Here're a few ....

Do you guys know any websites that're dedicated to specific Golden Age games?

What definition of "Golden Age" are we working from here? For some reason, if someone says "golden age" and "video games" to me, I'm thinking late 70s / early 80s. Of course, I realize that to an increasing number of our readers here, that time period equates to Bronze Age.

Not challenging your definition or anything, but just wondering...what it is.

Golden Age > Computer > 1984 - 1993

Guess Tie Fighter doesn't count, since it came out in 1994

edit
WCNews for all thing Wing Commander (click the background link to get game specific information)
Dune 2
Warren Robinett's Page (maker of Rocky's Boots, one of the best pieces of educational software ever...came out in 1983, though)

OOPSIE ....

I made a slight typo that I've since corrected.
Sorry, sorry for the mix-up lol

And how could I've forgotten "Wing Commander -- Combat Information Center"?
Good call, Phosphor!

I'd agree with PDF...the late '70s/early 80s were the Bronze Age

Eh, "Golden Age" classifications make no sense to me. I'm sure that years from now when we have amazing game concepts and the best control EVER, people will still reminisce about Crystal Castles.

I think the "golden age" is a personal thing, not an actual set of years, which makes "golden age" sites also a personal thing.
