I think they give good reviews to the cream of the crop in any genre. I've certainly never noticed them being biased against AGs in any way, which is surprising considering how mainstream they (Gamespot) are. They just don't look as favorably upon the "rest" of the AG genre as the hard-core fans from this site do. And they seem to treat other genres the same way.
