Correct... both are a pile of flaming garbage... "less fake" is still fake. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Their "retro game" vids where they explore old games and the tech behind them.

Lmao you can judge by their battle for bikini bottom rehydrated reviews.

IGN: Kid game is too easy and too kid friendly

Gamespot: Kid game is too hard and and kid friendly

They are both terrible, although IGN is marginally worse since it's more political and GameSpot still has connections to proper games journalists.

IGN is just like Kotaku and Polygon, i.e. desperately spewing divisive political garbage designed to fragment gamers, in order for them to keep a small number of extremist readers and thus justify doing a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ job of games journalism. If these journalists actually had any moral principles, they would be consistent with applying their moral criteria ... but they are not. Small European developers get shat on for not having enough ethnic npcs, whilst Nintendo and Sony get a free pass on these "issues". You do the math, the reasons for this are very simple. So these journalists, at Kotaku, Polygon and IGN, are morally corrupt frauds. They have diguised this corruption as "social justice", but it's just a fascade designed to attract weak-minded extremists so that their magazines can survive.

You shouldn't support either of them, they will fail eventually since amateurs on Youtube and Twitch do a much better job than they do.

It's better if you support an amateur on Youtube or Twitch, they are far more deserving of your time and money, of having their dreams realized, than these snobbish pretentious a-holes who don't know anything about gaming yet insist on lecturing you about it.

neither
i dont watch them.
and i do not read their articles either.

[Out Of Bubblegum]

Watch? Why? Just go to their web site and see all the articles to read.
I like Ars Technica and Techspot.

IGN did help me a few times with their guides but their reviews are horrible

[TwisterCat]

I hate both with a burning passion, they manage to find their review journalists from god knows where, I sure as hell don't, they're both absolute shills when it comes to AAA games, that IGN Sims 4 launch review giving it 7.5 undeserved shill stars, or the Gamespot Call of Duty Cold War review giving it 7 shill stars.

If you held a gun up to my head, directly to my head with a bullet in the chamber and yelled loudly into my ear forcing me to choose, I'd probably say Gamespot is the lesser of 2 evils

[Dracoco OwO]

Seriously you might as well try the games yourself, you can't trust whatever those "journalists" says in 90% of the instances.

You just answered your own question.

that IGN Sims 4 launch review giving it 7.5 undeserved shill stars, or the Gamespot Call of Duty Cold War review giving it 7 shill stars.

That you disagree with their reviews means nothing. Do the ongoing sales figures disagree with you?

I think it's an appropriate time as any to mention how the CorpoRats force their journalists to give certain scores on certain games, IE FIFA GAMES THAT ARE IDENTICAL TO EACH OTHER!

It's not that I disagree with their reviews, that's not the full truth. What I disagree with is how most of their journalists, on smaller indie titles, completely lack any form of understanding towards the story, and only judge from a gameplay perspective, but then somehow when a game like TLOU2 comes out, they sweep gameplay under the rug as fast as humanly possible to shill in a disgustingly shilly way, making excuses for the game because they were told to by their hivemind leader. Same system, different name.
