Where are people getting their info these days? Is it still Gamespot and IGN like it was five years ago?
All the old standbys are dead. I still have that house organ GameInformer. That's pretty much it. I'm not sure if my Edge sub ran out or the mag died...
You mean excluding TNL? Hahaha, ok I'm done.
When I just want raw game news: NeoGAF.
When I want well-written reviews, articles, and tech comparisons by people who know how to play games and write: Eurogamer. There really isn't much competition for them out there.
When I want to just see a video of someone playing a game and get really mad at how bad they are and/or how little research or work they put into their videos and wonder what value they bring to the industry at all or why they even exist and have a fanbase to boot: Giant Bomb.
If it wasn't for TNL I'd honestly would be more behind on the gaming news more now then ever.
Tnl is my only source. You guys cover all the crap i would care about.
I get EGM, game informer, and gamer.
Im lucky if there is enough content in any of them to last me longer than one good poop session. EGM was really nice when it relaunched, but i guess the purse strings have needed to be drawn tighter. I see fewer informative articles these days and more shitty previews/ oral suck fests.
I blame it on Brandon Justice. He's a tool.
GAF is best for news.
Rock Paper Shotgun is excellent for PC stuff and finding smaller games missed by everyone else.
I also read Eurogamer and Edge, but to a lesser extent.
And after having an account for years but never reading the site, I'm finding that the Something Awful gaming forum is pretty great.
Pretty much just forums and a few fightman specific sites.
Pretty much just TNL, really. Occasionally I'll find out about cool homebrews and projects on other forums. I don't think I've ever been to a normal gaming site in the past several years that wasn't a link posted in a forum.
Gamefaqs, Giantbomb, TNL
Don't care about the rest.
I will have to amend my statement, I do visit Gamefaqs. I don't participate in most of the site though.
Just the FAQs, ma'am.
I used to go to AndriaSang, but that closed up. Chrome says Insert Credit has malware on it now.
Silicon Era has news on things I like that is mixed in with a LOT of JRPG news I usually don't really like. Unfortunately the quality of the writing is rather low and the site is in a constant state of being broken and filled with audio ads now.
