Gamespot just gave NG2 an 8 when many publications are giving it a 9. I don't see them as being as inherently biased as many people claim.
In any case, I think sites like Metacritic (and in the case of Japan, I guess the most commonly accepted standard is Famitsu) are simply the best yardstick we have, despite the fact they arn't perfect.
starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS
