I do appreciate that they generally (BG3 review notwithstanding) aren't afraid to call out bugs and aren't one of the publications rushing to press with reviews. Even if their scoring system is ridiculous.
I don't know if they are truly any more independent than any of the other big names, especially considering they have a (formerly E3) trade show now. They are also part of the same publishing group as Tom's Hardware, which hasn't been my first choice for hardware reviews for a while.
