    We have an OLD site. demonews.com it's semi-dead. Think of it as quarantined. ;) http://www.demonews.com/

    PE and I (mostly PE. Lets be honest here.) have been working on reviving and revamping the site with some features and design that we will be putting into MajorGeeks 3.0

    We are putting the finishing touches on now and wondering if ya'all could kick the tires and make sure things are working -- and make sense.

    Here's the beta https://www.demonews.com/ct3test

    Thanks.

    Now drop and give me 0000 0001

    Layout looks good and a great list of games..........probably a waste of time.......for me.....when I should be doing other things but instead, I will probably be playing games from demonnews......
    BTW I like the easy index system on the side :)

    It does seem to work correctly here on my end. Just FYI: The cookie policy is not EU compliant.

    The underlying software is EU compliant but the privacy policy needs an update ;). Look like it is from 2005.

    I had been to to old site. This is 100% different. I downloaded one game. "Last Stand". Seems good for what it is. I can't play keyboard games. I look for mouse control only. More titles need to tell in description about controls. Could save not downloading something and then not being able to use it. Some titles already do this. Kudo's

    Is that the zombie shooting game? If so, I played that about 3 years ago. Loved it.

    I doubt it. There's no way to choose to reject certain types of cookies and other tracking stuff and the new EU Directive on e-privacy (which is tied to GDPR) demands that you do give users the choice.

    Because that types of cookies are rejected for visitors from the EU and EEA by default. There are also no personalized ads (with tracking) if you are visiting the site from the EU/EEA.
