VGChartz. I heard one of its reviewers kills puppies.

We need some evidence about it!



Polygon

I don't think you can get worse than that...



Just read Gamingtrend's review of SMT: Apocalypse. Apparently sexist character designs are a legitimate reason to dock points from a game.

So happy I use opencritic now, so I can just click a box, and no longer see terrible journalism in action.



I usually don't read reviews so i don't really know who is bad but from the several other articles i read online, i don't like Poligon, Kotaku and Gamespot. Poligon beause i think they are unprofessional, kotaku is to political and do loads of clickbait articles and GS is also unprofessional, they once did a E3 live stream and one of them was making stupid and basic knowledge questions like it was the first time he was hearing about that game and console when they were already presented months ago, that kind of dumb cringes too much to bare.

I remember when Gamespot used to be good. Greg and crew were stupidly accurate with their reviews. Now, Gamespot is just a clickbait site. IGN used to be good too. It's still decent, but they've went from genuine news to opinion articles, and speculation. They also cover way too much T.V. and don't dedicate enough staff to game coverage. 



I don't really give lot of credence to review sites in general. However Polygon was definitely one I rolled my eyes at as they often condemned games from Japan at one glance. I'm not interested in their personal agendas when it comes to gaming news or reviews.



poligon and destructurd



None of them.

I usually trust a friend's opinion.
