The problems I see with this are multitudinal. Not that it's a bad idea, just consider:

o Doing so would require a re-working of the inner workings of Abandonia, which is already in the process. So really it'd be a re-working of the re-working.

o So we make a 3d games section. But wait, there are 3d Adventure games, 3d action games, 3d puzzle games etc. So we'd need to esentally double the available categories, making a 3d version of each. Either that or you're asking for a new "abandonia 3d" site all together, and think of all the hassle THAT would entail.

o Assuming this is implimented on some level, what counts as 3d? Do pre-rendered isometric views like Diabilo or StarCraft count, or quasi-3d like Klax?

What I would like is if the next version of Abandonia had multiple category tags for games. That way an action/strategy could be in BOTH categories, etc. So if it's a 3d action game you could just push the 3d tab and get 3d, and push the action tab and get all action games. but we'd have to be careful, this could get rediculus. If 3d gets a tag, shoulden't 2d, VGA, EGA and CGA each get their own tags? It's a slippery slope my friend.
