Every post whining about the weekly update delays it by 5 minutes.

I had a very similar thing, only I threw a 14 story building out of a pool and hit a kid on a paper aeroplane.


The Flood is just this awesome :D

So far, the only one that I can think of that actually puts out semi-decent stuff is Game Informer.

GameInformer is one of the best.

IGN. No really. People hate on them but honestly they have a lot of good articles and seem to really appreciate good games.

They even warned people black ops declassified would likely be terrible before it was released and they were right. If they really are sell outs they could have gave it a 9 or something.

Professionally, Gameinformer is all you really need. A subscription to that will keep you informed on everything.

By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.

They give every big title, regardless of quality a 9/10. IGN are basically the prime example of overpaid merchandising whores who have no idea of what they are talking about.

OT: I haven't found a completely reliable website or magazine yet. "Gaming Journalism" is a joke.

It's not the best but I find GiantBomb is who I agree with the most.

I've heard good things about Giant Bomb and Polygon. Thoughts? And does anyone still buy gaming magazines?
