Giantbomb vs the world (all other gaming sites!!!)

I have to admit that before discovering Giantbomb and becoming a member I would use IGN, Gamespot, Gametrailers and Eurogamer.

Since joining I don't even want to use the other sites at all, just thought I would list some of my reasons (so far!!):

1) After so many stories of purchased reviews by publishers (if you take reviews that seriously).

2) The amount of content sponsored by huge releases.

3) Sites copy the quick look format (Eurogamer have just started doing a video "talkthrough" which is a blatant Rip-Off).

4) The people hosting other sites video and audio content mostly look totally uncomfortable in front of camera or on mic and are simply no match for Ryan, Jeff, Vinny, Brad, Patrick and the gang who even on what could be a boring game manage to lift it by personally alone (see the quicklook for Train simulator 2012:Trains Vs Zombies for proof).

Are there any gaming sites that have become redundant to you since discovering GB?
