"pop-up" or "new window" for swf game gallery?


Recommended Posts

I want to ask your advice about pop up windows...

Should they be completely avoided?

I am building a site with swf/flash games presented in a thumbnail gallery i have 2 options:

1)make games open in pop up window

2)make game open in a new window

 

I am asking this question because i have read much bad about pop ups.

Personally think its cool to have the game pop up, but people with pop up blockers might

have a different experience having to press the allow pop up button ...

I'm thinking the advantage with a new window is there is a space for an ad and that the pop ups can overlay over ads on the main pages.

With pop ups the game opens and there is no scrolling around the page, and the swf window can be resized to user's choice.

Pros and cons for both...

 

I wanted to ask you opinion.Should i totally avoid pop ups?
