I think renting the game and figuring it out for yourself is better than both. Gamespot can be harsh but I trust their reviews more than IGN who gives hype scores to hyped games. I used to like both but now I just check Gamespots pros and cons. If the con seems like a pro I add a few points and vice versa. IGN will deduct points for say sound or graphics and still give the game a very high score.

Love the product, not the company. They love your money, not you.
