Another extremely useful one to me is https://www.doesitplay.org/

I'm not OK with games requiring a download. And developers don't always do a good job of making it clear when they do. Or a handful of games might be nearly unplayable in the version that ships on disc/cart. This website makes a point of testing games unpatched and offline.

It's not a big deal for everyone, but the site is a crucial resource if you care.

I came across this recently and it's a very useful tool. This year I started to take notice again and find myself more and more going with GOG, offline games and physical discs.
