People still read that crap?

What's wrong with IGN? Their reviews usually agree pretty much with what I think of those games.

IGN's central focus is about making money. While that is true for almost all review sites, there's usually a tipping point where the desire for increasing profits directly competes with honesty to your reader base. Unfortunately, most people take the greedy way out and take the money. This is exactly what happened to Tom's Hardware and why their so-called reviews are now completely worthless. IGN is fast heading in the same direction, if they haven't already arrived at that destination.

In the past, commentaries, articles and even scathing review/preview forum threads have been wiped out due to pressures from the higher ups. I haven't bothered reading an IGN review, or preview, in years. It's just not good for my heart to consume that much salt.
