Old school quake 1/2/3 news portals! Those were fun. Classic example today would be https://www.quakeworld.nu/

Oh yeah, so many hours spent reading all the original Quake sites back in the day, Joost Schuur's Aftershock, Blue's Quake Rag, sCary's Quakeholio, Redwood's Quake Stomping Grounds... such an exciting time, it seemed like there was something new happening every day.

Stephen "Blue" Heaslip is still at it, ~24 years later, doing daily updates [0]. Full archives stretching back to 1996. Quite a bit of history in there.
