I get my gaming news from the community via Reddit, Twitch, and direct from the developers on Twitter et al. now. I know these too can be manipulated but in general I'm talked down to far less by these sources than by the gaming press at large.

That said, Niche Gamer is alright if you don't mind seeing a lot of anime in their articles. I don't care for anime games as a rule but it doesn't offend me either.
