Your Favorite Game Preview/Review Websites... - Blu-ray Forum

Roland1919 · 03-29-2008, 04:00 AM

I really enjoy gaming websites, for those of you that read the boards you know that I posted a thread earlier inquiring how much of an influence review websites had on your purchasing habits. Now I want to know what your favorite gaming websites are. I know mine in gamespot but I also enjoy metacritic, ign, and worth playing. I also get 3 gaming magazines delivered to the house but thats another thread.

gamespot used to be my favorite until this generation came and now they (and their members) are so biased against the ps3 that I can't stand reading any of their reviews. I only go there for my pc news now. For my ps3 news I go nowhere else but psu.com (playstation universe). That seems to be one of the only places where I have seen fair ps3 reviews without all the fan boy fighting. Yes, I am a ps3 fan boy, but I hate to participate in all of the fan boy battles that most sites have regularly. Every once in a while at psu.com we get some damn xbots coming on and talking crap but it doesn't seem as often as on gamespot. If anyone has any suggestions as to any sites besides psu where you can at least get unbiased ps3 reviews, then I would love some of these.
Thanks.

EGM! I wish Shin-Ra will write review on any game he played.

I would say ign.com, but I can't stand their critics or lame countdown lists.

Shin-Ra · 03-29-2008, 01:20 PM

I can't get too enthusiastic about any gaming site any more. I loved Gamespot back when Greg Kasavin was working there.

I prefer gametrailers, or ign for video reviews.

The thing I don't like like about gamespot's reviews
is they'll occasionally throw in a complete spoiler without warning.
