Title: Gamehippo dead?
Post by: shockedfrog on July 01, 2008, 08:53:53 PM
Gamehippo seems to have become one of those stupid search sites now. Could just be a blip, I guess, but if not, wow, end of an era. The site hasn't been its old self for some time now, but I was optimistic that the new owner was eventually going to sort things out.

Right, seems it's just the domain, the site's still available via ip (216.92.35.228). Crisis half-averted!

The-Underdog went through the same, until they eventually got an .info domain.

We miss the Underdogs. Hasn't updated in so long! As for Gamehippo, didn't that die like, years ago? When it was hacked or whatever?

Actually, that was pretty good in retrospect. Sent me voyaging for new sources of Freeware, letting me properly discover HOTU and eventually leading me here. So, uh, Huzzah!

Wow.  That's a shame.

I haven't really been on that site in some time though...
