Re: Where do you go for game news and reviews?
I prefer any site where I can put in search parameters and get a "recommended" list. You might make a note to make sure that such sites have all of the important key-words properly loaded against your games.
For general "buzz talk" I prefer newsgroups such as:
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.action
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg
comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategy
As more and more games seem to have devastating problems that cant be found until you try to run it, many people haunt those groups to get the initial impressions of other gamers before they buy. Its often commented that its considered a balancing factor against reviews which are considered to be questionably money-driven on major magazine sites and possibly abit too biased in favor the product.
I tend not to feel that way but I see it mentioned a lot so I thought Id bring it up.
