The flash games area is red hot at the moment, both in terms of domainer interest and also developers, still to think it got almost as much as jobs.net.au is amazing, though it (onlinegames.net.au) is a much more practical name in terms of someone actually building a site on it.

FWIW, I am of the opinion that Jobs.net.au was bought cheap...

I think the onlinegames.net.au price was hugely overpriced.

It takes a lot of effort to get a top ranking games site. Lots of strong US competitors. Sure the volume might appear to justify it but the ad revenue that you make is very low.

Completely agree; You'll notice that organic rankings from 'online games' are all us based sites. It's really indicative of how tough a market the online games niche is when there are no Australian sites in the top 10.

I agree. I remember watching the auction at the time thinking what are those bidders thinking given that it's not a geographically influenced term in the eyes of Google.
