Having a single site which links to all the rest makes it easier for redirecting the games. Because after they are redirected via DNS they will be trying to access the server by ip address and if there are multiple websites with same file name for the html file at the top of the website's structure they will be accessing the same file. Like sonic adventure and confidential mission could both have an index.html at the top of their website and this would cause problems when hosting them both on a single server.
Anyway having a web portal to direct to the other game websites gives us the opportunity to do some other things. If you'd like to view what we have so far you can see it here: http://dctalk.no-ip.info. There are still a few pages which are incomplete. We've been designing this website around the planetweb browser. If you'd like to see how it looks on Dreamcast just load up the site on your DC browser. The chat button the left frame will open up planetweb's irc client to our irc channel. We plan to put a database of vmu files in the download section so people can easily acquire vmu games, game saves, etc as well.
The plan is to direct all the games' website buttons to that web portal where you can then click the game sites button to select which site you'd like to view. It's a couple extra links to go through but this makes it easier for us.
The only way we can have every game go directly to the game website right now is through modifying the disc with hex edit.
