Back in 1998 I moved my geocities site (Dexter's Ultimate Cheat Page, I kid you not) to it's own domain and renamed it to CheatFiles.com. From that moment on I was playing with the idea of multiple sites covering different things. The initial idea was Demo-Files, PatchFiles, Trailerfiles etc. Demo-Files.com saw the light in 1999 and was a great success. After playing the Soldier of Fortune demo in I believe january 2000, things swifted around and I was gonna focus on a game-specific site; SoFFiles.com! The site turned out to be a huge success and EFFiles.com (covering Elite Force) was introduced september 25th 2000. Now I don't remember exactly but somewhere around that time I started a little forum callled GamingForums at http://forums.filesnetwork.com which later became GamingForums.com. When FileFront got much more involved with the network (and had been for quite a while) we merged FileFront's forums and FilesNetwork forums into 1 and kept the name GamingForums. The rest is known history :)
