GI Show – 2018's Most Anticipated Games, Bye Kinect!
Welcome back to The Game Informer Show podcast! Last week we reflected on the highlights from 2017, and now it's time to look to the horizon once again and map out the gaming landscape for 2018. Ben Hanson, Kimberley Wallace, Andrew Reiner, and Suriel Vazquez each break down the five games that they're really looking forward to playing in 2018. After some great community emails, we're joined by Kyle Hilliard and Jeff Cork to talk about the final death of the Kinect and celebrate its strange, flailing life by talking about some of the peripheral's highlights.

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.
