GI Show – The Best Games We Missed In 2015, Star Wars: The Force Awakens Predictions
This year was a knockdown-drag out kind of year for video games. Juggernauts like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Fallout 4 are not only tons of fun, they're also packed with so much content it's easier for some other games to become lost in their shadows. This episode of the Game Informer Show is dedicated to reflecting on some of those overlooked games like Transformers: Devastation, Soma, Resident Evil: Revelations 2, and more.
Co-hosts Ben Hanson and Tim Turi are joined by Joe Juba and Kyle Hilliard for the discussion of the best games we missed in 2015, and they also stick around to answer listener emails, as well as try something new where listeners call in via Skype! We close out the show by swapping in Andrew Reiner and GI intern Joseph Knoop to talk about our hopes and predictions for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
