...is now found thanks to the creators of the Internet Wayback Machine. There was a great web site devoted to the Sega Saturn called SaturnWorld back in the mid to late 1990's. Unfortunately, once the Saturn vanished from store shelves, this site disappeared too, and IGN replaced it with less comprehensive Saturn coverage.

Fortunately, clever use of the Internet Wayback Machine (www.archive.org) will bring old (yet not forgotten) sites like SaturnWorld back to life. I entered the address for SaturnWorld into the Wayback Machine's search engine and after a little exploring, came up with this long list of Saturn reviews:

So, what dearly departed gaming web sites can YOU bring back to life with the Wayback Machine? Post your best finds here, as well as a brief description of what you like about the web sites you uncovered.
