    www.metacritic.com It takes every review from different sites and magazines and makes an average overall score

    Stupid question for the OP - where do you get online game reviews that you have to PAY for?

    +1 for metacritic. I also use gamerankings.com as this gives previews and pre-release news too

    + 1 for metacritic; though I also like the writing of Eurogamer, particularly when they review "bad" games as they go Yahtzee on them.

    Taking a slightly different slant to the question. Is there anywhere that gives comprehensive reviews of free games?
