Online Xbox Game Review

I'm going to buy an Xbox game in the next day or so and want to read a few reviews. Does anyone know of an unbiased site that has a wide range of games?

ign.com

Um...I'm pretty sure some people would argue that was biased.

Use www.gamerankings.com or www.metacritic.com

Yeah IGN gets a pretty good amount of people criticizing it for being biased.

Gamestop and IGN have the most comprehensive reviews, but the majority of content publishers that take the time to do reviews also make the majority of their income from the advertisements and/or sales of those same games.

For XBOX 360, I would venture into the XBOX.com forums, or other fan sites like Gamertagpics.com and ask other users in their forums and you can generally get a good consensus opinion from the target audience.

Every 360 game I have played, ign has had pretty spot on reviews for. Gamestops reviews are much more blatantly biased than ign.
