www.gamespot.com www.1up.com Just go to IGN or Gamespot, they have vast reviews on PC games as well as console games | ||

Sites like Gamespot and IGN aren't too good when it comes to reviews since, while all video game reviewers tend to get biased, these two sites are generally the worse when it comes to bias. They don't even really try to hide it either. Just throwing it out there but "Let's Plays", where a bunch of people play through a pretty old game, is a great way of finding whether or not a game is for you or simply finding games which you have overlooked. But of course it depends on whether or not the people presenting the game are actually presenting the game and not simply trying to be internet heroes and doing stupid shit. | ||

They hype shitty blockbuster games and don't know anything about know indie games, mods etc ... The best reviews are made by gamers not by sell outs. This is the kind of site where you will read that broodwar is an obsolete RTS and Supcom is a way better game. If i want to know if a game is good i just watch some gameplay on youtube, then i read forums and ask a couple guys what they think about this game. For example on TL i highly regard TheYango's opinions about games ( especially RPGs ). | ||

Basically the site compiles all the reviews a game is given, and averages the score. Since reviews can often be biased, it's a great tool. You'll see the averaged score given for the game, and more often than not, you'll be able to click any reviews you're interested in, and it will take you to the site's review. It will also tell you what issue and page any magazine reviews came in. The site doesn't really do a lot news coverage wise, but it's easily one of the best places to go for reviews. http://www.metacritic.com/games/ | ||

honestly you can barely even trust metacritic any more after GTA4 became the highest rated game ever (or top 3 or something) when it sucked that bad. gametrailers reviews are absolute garbage, its like some idiot 13 year old kid writes all their reviews. | ||

I use http://g4tv.com/ to browse headlines because it seems to be updated fairly often throughout the day. Most of the reviews have a video plus a written article from the show XPlay on G4. So basically, any of these would be good. | ||

I live games  Ganfei if you weren't such a bad embittered troll you would know that i didn't talk about the old games that i like but just stated that some recent games got enthusiastic reviews whereas they are highly overated. Also Starcraft being in their top 10 doesn't mean shit. They put it high not because they still enjoy to play it or know about competitive bw but because it was huge in 1998. So i'm pretty sure that they think that bw is obsolete and outdated even if it is in their top 10 Guess who is their #1 ? Super mario Bros. Do you think that they still play Super Mario too ? But why i'm even arguing with the worst poster of TL o,o I mean 650 posts about BG and Torment ? I doubt i have more than 100 which is like 2% of my post count. Now Ganfei look at your 1K of rage / troll / hate posts lol What else is new on TL indeed. | ||
