you could check out the reviews on g4tv.com (used to be called TechTV). It's official like ign and gamespot but they like to make fun of games they find weird or they don't appreciate especially naruto games in US english. But I recommend you anyhow cause they do show you how buggy a game can be, pros and cons of each game and also it's funny.

i seldom trust reviews done by "media" to make purchasing decision

i realize a long time ago that every "media" company out there is funded by game ads. hard for them to be objective when their sole purpose as a business entity is to collect more ads money.

i prefer to research abt the game features in game previews or look for user (real life customer) reviews.

Not necessarily la...most magazines and even online reviewers although show the game ads of a particular games (some even full page ad)...when the review is out, those games got bad reviews too (but at the same time, the ad is still there).

Yea same ere, Gamespot is a great one-stop resource for all gaming related news.

On the local front, do we have any local sites/publications/blogs which write original reviews for games?

I've started contributing a page on video games in the new men's magazine "Clive" so look out for it. My stuff appears from the 2nd issue onwards.

Can't be as bad as Hypertune right?...lol. That magazine is 80% advertisements, 10% content, and 10% copy-n-pasted articles.
