What websites & magazines do you all read for the latest on gaming goodness? Any features there you like in particular?
What incoming game title(s) do you strive to keep up on, like Half Life or Thief 3?

1. The Wargamer (thats a no-brainer huh?)

2. PC news (IGN.com)

3. Gamespot

4. Blues news

I access about a half dozen other sites, but usually just for reviews, not news.

I check out 3dgamers.com, the planet; and any mag that looks interesting. Usually PC Gamer. Being a WWII junkie, I'm watching Brothers in Arms. Oh, Look at the blood fly.

I usually get my information from PC Gamer and Gamespot. For downloads, I usually use Gamershell.com. They don't charge anything or require a membership and most of the time downloads are pretty quick.

Since getting back into the old board wargames with utilities such as VASL, I've found www.boardgamegeek.com to be indispensable.

I argued with gobeavs about this one night - really people should stop on to the IRC channel, gobeavs and I go at it all the time, and it's not always just Source engine vs. Doom III engine.:D But anyway, I can't stand the cluttered and disorganized look of Gamespot. I use it now and then for specific things (their beta center mainly, and a few other things now and then) but I can't stand using it for regular gaming news.

I check Wargamer.com on a daily basis for the news and the reviews (sounds liek a advertising slogan! :) ). They have some very good reviewers over there that you can know you can trust when it comes to decide to part with your hard-earned money.

Subsim.com also gets my attention for the naval angle of wargaming, as well as Gamespot for the non-wargame titles reviews and previews.

Of course, I also look for info right here on the ACG forums.
