    Default Game launch from website?

    Why do some games have the system of redirecting players to their main page to launch the game? Security reasons?

    The only company I know that does that is ijji, and don't ask me to fathom their methods.

    acclaim did it, but you still could bypass that by using an exe file in the game folder
