Favorite Gaming Sites

I just thought I would take a minute to promote some of my favorite gaming sites. These are places I trust with information for various things. Review sites are a dime a dozen, so I try to stick to the ones that matter. I also receive a few print magazines, so I don't read as many reviews online. However, here are places I visit for different types of gaming:

Just Adventure - If you like adventure games, JA is a worthy stop. There are a lot of honest opinions here and most of them are right on. They cover mostly PC games, but some console versions of RPGs as well.

The Spoiler - After trying out some of the games recommended by JA, you will likely end up here. Some of the best guides available, for various RPGs and adventure games, exist here. If you are really lucky, the game in question involves one of "Sinjin"'s solves. He creates and entire Web site devoted to each of his guides.

GameFAQs - If you are not too ashamed after checking out some spoilers, GameFAQs is another logical stop for hints and guides. Most games have more than one and the reviews are fairly good as well.

GameSpot - GameSpot used to be the online extension of CGW Magazine, but it has been on its own for many years now. I still think they have one of the most honest review crews on the 'Net.

Board Game Geek - This is the home of the "uber" board game enthusiast. The gang here not only reviews games, but they post complete play sessions to show you how the games flow. There likely isn't a game that exists that isn't on this site. Once a game is out, they are quick to review it. An excellent resource.

RPGDot - This is still one of the best resources for RPG gaming of all types (computer, tabletop, etc). They run daily news, guides and have all sorts of excellent information to give you your RPG fix.

IronWorks Forums - If you are playing some of the classic RPGs of recent years (Baldur's Gate, Morrowind, etc), there is a huge community of help here. I've gotten a lot of decent information on the inner workings of my favorite RPGs from the IronWorks.
