Interest Check: Free Adventure Game Hosting?

[Magic]

I think the title shows the general gist of what I'm going to say here - I run a mod gaming site (www.samods.org) that hosts mods, articles and 'stuff' for the fans that make it and we've started hosting indie games, mainly a wholly fan-made RTS at the moment.

Since I've come into contact with the AGS forum during my Techs project, I'm wondering if adventure game makers here (with finished versions) need hosting. It would be entirely free (The only thing I ever want out of hosted projects is for them to bring attention to the rest of the site  ) but initially users would be left to set up their own site over FTP as we're redeveloping our main site.

Any thoughts?

Depends mainly in how much bandwidth you're offering.

[Magic]

Enough.

See the 'Sweet Dreams' package here. We're barely using most of our bandwidth.

Well, it's definately a nice offer.
I would come back to it if I have a properly finished game someday.

read the fine print.. a lot of hosts pull a sly one when it comes to bandwidth overflow and you quite often get charged a huge amount

A downloadable Lassie game was released on saturday 30 meg, at the moment its consuming 28GB on avarage every 24hrs, plus people are downloading other games on the site which increases it even more

my own site was wiped out in 3 days (10gb at the time) with a simple 2meg game lol

once the blogger and game sites get wind of the games and hot link its very hard to keep control

like i say, read the contract small print, if an offer sounds to good to be true it often is
