The interwebs is power.You can find just about anything on the interwebs.Including tons of things about PC games.

I have learned of many games by reading or seeing something of them on the web.I really like the other games screen shots section.It is a great promoter for games and the people that may have an interest it will get sparked by seeing an image or reading of a game.

Another great example of this would be the AARs that get posted.A while back Raptor posted one from an The Operational Art of War III campaign he was playing.

I read it because I had played TOAW 1 back in the day and seeing that thread made me think of the game and I went and purchased TOAWIII from Matrix Games.

I also learned of War in the Pacific:Admirals Edition the same way and Kerbal Space Program spread like wild fire among subsim members because guys talked abut it here and within a month or so several games section regulars where playing it.

I say promote but dont push.
