What is a good PC game news site or blog? No mega corporations like IGN, Gamespot, etc. I was a longtime reader of (
http://www.firingsquad.com/) until a couple of years ago when they shifted focus to include console games. Since I don't have new consoles, I can't be bothered to read news about them.
I recently have gotten into using an RSS reader so I'm looking for something that will come to me, perhaps a couple of articles a day with news about recently released games, reviews, good stuff like that
So anyone have any suggestions? Thanks :D

'Legends' would be taking it a bit too far, tho'

Legends in their own lunchtimes, certainly.

WAY too far. Conversationally drunk, more like.

Tried (

Console only games tend to be put in the Consolidation sections and are thus easily skippable.

RPS is like a puppy, it's just all over the place spreading pure joy. Every game seems like best game ever. Except Fallout 3 which they dared to call slightly off.
Obviously, that gets annoying sooner or later.
Plus I don't exactly trust a PC-only news site where everyone plays 360.

When RPS is good, it's really good. But often, there's a lot of inane drivel you have to wade through to get to the good stuff. (I mean, a report about hentai PC games in Japan? I'll pass on that, thanks! :p)
Even though it's part of the IGN umbrella, and even though there are articles about consoles: (
http://ve3d.ign.com/) Voodoo Extreme still has a PC-centric focus, even after all these years. Unfortunately, there's no PC only feed available, though.

Are you confusing it with IGN? RPS frequently makes fun of terrible-looking trailers, awful demos, or just plain bad games. They're far more blunt about it than any other games journo site I've read.
