    Default Shutting Down GamerHistory.com

    Ok, enough is enough... I'm shutting down GamerHistory.com . I'm letting the hosting expire 7/27/2009. If there's anything you want off the site, grab it before then. I don't have an offline copy of most of that stuff anymore.

    If for whatever reason somebody wants the site, data, or domain names, let me know.

    Details here: http://www.gameoftheart.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=878

    Ugh. I can see why they didn't film that ending to Blade Runner. Way too blunt. :/

    Sorry to see the site go. You really had some neat stuff on there.

    Wild, had no idea someone on here ran that site.

    I ran across it on StumbleUpon and Google and remember browsing for hours. So I know many will miss it seeing as you are somewhat on the search engines out there.

    Shit, that sucks. I had some real fun digging through there and learned an awful lot of nifty stuff.

    Sadly, I wouldn't be able to devote nearly enough time to do it justice either How much data is on there total?

    The database is only about 20 megabytes, the rest of the data probably only takes less then a gig. There may be something in the works to keep some of the information availible though, someone has expressed interest in the site but i don't know the details.

    The amount of content is small enough that I could probably mirror it at the very least. It'd be nice to keep a lot of that stuff available online.
