Ever wonder why so many reviewers release reviews a whole ten days before the game is actually released?

I've never really been interested in Alan Wake but these reviews are making me think it might be worth checking out.

because no other wesbite has forums anywhere near as good looking, fully featured, and functional? GB's forums, for instance, are a disaster.

GameSpot doesn't do early reviews because they don't like the deals involved with them (such as, "give my game a 9 or higher and you can post your review two weeks early). All publications say that these deals never influence their final scores, but GameSpot says they don't want to take any chances.

Haha. after the whole Kane and Lynch thing I think that is pretty debatable.

Couldn't agree with you anymore. Not only are the reviews late but they are usually terrible.
