Why don’t most game portals say who made the games?

princec - None of us here are representative of typical casual gamers - we all know far more about the industry, the different games, and the different players than the average consumer in this space.

BTW, when will there be another beta of Titan Attacks?

In a few days.

Thanks for pointing that out James, I have some work to do

I think when I first began promoting the games several years back it wasn't clear to me who was the developer or publisher so I made an educated guess without enough research. In part it also had to do with who I was getting my titles through on an affiliate basis and wanting to give them credit.

I strongly believe in giving credit to the creators but I did stop linking to the developer/publisher site for traffic leakage concerns. I don't feel any threat whatsoever by mentioning company names. In fact, it helps my users understand that I am not the original creator of the programs and if there is a technical concern, outside companies must be consulted to resolve the issue.

As for the related DFG resources you mentioned on the Gamehouse page, those were titles Gamehouse was promoting on their site and I was getting through them on an affiliate basis.
