So here is something that I have noticed for a couple of years now that I have never really seen discussed and I would like to get your guys opinion on this phenomenom.

The 4 sites that I go to for anything game related "well most things that is" is     IGN.com    1up.com     Gamespot.com    and of course vgchartz.com

I have noticed for atleast a couple years now that ign.com is ALMOST ALWAYS the first person to rate a game. I have started wondering if the other sites wait for ign to rate a game before they realease there own rating to make sure that they are in the ballpark of ign's rating. I have seen quite a few articles that point to ign being pretty much the main source in video gaming news, videos, ratings, etc...

So the question here is do u think that the other sites are just slower or taking there precious time with rating games OR do u think they wait until after ign.com rates a game to put theres out cause they dont want to say something is a 9.0 when ign says its a 7.0? Am I wrong or do u just wish I was wrong? LOL

Thoughts?
