Gametrailers.com is Fair
At least in my opinion. Generally they almost exclusively produce reviews about Xbox and PS3 titles but they do have a section of their site dedicated to PC games. Silent Hunter 5 is listed on that page and I believe a video review is pending. From my experience with the site, I can tell you when they don't like something, they point it out in a big way. Often, they show the bug, glitch or bad game design in the review video. Big game studios or not, they all can become cannon fodder at review time if their product is sub par. I think reviewers should be honest and true. The gaming industry is worth billions of dollars and they should be developing great games with those kinds of financial assets behind them. Each title is roughly $60 whether it be for PC or a console. Replay value is a big factor with games and it should be. The awesome thing about these simulators is that you could very likely play for years. True, you could get burned out but overall, the game is still fresh no matter how much time you spend apart from it. This is especially true of Silent Hunter 3.
