VGMdb hosting GMR Online database
About a month ago, I got a message from Mik in which he stated that he had decided to close GMR Online, partly because he lacked the time to maintain it, but also because VGMdb has been successful in achieving most of his original vision for a user-submitted database of game music albums. We all felt that GMR was too valuable a resource and historical record to lose forever, so Mik offered to let us host a write-locked copy of the database here.
You can view the GMR archive at http://gmronline.vgmdb.net/ This moment certainly gives us pause -- it's like the passing of an old friend. I remember some of my early days in this VGM hobby, probably back in 2001 and 2002 when GMR online was the go-to site for info about albums. Mik was definitely a pioneer, and GMR laid the foundation for later sites including VGMdb. Much appreciation goes to Mik for his years of work, and for allowing us to keep this resource available. The original gmronline.com URL will eventually be redirected to point to the new archive. |
