The Last Outpost was originally started in 2001 when cyke had the fantastic idea of building a gaming site where he could vent his fury and praise about the gaming world on an unsuspecting public.

Working with a fairly basic layout and a shaky administration system as built by Pete, the site generated a small-yet-faithful following and accumulated a fair few decent articles.

Unfortunately, it's popularity was hindered by it's accessibility, being hidden away on one of Gamespy's not-too-reliable servers with a stupendously long URL on what can only be described as the unreachable backside of web hosting. To make matters worse, real life events took over for a while (Boo! Hiss!) and the site fell inevitably by the wayside.

It was all but forgotten until one day the duo decided to breathe life into the site once more by rebuilding it into something better, faster, stronger and, ultimately, sexier. Branching out into other areas in which the team of writers can vent their frustration or just generally babble about, The Last Outpost is now ready to take the world by storm, some four years later.
