Remember Asteroid? Space Invaders? Tetris? I came across an Avatar Community web site called menewsha.com. The site has several cool flash games from good old days that you can play online. The site is actually a community web site where you can create your own avatar, network with other members and of course play games in your own avatar. You can also play against other members and the site keeps track of highest score. I’d love to create my own Avatar and play against my school friends back then, and revive old rivalries. The forum has about 65,000 members which is definitely a sizable community. I found that someone had a score of 1994584 on tetris. I’d have trouble getting past 1000 to be honest.

The site has a very interesting idea to monetize- As a member one can buy from wide variety of clothes/items made by pixelists that makes up the Avatar. They are available on their shop. The site also allows you to exchange clothes and other items with other users via their exchange. Users can also create an avatar and sell via their web site. So not only you are playing games but also making money. Pretty cool huh!
