IGN is more biased toward Nintendo. Gamespot is more biased toward 360. I prefer less popular sites like gamerevolution.com for a more accurate review. coz no game is perfect and no game deserve a 10. i prefer user reviews than mainstream reviews.

IE; the game doesnt perform well, the graphic textures are sub par, it crashes.. etc..

Things like the Gerstmann situation, the Konami MGS4 boondoggle, Matt Cassamassina of IGN (Wii section) being married to the VP of Nintendo's US marketing firm, etc. help explain how games like Smash Brothers and Zelda get anything over 80% scores. Gaming websites that review games should refuse advertising and ANY gifts from companies whose products they are reviewing. There is absolutely no reason an $18 Billion industry can't attract mainstream advertising to their websites rather than resort to lazy, incestous business relationships.
