Seriously back off Cklmb, that was completely unnessecary. |
Beat me to it so I'll second it.
IGN is my main source with Gametrailers and a little Yahoo coming in second. I go to 1up/Gamepro/Gamespot for laughs every now and then.

Aww... Nintendo games didn't get 10s? |
VGChartz mod standard at its best.
Yes, gamespot has lost some credibility. I now go by forums to see how games are and if one sounds interesting, I check it out at ign.
Yeah, I finally have a sig.

I couldn't disagree more. User reviews are often fanboyish in nature and you never know how many games that user plays a year. How much would you trust a user's Heavenly Sword review if they had never played God of War before? Pro reviewers are generally unbiased as possible, they play a boatload of games a year (and therefore have a better idea if a game's features are new, innovative, or just another rehash of another game), and they generally have some kind of experience in writing and journalism. |
ckmlb said: Also, user reviews on Gamespot will likely have a majority of people who love a game, why? Because they will take the time to write a review of a game they loved. So I don't check user reviews too much on any site. |
There is no way I will answer this, it can then be used against me when I want to complain on a review.
Gamespot and IGN are the two I read regularly. I generally lean toward IGN because I like the other reviews that come with it -- i.e. the international IGN ones. That said, after I check both, I'll check gamerankings.com and see how they fit in with the big picture and look for any large deviations from the average from a reputable mag... If there is one, I'll read it just to see.... It works for me pretty much always. There are few that I completely disagree with...
