Does this sort of site exist?

A website where it catalogues where various articles on computers games exist. I have 90% of the PC Gamer mags, all PC Accelator mags plus many others. I am a big fan of older games and sometimes I like to read some of these older articles when I get these games. It took me forever to find reviews of these games. I would love something
that I could enter the game name in a search engine and it tells me which magazine that game has an article in.

If something like this doesn't exist and I would like to make my own program/website that will do this. But before I do that, I want to make sure I am not working on something that already exists.

Tsk, Tsk... What about classics like Master of Magic, Outcast, and Thief? :)

I guess I can start an attempt at it.. I could even add a submission system that will add articles about games and stuff. Someone (probably me) would have to confirm that the magazine exists with that info and then add it to the database.

I know ASP, but I have always wanted to learn PHP. The same goes for MySQL.

BobberFett - LOL, That is a sweet site! It doesn't seem to archive magazine reviews though. Is there a copyright issue when printing out reviews from a magazine? I wasn't think of printing the review, just the magazine, page number, and perhaps the type of article it is. I am definitely bookmarking that site though! It looks like a great resource for online reviews.
