I see there are at least three PC magazines to stay away from if you want a honest opinion.......They probably use the same talent pool to get their reviewers from, the ritalin-overdosed pimple faced 12 year olds who dont understand anything that doesnt include the term RTS in in......

Add PC Zone (UK). I still remember one from years ago where they reviewed a certain tank sim, saying "it would be more realistic to walk around the garden looking through a drainpipe" and scoring 18%. The game? Steel Beasts.
Some have a decided bias against particular genres, too. I do enjoy 'adventure' games from time to time, and every time a really decent one comes along with great puzzles and storyline Gamespot will score it 4.5, and declare it's games like this that killed the genre. They've been doing that for the last decade and, oddly enough, it's still there..
