I would like to know what the best (top 5 to 10) websites are
for finding cheats and hints to PC and console games. I would really
like to find some that also list DVD easter eggs. I understand that this
is strictly your opinion and that's exactly what I'm looking for,
however, a brief reason as to why you think these sites are better than
the rest would be great.

Hello Silver_ps2,
Among the sites in the list, I’d put the About.com site topmost. It
would be the most comprehensive I know and would link to most other
sites, plus the administrator (guide) is not a snob (to me at least).
I also used the names of the games I play and saw what sites came up
first in the Google search. I used “game cheats” and saw which came up
first and which loaded properly, so that’s my basis for this list.
