In my efforts to find a decent new MMO to sink my teeth into (and to have something to do on a low budget of course) I find myself thinking that there's no decent hub for general ratings, information, news about new, decent mmo's. Is this just me? I know most of you will think you should try them yourself, but with limited access to the game through demos/trials you can't really decide on the MMO as a whole package. What sites do you guys use to judge MMOs in general? I understand it's difficult to get a true rating, afterall it's largely opinion, but still through endless searching nearly all sites relating to MMOs generally have completely skewed and unrealistic ratings and "popularity" listings, listing freebie MMOs that have obviously used incentives or bots to get their rating up on said site, making the ratings for that site pointless. I often find myself going back to MMORPG.com, which is only slightly more realistic and informative and often finding myself just clicking on a game, looking at the hype section and see one guy saying "omg this is the best mmo I've ever played" then some other saying "Actually the end game is lacking and theres no customer service" this leaves you non the wiser beyond playing the entire game yourself. So what hubs do you guys use? With so many varied MMOs out there and a rapidly increasing population in them you'd think there'd be AAA standard reviewing sites, with thought out rating methods. Also it'd be nice to see a site that constantly updates said ratings and reviews, because unlike non-MMOs, MMOs require decent population, GMs, customer service, updates etc, and I rarely see any reviews that take this onboard as they change through the years.

. The video reviews by them are really good, even though theyre usually 15 minutes because of youtube.
