Sounds promising, but also too vague to be enthusiastic about. What do you think about it? Ofcourse, if all promises come to the world this would be awesome, but the site it's based on (Videogamebible), never was as exciting as the name would predict. Will Knurdz change this?

Heya,

I didn't even realize people had noticed our "other" project yet.
But I do want to clarify it is not based on VGB but incorporates
VGB's library and has absorbed it's entire archive as just a small
part of it's massive infobase.

Thanks for your support though. :D

I'm looking forward really! Now who is behind this? Not only you, I guess! Something for CD-i to look forward to?

After browsing through the website I think Knurdz will focus on new systems only, so that looks like less older-games and more focus on new games? (Otherwise you would have expanded the oldergames brand ;) )

It will cover everything. Part of the CD-i stuff is what I was wanting to
chat with Devin about. Think of KNURDZ.COM as our homebase for
all of our operations and OlderGames.com will be under the KNURDZ
label but will be expanded quite a bit in the near future.

There is a lot to look forward to but I can't say much at this time
other than what has already been said and that we have been
working on it for several years with a decent sized team. :D

The preview looks very professional.

What I'd like to know is what's KNURDZ going to offer that other gaming websites don't? I remember you had early thoughts about an all embracing games network from the very beginning of oldergames. If it's a community focused games website for all formats then that would truly be something unique. Also a thing I would seriously DIGG being a supporter of forgotten formats including CD-i (obviously!) and now the 3DO! Power to the people :D

Bas,

I just gave Devin the grand tour from under the hood. Get with him and
He'll let you know what he and I discussed. I'd like you to join our conference
chat next week if you decide to take a stab at it too.

He can give you all the info. but remember it's still VERY classified. :D
