    I like rotten tomatoes - same reason as for the movies - you get a summary of all the professional reviewers.

    Yeah, I didn't think about that when I made the poll. I considered user reviews, but I kind of merged that together with "Other Gamers with Similar Interests" in my mind. Maybe that didn't seem so clear to others.

    Yeah, that's definitely why I'm a little more interested in those reviews. You can kind of tell when certain reviewers from these sites rush through games just to get a review out, and that doesn't really make for a good review (not even mentioning the other things that could influence a professional reviewer).

    Didn't realize they had a section for games. Although from the looks of it, I think it needs a little bit more time to develop.

    this is the best category, cause if you have gamer friends who REALLY play games that you enjoy, they can give you the best recommendations cause you trust their judgment and that they aren't "FAKE" gamers.
