Always thought it was strange (and maybe it's just my perception), but
the Apple II community seems very, very small in comparison to its
other 8 and 16 bit counterparts, specifically in gaming.
C64 has http://www.lemon64.com
Amiga has http://eab.abime.net/index.php
DOS and Atari have too many to count
But there really isn't any dedicated Apple II gaming forum even though
it had hundreds of games.
Alex Lee has http://www.whatisthe2gs.apple2.org.za/forums/ which
surprising is pretty quiet most of the time, although it's geared
toward the IIGS specifically. Any thoughts?
