What are your go-to sources for game reviews and finding new games? (self.games)

Any websites you like or Youtube reviewers? I prefer reviewers who also check out obscure games and actually point out flaws.

Console gaming mostly since PC has Steam reviews that help out.

I've always used Metacritic since it aggregates reviews, but it seems to have gotten worse for searching and finding top lists lately. There's gotta be better sources nowadays.

Worth A Buy on YouTube is very honest. He's funny and cynical, a bit like Total Biscuit used to be.

He's one of the few I trust now for an honest review. Would highly recommend him as he's also incredibly entertaining.

Oh yeah Worth A Buy has popped up for me a few times for indie games, and he seemed like he was straight to the point.

I got a Total Biscuit vibe too. I miss that guy.
