What videogames sites do you use?

The question is as simple as that. I feel curious about the videogames related sites you use to visit (apart of GAF). They can be forums, blogs, magazines, fansites, official sites of the videogame you are following, official page of companies... whatever.
 
GAF mostly
Gamerankings for reviews sometimes and Gamefaqs for FAQs
1up for 1up show and IGN for "my collection"

Ebay/Play-asia/videogamesplus.ca/amazon/ for buying online stuff.
 
Forgot to say, I want to know (and think that would be useful for everyone) if you use places like Fileplanet to download demos and movies. Or even online shops.

Anyplace related to your gamer life.

general shoot-the-shit-about-games=Games forum at Somethingawful

Xbox information=xbox.com forums or teamXbox
Rentals=Gamefly

Buying games=pretty much anywhere that is having a deal of some sort

almost snap.

Also use gamespot for videos (reviews,previews and gameplayfootage) - I think they have by far the best video system, IGN's sucks for that.

I don't really read reviews anymore on websites. I only read impressions on GAF @_@ how weird is that!
 
gaming news i get from forums, usually don't visit the big sites

i post at gaf, xbox.com once in a while, and the original o p a age, also read ps3forums.com
 
Almost entirely GAF. News, reviews, humor, debate, nostalgia, and WTF moments, all rolled into one.

On slower days, I'll go to the big sites (IGN, GS, 1UP, etc.), and then some of the other VG-related sites (Insert Credit, Majoria's (art relating to VG/anime), Magic Box, Ryu's Form Site, etc.). I also get RSS feeds from Kotaku, Joystiq, etc.

I'm not much of a browser anymore, and instead let most of the news out there come to me.
 
I just use message boards and the larger blogs such as Kotaku and Joystiq. I don't really like the big websites much.... except 1up, the editorial type things and the 1up show are awesome.
 
Well, GAF is normally the best place to get all gaming related news...and even if any of the following sites i visit got their news 1st, it'd generally show up on GAF quite quickly anyway.
I check out the following from time to time(in no particular order):

Joystiq/Engadget, Eurogamer, Gamespot(for the video reviews etc), Futuremark, Beyond3D, GameTrailers, 1UP, Xboxyde, Kikizo, Kotaku, Gamasutra, N-sider, jeux-france and a few others that don't come to mind right now.

Plus Gamerankings and Metacritic (also great for music, movies and books) are good for review roundups.
 
I´m thinking that I can contribute myself

Apart of GAF...

1UP
Other forum I don´t feel sure to mention it
Play Asia
Some blogs (John TV, ToastyFrog...)
Gamasutra
Home of the Underdogs
Insert Credit sometimes
Penny Arcade once a week
Gamefaqs for faqs (duh) of japanese games

And some other obscure places and official pages.

I should have to check more what Gamespot and IGN does, but I really like 1UP for general info about videogaming.

I´m sure I miss things here (I receive The economist if that counts as site)
 
GAF
newsnow gaming (whatever stories pop-up I'm interested in)
A few developers blogs


Used to frequent a whole bunch of forums but the level of discussion on GAF is definitely several notches higher than most.

What? Those other forums don't have a new 1000-reply thread on Japanese sales numbers every day of the week? Pity. THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE MISSING.
 
4colorrebellion and kotaku are on my rss feeds. Although I really just skim over the latter nowadays as it's mostly filled up with trash and mindless ramblings that don't make sense or are thicker than the original Xbox. I fear that I am going to be told: 'You're brain is 80 years old!'

If I am bored then I'll hit up Ign and get read the whatever is there. It used to be a daily visit but the amount of content they've been pushing out this year I only need to visit once a week.

Finally, I lurk on GAF. It pretty much gives me all I need. Good work guys and gals. :)

edit: Bold is proof.
