    Anyone got any good sites for Games reviews. Multi platform preferably.

    I like Game Revolution , it has good and to the point reviews, but it is very US biased.

    Any others I should look at

    I wouldn't be much of an e-pimp if I didn't suggest www.eurogamer.net for all your games review needs... :)

    (Being entirely fair and unbiased; it's a reviews site with a European angle and I can absolutely vouch for the fact that none of the reviews on it are ever influenced by the publisher/developer of the titles, unlike a lot of print mags which basically sell review scores.)

    EuroGamer is excellent but generaly slow [ie] the game is out and the review is published on EuroGamer maybe 2-5days later or even more. (not for Vice City though)

    There are not many sites out there that you can absolutely trust and EuroGamer is 1 that you can.

    Yeah - this is something the guys are really working on though, and even if the final review isn't done in time for the games release, you'll almost always find a hands-on first impressions piece on the site before launch now. Ultimately the aim is to have every major game reviewed on or before the day of launch - that's something that should be sorted by the new year, thanks to the new editor over there :)

    We're working on the game reviews and we're slowly getting better, but hopefully we'll be supplying a healthy amount of review material come to christmas and after.

    The reviews at www.avault.com are usually quite detailed and well written, although they don't have the same broad coverage as some other sites. Still well worth a look though.
