So what sites did you used to go to, do they still exist in some form or are they dead and what are your favorites?
Gamesages (http://www.gamesages.com/) Gamefaqs wasn’t the only site that had large walkthroughs, files and codes and cheats. Gamesages pretty much had everything even a little section that helped everyone find all Easter Eggs or hidden sections in DVDs. It in it’s prime was as big as Gamefaqs but sadly IGN bought them out and now almost all the content is gone and most people pulled their content from the site when the merge happened. Gamesages is now known as codes.ign.com
GSCCC/CMGSCC (http://www.cmgsccc.com/) The site that had the best Gameshark and Codebreaker codes. The CMGSCC did not own the Codebreaker that was Pelican. The owner of this site did codes for the GameShark and came up with the best hacked codes and eventually was hired by Gameshark. With most people sick and tired of Codeboy from GameShark CMX the owner left and eventually joined with Pelican to create the code breaker. Eventually, though he had written about Codeboy and what he did to market his codes was wrong and he took advantage of the consumer, he eventually nickel and dimmed all his services to the point even when you bought the Codebreaker you still couldn’t get all the content. Eventually for the best codes during the end of Codebreaker they were going to put in the idea you would have to pay more to see the best Codes. Hell you had to pay now to even request a code. This never happened, with the DMCA Treaty even though the courts ruled against Nintendo which let people hack Video Game Systems the DMCA was used to protect Video Game Systems. Pelican bailed on the CMGSCCC.
The site is now badly named Codetwink. CMX unknowingly did research the name Twink as most WoW players call themselves twink, the name itself is pretty much a slang name of Gay Slender Males. originally it was thought to be an insult to those PVPing with epic gear but the kids just ran with it. Site never gained traction nor has any of CMX’s new work. In fact he was convicted in a Federal Court for hacking.
GGCCC A Game Genie Creators Club (http://www.videogamesource.com/genie/) Like Gamefaqs, it started on AOL and evolved from there. It housed the greatest gaming minds and made some amazing codes. Sadly, the site is not defunct and dead. The Codes they protected and held a copyright on and would go after anyone who put their codes in their walkthroughs of FAQs only helped dig this site deeper into it’s grave since all those years of hard work are lost. You now have to hope to find their old codes around the net but yes a once great site is dead….
AOL Keyword: Gamewiz Anyone on AOL in it’s prime remembers Dr Gamewiz. It was the place to go for everything gaming. Sadly Keyword ANT and Gamepro paid AOL a lot of money and brought in advertising and pretty much bribed AOL to remove the Forum Gamewiz. Poor old Dr Gamewiz even years after would still have a mailing list but eventually died from a heart attack

I used to get bored during IT Lessons and you could rarely go a lesson without "Access Denied. Banned URL: GeoCities.com" or something
