   For anyone who is new to the online video gaming industry, there 
   is one thing to be said about the online video gaming directories and various 
   services. They can be very complex and sometimes a pain to navigate through. 
   
  Regardless as to whether you are looking for flash-based games, 
   or a good old-fashioned MUD online role-playing games, they can all be found 
   if you do know how to look for them. 
  The old term MUD, has been outdated for a while now. So if you 
   are looking for an online role-playing game, but what you really need to be 
   looking for is a MMORPG. What this stands for is Massively Multiplayer Online 
   Role Playing Game. These games can be a lot larger than anything you are used 
   to or may have known in the past. 
  The first thing that you will find is only the top-rated games. 
   Others become quite confusing due to the fact that the top-rated games are chosen 
   by the game players themselves in exchange for bonuses within the game. Although 
   this is not really allowed, most games as well as the directories circumnavigate 
   this rule and let it go anyway. So what this means is that the top-rated games 
   that you see one of these directories, is only top-rated due to it having a 
   high number of players. 
  Some games like Chosen Space, as well as Kings of Chaos can have 
   well over 10,000 active players at any given time. 
  Along with the massively multiplayer online role-playing games, 
   you also have the ever popular flash-based games. In most cases these games 
   are free and can be quite addictive. A simple search in the search engine for 
   "free flash games" will bring up a multitude of sites to choose from. 
  When looking for flash-based games, you need to know that it will 
   take place. Serious a bit of time, in order to download the game before you 
   can actually play it. Some games can be very difficult or even impossible to 
   complete, so therefore a simple search for cheats on the various flash-based 
   games can help you along your way. 
  While some of the flash-based games sites will not allow you to 
   utilize the flash game on your website, some actually do as it is all based 
   on the licensing of each individual game. 50% of the sites actually produce 
   their own games and therefore can offer you a JavaScript-based connection that 
   you can simply copy and paste directly into your website so that any of your 
   website visitors can play the flash games that you enjoy as well. 
  With all the choices out there today, it is hard to make a decision 
   as to what type of game you are actually looking for. While the massively multiplayer 
   online role-playing games are mainly turn-based styling, you may end up running 
   out of turns and have to wait a while. This way it can be shortened with ease 
   by playing the various flash-based games while you wait for turns to build back 
   up.
