[good reading] article about game portals on "escapist"

I disagree with that statement. I saw a lot of new fresh ideas in casual games market during first two month of 2006. I can give you a few examples:
Bola
Trilinks
WarBears
Ninjaman

not all of them are new, though.
bola for instance is a usual "swap 2 to get 3 in a row" (bejeweled, jewelquest ...)
ninjaman is a (very well done) game like "ninja" (c64)

you get the point. if i dig deep enough i will find a similar version of all games above (ok, maybe not trilinks )

Who is left? I see the same ppl here, several new guys and all oldies in the place. Anybody missed?

mhm. true, at least nobody i *miss*

You can - that answer lies in quality. I didn't see any China based web design company which works on the level of 2Advanced for example. Therefore if the customer needs something similar to 2Advanced product he'll never go to China market.

2advanced *shudder*

I'm just really anal when it comes to games, memory like a steel trap, but can't remember my gf's birthday. Geek memory I believe it's called

*sigh* and i thought only i have this kind of "selective" memory
