Game news sites? Full PM-box? Change here!

Does anybody know a good site for news about PC games? The only ones I know is www.gamespot.com and www.hotgames.com, but they both have a problem, the first one you need to register to be able to download videos, and the second one only talks about few games...

Does anybody else has some good site?

Got spare money?

You could try pc.ign.com. They have sites for other platforms too. That has a similar problem with paying for extra stuff, but I usually find I can get enough info and downloads without subscribing.

There must be some better sites out there, but I can't think of any right now. What I usually do is read about games on ign and gamespot and if it sounds interesting then I go and find some fan sites for it, they usually have pretty neat downloads, and many post links to reviews of the game.

That's how I found Apolyton, actually.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

Thx for the link, but it seems like they don't have the video I was looking for, I was looking for an E3 video about The Sims Online!

* FrustratedPoet makes the sign of the cross with his fingers.
* FrustratedPoet tries to find some garlic.
well ... if I'd known you were looking for info on The Sims I wouldn't have tried to help...





only joking ... sorry that didn't help much. Are you looking for an official video or a ShakyCam one? Any official videos will surely be up on the official website pretty soon, once gamespot and ign have had their subscription-only fun with it. Hopefully Maxis (it is them, yeah?) won't be so mean as to make you pay for it ... but then again ... this is The Sims we're talking about!

* FrustratedPoet balances his domestic co-efficient and reticulates his splines
