I've been looking around for some decent gaming review websites. IGN is getting rather boring, and I have a slight dislike for GameSpot after certain games reviews *cough*splintercellconviction*cough*.

SO ANYWAY, any good sites to recommend? I'm particularly interested in small indie sites, that haven't sold out yet.

You should order GameInformer magazine, it's one of my monthly highlights when I get it in the mail.

I find MetaCritic to be pretty good myself.

GameInformer is good, although I sometimes wonder what the hell they're thinking. Like giving Metroid Other M an 6.75 and gave Batman The Brave and the Bold (video game) an 8.5?!...And it was on the same issue!

Eh, it's good most of the time. The Wii sucks though, so that already degrades games that are on it.

For example, they gave Portal 2 a 9.5, I believe. That's pretty darn accurate to me, since a 10 is extremely rare, y'know.

Nintendo Power is a pretty good unbiased Ninty magazine. On the topic of Other M, they gave it a pretty fair grade of 8.0- they've only ever handed out like 5 or 6 perfect scores in their entire publication history, and since they're independent from Nintendo itself they're not biased.
