Everyone seems to trust IGN and distrust Gamespot, why?

I've never put a whole lot of trust in reviews myself. I've barely ever looked at Gamespot's reviews, so I can't really comment on them (other than what has already been said above).

But IGN's reviews are much closer to my personal tastes than most everywhere else. Sooo, I like to look at their reviews and see what they say, since historically they review games similar to how I would.
