the things I find very helpful while researching the Database is it states what type of controls, mouse, keyboard or keyboard/mouse.

Thanks Marian, I too am enjoying browsing the Database.

Gelert has done a fantastic job for a one person site.
