I am a bit of a noob and so maybe this is why i am finding this resource so hard to use... but I also cannot register for the support forum - keeps sending me links but nothing doing on registering me. I cannot find a contact link on the website and the registration email bounces back... I would like an arcade for my team's website but not enough to spend hours or much money on it.

The extension itself is very nice looking and the games (4 of em) run very nicely...

i also like how it says

* Please only upload zip files.

when only .tar files seem to work (which if you are uploading proarcade games 9/10 they come in .tar format)

good script though, need a real arcade script? use this ;)

Honestly, its everything a community based website needs, all i can hope for right now is native in 1.5.
Easy to install, easy to use, to set up and it works flawlessly.
Thank you for this

This is a great stable component, and the next version will be even better!

I am really impressed by this component. It is easy to install and it works!!~
Sincerely, I appreciate this piece of art. Thank you!

This has to be the best Game component there is for joomla. I have this on my site and is extremely popular. Every time there is an update for this it keeps getting better. The support for this is fantastic which means if there are any problems they get sorted very quick.

Nice one Pragma and all who have contributed!! :D

This is a really nice games extension that I would like to have on my website. Unfortunately, I'm getting warning messages at the top of the page that could be a security risk so I'm having to uninstall it. The advice I got from the forum didn't help me. It's a shame really, I like this arcade.

I tried this component, at first i looked good and worked fine but after a few tests there seems to be some bugs with the template (VII - rocket theme) i use. In IE7 page is scrolling when u try to control the moves in a game. The developpers dont seem to have a solution either the producers of the template. In Firefox there seem to be a scrolling problem. When u start playing a game the game does not stay in position. So i have to remove this component wich i did not like to do, coz it looks really great. Shame

Does a great job of organizing, installing, playing, and maintaining flash-based games on your Joomla! site. Games can be organized into categories & folders with thumbnails and descriptions. Does high-score recording for logged in users. Very simple and effective, installs easily and gets up-and-running just as easily.

I'm surprised nobody commented here since new version came out. I have not used any older versions, but this new version is top notch and ass kicking. I have seen some websites with older versions of this component, and I really wasn't impressed by PUArcade. 2.1.1 really takes this component to the new level.

It uses AJAX rating system, optional commenting and shout box, allws you to create your own folders and sort the games as you see fit, both view and play permissions, CB profile tab, great high score tracking, compatible with a lot of game formats.

Thank you for this component!!

Pragma provides great forum support,
new developers are helping with features and modules,
Large and active community of users,
forget reviews of the older systems which were good the current component is exceptional.
Stores most IBpro scores without a hack to the index.php this is helpful when upgrading Joomla and the php file changes, and do you really want to hack it anyway?
There is a rating system now--we can expect a highest rated module soon I'm guessing.
It's fairly easy to change the look and feel of the arcade. If you want just a few games or a large number this is a must try. I experimented with other systems as well as older PU versions and this one rocks!

This is the component to go with if you are setting up an arcade on your site! It installs easy (and I am using JSMF from Joomla Hacks). Being able to add the games I want was also a major point that made me decide to use PU Arcade. Sure there are others out there that you install and loads of games are available on your site but also loads of ads you have no control over. The support on the forums is also fast and other users are also willing to help where they can. Oh, By the way, I have found loads of games that are compatible with PU Arcade. I have installed within 1 week, well over 100 games ALL of which keep high scores!

Keep up the good work Pragma.

I have installed the previous versions too. But the latest version 2.1 is working very well.
Easy installation. I had some issues but at the forum at their website there was a solution very quick.
Games from IBP and PPHPBB are running good, although not every game wil submit a highscore.

Thanks for this great component.

I like this component not only because it bring us the possibility of setting up a game arcade to entertain our members, but also because it provides the feasibility of extend the collection of games by ourselves.

I intalled this on my website and it works very well. Hope this one will be better and better.

Many thanks to the author(s).

Even the first version (which did not have a way to customize which games would be available and just had 5 classic arcade games) had my COMPETITORS playing games on my website and giving me traffic.

Now, with the customizable version I can provide games that are appropriate to the different sites I create.

It just keeps getting better!

I have never written a review for an extension that I used off this directory before, mostly due to the fact that so many great reviews were already written.

But after searching and trying many other components (ones hosted on other sites) and reviewing commercial based ones. I decided to try out PUArcade...and I am completely amazed by the work done on this component!

Easy to install, adding and customing games and their categories is as user friendly as it gets! Not to mention the amazing support provided by Pragma in the forums.

This component is a definite MUST HAVE for any site looking to keep its members entertained and consistently coming back to the site. As of this review, version 2.0.3 has just been released which supports even more games!

Simply Wow!!

As owner of IMNetworked I couldnt have found a better component. Visit my site to see the arcade in action or view the sample demo on the website provided.

Cheers!

Unbelievably EASY to install, configure and display! Took me less than 5 minutes from woe to go! Now I have a fabulous new feature for my site! Kudos to PU!!! I wish ALL extensions were this smooth and easy.

This arcade system is the one to go with.

Pragma is constantly working to improve the arcade and develop modules.

Users on the homepage also help very fast.

Not many questions go unanswered.

If you are having problems with the program and have a SMF bridge installed go to http://www.pragmaticutopia.com he has a work around for you.

Easy to install new games. People love seeing there names as the top dog on the high score list.

He good person that is very helpful.

This is an awesome component, very easy install and set-up. The games are smooth and loads of fun, talk about old skool games that bring back some sweet memories!

A great addition to my site and sure to please alot of visitors/members.

Thank you for the work to create this and look forward to more.
