About review sites, as I don't bookmark them all (and even if I did, my bookmarks are a bloody mess) and I always forget some, I like VGC and GameFaqs games databases because they provide handy links to other sites reviews and other useful infos in a neat way. For older games, PCZone's archive online is still useful for me, but it's only one site and magazine, I can't guarantee they can meet someone else's tastes, and they are specialized on PC games. |
For game reviews, I generally go to metacritic and look over reviews from websites I trust, and maybe a few random reviews for views. Most of the time, I just look at Gametrailers and IGN because when I talk to my friends, those two websites have kind of set the standard for us. They are really massive reviewers.
What is with all the hate? Don't read GamrReview Articles. Contact me to ADD games to the Database
