Game Review Websites?

Sign in to disble this ad
Which one do you use? I'm sick of Gamespot! Silent Hill has been released for two weeks now and still no review. Reviews were kinda mixed but since Gamespot wouldn't review it, I took a chance and it.. yeah it sucked. They got Dead Space reviewed, yet SOCOM isn't. There's always IGN but that website is over filled with stuff and ads.

Which one do you use / recommend ?

- Click on "continue to the review" when you see the ad on IGN.

- Read review.

Since you already use Gamespot. Look where it normally shows there number rating, and look for critic reviews. Then, click on it. They have most, if not all other sites, and there ratings listed.

Silent Hill dident do to well. Also, looks like they're not alone in not posting a review for Socom yet.

Zero Punctuation is really good for honest, down and dirty reviews. Outside of that, I use IGN and 1-Up.

Christ Centered Game Reviews

YOU SINNER!



I'd recommend Meta Critic. Don't they pile together the reviews from every gaming site?

Try Gamespy.com. I think they are affiliated with IGN.
