Just wondering which Game Review websites people use ... I tend to
mainly use Gamespot, IGN and The Wargamer plus of course the NGs. Not
that I think that they are necessarily they're the best but they do give
me the information I need to decide whether I'm going to buy a game and
if it's just a complete turkey.
What other websites do people use?
I never both with review sites. If I want opinions about a game, I'll
ask here on usenet or go to a game's discussion forum. The only time I
read reviews is if I'm googling for facts/info about a game and Google
turns up a review with the info I want. Even then I'll take what the
review says with a huge pinch of salt until it's corroborated by
another source which isn't a review.
