Metacritic
Gamerankings
and then just look around on those sites.
I usually read both good and bad reviews to get the whole picture as reviews of single websites are often not fully objective.

i always check gamerankings since their scores consist of an average score taken from reviews from different sites.. if i need specifics then i just pick a site that gave the game a good score and a site that gave it a bad score.

Yes, yes, both Metacritic and Gamerankings are exceptionally good, their reviews from the games I have played are near as dam it, spot on. Thanks a lot for the guidance guys.
No more do I have to tolerate that festering puke wrote by has-been brain-damaged f***s on GobSnot, they really do need to seek professional help before they hurt someone.

I love how Metacritic and Gamerankings do it, as already said, you get the overall analysis. (the big picture) Can't go wrong really.

My 2 cent : i usually go with gamerankings, i read some lowest score reviews and some higher score ones, usually i get enough info to understand if a game is worthwhile for me or not.
There are only 10 kinds of people : those that understand binaries and those that don't.

Sometimes the big picture (the average of everything) sucks. I go with IGN, but not GameSpot anymore.

Eurogamer is one of my favorites, problem is it's never extensive and rarely early with it's range of reviews.
Excellent site for what's there but.
Other than that I use Gamerankings for ratings then IGN / Gamespot to read a review to get a quick idea of what the games about.

I think he's making a needless spam reply stating in a round about way you made a needless spam reply.
All good. Hehe.

IGN, feels a little like Gamespot where the reviewers are influenced by back handers and Eurogamer keeps my virus checker busy throwing up trojan alerts.

If we're talking the same eurogamer (eurogamer.net) then you need a new virus checker, it's a clean site.
