A mix of IGN, Gametrailers and Metacritic.
Metacritic is first, to see if the game has a decent score or not. Then I watch video reviews on IGN and Gametrailers to see why the game has gotten good scores and what the title is about. They usually line up pretty well with what I like. If there's a game you are interested in, you're pretty safe with the IGN video review for that game but Gametrailers is a good second opinion.
Even if a ridiculously low score brings down the average on meta, there are enough scores to compensate for it and at worst the average would be brought down by maybe 1 or 2 points. Not really something I worry about.
