  • Best Game Review site?

    Are any sites out there good? They all sound the same to me. It is rare to see a real negative review on any game. I believe they are all paid by the software companies to write positive things, therefore, they are a waste of time. Have you found any that are respectable?

    none that I can find anymore.

    gamespot charges a subsription just to read a review!

        Gamespot doesn't charge, and they aren't averse to saying a game sucks.

        Best though are usually fan forums IMO.

          Lots of crap games received good marks, that's how it works (Chrono Cross, Black&White)
          I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

            yes the black and white review suckered me in.

            I rely more on demos and similar games of that type (infinity engine) to help me decide now.

              Or spend 10$ a month for computer mags filled with stupid jokes and boobies

                my computer gaming world magazines are still coming in. They are a pretty good mag. I doubt I will renew though. In fact they should have stopped sending them, but they keep coming in.

                  I do not know how good the reviews are, but I do know they do not get paid.

                    I don't know... I kinda like Gamespot. It turns out I don't often agree with the opinion of their reviewers, their video reviews coupled with the user reviews are usually enough for me to form a more or less informed opinion on the game. I also like, as someone mentioned above, that they don't mind saying a game sucks. They have no problem criticizing features. And from that I can figure out for myself if I would really not like that feature or not, also.

                    Besides, $20 a year? That's nothing if you ask me. The same amount of stupid jokes and boobies as DF gets, but at a lower cost.

                        Then you have to use Gamespot, for you get them there for cheaper than in print. Now, if you were a stupid jokes addict, you'd have to subscribe for IGN.

                          I don't like boobies, WAY too squishy

                              I'm building a wagon! On some other part of the internets, obviously (but not that other site).
