GI Show – Final Fantasy XV, Adr1ft, GI Game Club Finale
We're sorry that the podcast is late, but we wanted to record the show later than usual so that we can cover a couple of the week's biggest nuggets of gaming news. This week Ben Hanson is joined by the great Andy McNamara, Jeff Cork, and Joe Juba for a fun show. We cover the gigantic event held unveiling news about Final Fantasy XV, why Adr1ft is one of the best VR launch titles, and what it looks like when Nintendo makes a social-media service on the iPhone. The back half of the show has Joe Juba, Ben Reeves, and Ben Hanson return to the world of Final Fantasy VII to discuss the game's ending and to announce our next choice for GI Game Club.

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.
