IGN: The Source for (Only Slightly Biased) Reviews

IGN is perhaps one of the largest and well-known sites for video game news, reviews, cheats, guides, etc. They also pay some mind to television and movies, though video games are their first and foremost concern.

This site is an excellent source of reviews (not so much news; whenever news is posted, it tends to be superficial and related to pop culture more than anything), and I recommend it for those who are looking for that kind of thing. I should warn, however, that IGN is slightly biased in their reviews; they fall into the "big, macho man gaming" trap, tending to favour sports games and action games with plenty of explosions and nearly-naked women over role-playing and alternative games. Regardless, still a solid recommendation.
