When I first started playing at Armor Games, I had almost zero problems loading & playing. Now it seems at least half of the new games will not load after the title screen (usually locks after hitting "Play&quot. Sometimes I don't even make it to the title screen.

I've updated Flash to the latest, but no help. Running WinXP Home Ver 2002, Service Pack 3 and IE 8. Any suggestions would be appreciated. (Example game: Culmination) Thanks!

I honstly have no idea sorry. Mine seems to be working perfectly fine. You may have a virus that is afecting your computer. I suggest you do a full scan.

Try a different browser. If that don't work, check to see if there is anything on your computer that could impair your gaming. (i.e. Parental Control/Securities) A virus is probably not likely, but you could check just to be safe.

I can tell you that this issue runs deep.

At the moment for me all the games work except a few games like bazooki, which works for nobody. Try updating to Windows 7.

The only reasonable explanation is that your computer needs to be updated, no offense.

Thanks for the replies. Too painful to upgrade just to play flash games, and I'm not crazy about Win 7. Was hoping someone had the same issue and figured it out. Guess I could try Chrome.

Are you using Explorer, Firefox, Chrome ? etc.
If you use Explorer, you might consider changing it to Chrome or Firefox.

Just tried loading Culmination with Chrome, locked at the exact same place.

Try firefox. if it doesn't work, and your flash and everything is up to date, it's either a virus/malware, or it's just your computer. Can't think of anything else it could be.

Play the flash game on an administrative account on your computer.

Go to this site, your number should be something like 11.1.102 (mine).

If you are in Chrome, check to make it is the most up-to-date version by clicking Wrench (upper right) - About Google Chrome (15.0.874.121 is latest on mine).

Hold ctrl+shift+n to open an incognito new page on Chrome and go on the flash game.

Download CCleaner, run it, try flash game again.

Take a screenshot of it locking and post it here.

Flash version is the latest, Chrome is actually later than yours, ran CCleaner, tried incognito mode. Same problems. Not sure how a screenshot would help - for instance, tried Legend of the Void. Clicked Play and got to the main menu. Hovering over menu options turns pointer into "hand", but clicking does nothing.

Other games work fine, such as Theme Hotel and Home Sheep Home 2. Yes, my O/S is old, but should have enough beef in the machine to run a stupid flash game. I would expect some type of error message if there was something wrong with my machine. Thanks for all the suggestions, guess I'll try firefox next. Not holding my breath though...

There are some problems going on. If you click on the strategy tab, the first page of games will not display. It says "No games were found". It would be nice if someone from Armor Games would confirm a problem or at least respond in some way.
