The IGN factor

I've decided that I'm just going to go to IGN.com to get all of thier reviews due to GameSpot being 5 days late with every games realese date and IGN.com being two days eariler. Also, IGN reviews movies, CD's, DVD's, and comics, so that while I check on game reviews I can check those out as well. And GameSpot's review of Mecs 2 pratically confirmed it. The only reason I'm staying here is because I'm a level 20 and I've been with GameSpot for a long time, who knows, maybe if I like IGN enough I'll leave all togther.

I'll agree on the review aspect of your post, but I won't go back to IGN for their community, they allow way too much abusive language and spam, practices that GS does a great job of regulating.

Well, like I said I'm not going to switch communities...yet. I'll take that into consideration though. Thank you for posting

IGN reviews are great, but their community is terrible. Every board is near dead or filled with losers. And too access many of the features you take for granted on other sites are only accessible by being a paid member of IGN Insider. You gotta pay to have avatars. Plus their forums are set up in a dumb fashion. It really seems like only GameSpot and to a lesser degree Giant Bomb have a good message board set-up with enough people to keep it interesting.

IGN's reviews and community is too poor for me. The reviews are early, yes. But they don't say much besides if the games graphics and gameplay is good. The community, and the prices at IGN are absolutely awful.
