Gamespot lands up on the second spot for the wide range of content they produce for Gaming news. While the site keeps you updated with new video games, there is always a unique insight of their own.

Nintendo Life lands for three for its detailed news reporting. Reporting it is one thing, but breaking it down to the core is another to look at.
