Gamefaqs user-reviews are what I like reading.

Very few people with agendas and the reviews usually have a lot of interesting info.

Totally. Especially if you aren't looking to buy a game at launch. Waiting to see what a bunch of people who did buy the game think is huge.

What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about?

That's what I thought before GTA IV and MGS4.

As a Nintendo fanboy: nowhere. Can't seem to trust anyone to do it quite right for either of those platforms these days

Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

I am a fan of zero punctuation

But for when he doesn't do reviews i'll with metacritic generally and compare critics to user reviews
