09.17.04: Internet Games Database

While it's been tried before, as far as I know a fuctional online games database still doesn't exist. Ya know, something like the IMDB, but for pc & console games. A graphics-light reference resource for finding out information such as release dates, developer details, ratings, trivia, and so on.

The closest I can come up with is gamefaqs.com, but their focus is less on the game itself and more on the gameplay. Still, I'm sure there'd be crossover.

I know I'd use the hell out it. Is it something the web is missing, or is there just not enough demand to justify the work involved in putting together a site like that?

Update: mobygames.com

There is definitely a void for what you are describing. The video game industry is not a multi-billion dollar industry. It deserves a home the likes of which you mention.
