GameFront returns after two years of downtime

GameFront, also known as FileFront, has risen from the ashes after two years of downtime.

A team of volunteers were supported by DBolical (ModDB, IndieDB, SlideDB, VRDB and others) to retrieve and restore 20 years’ worth of files, restoring GameFront itself in the process.

“The new site utilises data which was backed up by the GameFront team, who have restored it to its former glory in an all new custom built website, meaning it will be the definitive place to find all the classic GameFront files, with previously lost author, description, readme and other metadata fully restored,” the site said in a press release.

Moreover, “the site also features fully restored news articles, as well as the original GameFront forums,” the release proclaims.

I personally used GameFront to mod the crap out of Star Trek: Armada, so I’m glad to see it back. Do you plan on checking it out?
