For PC games there is also Rock, Paper, Shotgun if you could call what they do "reviews"

I'm actually not familiar with them. Time to correct that.

I appreciate Ars Technica because they go into more depth about explaining the features of a game individually and also explain gameplay mechanics. Then they go about expressing what they think of these features and mechanics (the opinion part). And finally they don't just slap a number to the game. They summarize a list of good, bad and ugly (sound familiar from my VGChartz Ranking Game reviews? )

Rock paper shotgun basically just tell you what they thought about the games, no scores, just pure opnions, they are often good at telling you the kind of experiance you could expect more than running down features. Probably a good companion to the more technical aproach of Ars.

They have also been known to actually do some journalism from time to time
