I personally use GameInformer, if i don't want to wait for the magazine or visit the website i might check out IGN, though they tend to be QUITE biased in their reviews, you can still get a general feel of the game from them.

Gametrailers - Purely for their Invisible Walls podcast. They are more than happy to be complete candid on their views on a game.

Eurogamer - If I'm splashing out ?40 on a game. I want someone to be over critical on the gameplay and niggles.

Sethos - I count the amount of bile produced, if it's over 5mm I tend to avoid the game.;)) ;D

Failing that Metacritic to get a overview of the scores. I avoid IGN & Gamespot like the plague because they are on the take from publishers for scores.

Yeah I have to agree, Sethos is a good indicator if I'll like a game or not.

Otherwise I like to read and watch as many reviews as I can, but I rarely base any purchases on what they have to say.

Gamespot....very trustworthy.

Gamespot is a joke! After that whole ordeal when they fired Jeff Gerstmann for an honest review on "Kane & Lynch", they really shed light on how they operate. They lost a couple great guys there, which ended up forming Giant Bomb. Which for some reason I cant bring myself to check for reviews.

I check the reviews on 1Up, IGN, and comparisons on GameTrailers.

GameTrailers and IGN.

The first are usually spot on with my opinion on the game and have the only video review that sounds right.If I watch an IGN review I feel like in a retirement home. :D But their rating is OK.

Haha that is the first thing that came to mind lol Sethos is a very good indication if it is my type of game or not(Y))

I really enjoy Gametrailers overall presentation in their video reviews. Yahtzee for the laughs and if possible a demo to determine whether it is worthy...
