    Good games, but not for everyone!

    The games on "Shockwave" are pretty fun at most times. Being a Shockwave Unlimited member i download some games. The only thing is that when they first release games they usually have a "Virus Threat" at first. It usually takes them a few days to work out the issues before you can actually play it safely. Some games include lots of violence too and there is no real set age limited posted anywhere on the site. The organization of the site is awful i think. You have to click through multiple pages just to see whats new and what might interest you. I will be NOT be continuing my subscription here after it is out. There are wayyyyy to many of the Matching puzzle games and the run around and make people happy games (Turbo Pizza, Cake Mania, etc)...

    Give me a break...

    Shockwave is a great and healthy enviroment for most kids. If you take the time to recognize every little fault and stamp it with a 17+ rating, you must be a virgin Mormon.

    Games for the Post-Modern Disenchanted

    When I first stumbled upon Shockwave, I felt again like a kid walking into a large arcade with a five dollar bill. Several attempts to steer my girlfriend to this site have failed, which is her loss, and my gain in internet time! The few shockwave movies, (forgot the sitename affiliated with them) looked to be very well done, and even, entertaining! Kudos to the vidiots that will never let gaming-for-any-reason perish.

    unjust

    This site has some pretty good games! Not ALL of them have sex drugs and violence in it! The speed racer game was one of my favorites and there is NOTHING bad about that. This site over judges EVERYTHING!!!
