Created by Scot Rubin
Launched March 10, 1996
Current status Active

Allgames.com (known as the All Games Network) is an online website notable for being the precursor to G4tv. Launching along the same timeframe as IGN and GameSpot, AllGames has been a large part of the American gaming media for over a decade. The site was briefly abandoned in 2001 when creator Scot Rubin left to start G4. When G4 began focusing less on video games, and more on general male audiences, Scot left the station to resume AllGames. AGN continues today much the way it did prior to G4's launch. The site still airs video game podcasts, all of which are featured on iTunes and other podcast directories.
