For American dates they are typically very good, Japanese and European dates typically are worse. Considering I run through all the games between now and christmas almost every week, I wouldn't be suprised if I see a lot more inacuracies than the normal user. Maybe I'm updating before they get to it for the following week, but who knows.
I have found on more than 1 occasion where every store you could buy the game has a certain date, yet gamefaqs has another, only to change a day later. In other instances, gamefaqs has had the wrong date after a release date change anouncement for at least 1 day.
I'm not saying gamefaqs sucks or anything like that. I'm just saying I don't count them as the "golden standard" for release dates.
