GI Show 229: Minecraft: Story Mode, Starting In Game Journalism, Talos Principle
In this episode of the GI Show, we talk about Mojang and Telltale's unlikely collaboration, talk to our interns about breaking into game journalism, and discuss a captivating new puzzle game.
First up is the surprise news of the week: Telltale's Minecraft: Story Mode. It's definitely not something we ever expected, and host Matt Helgeson has to play referee as Andy Reiner, Kim Wallace, Ben Hanson, and Jeff Cork spar over whether this is a good idea or not.
In the second segment, our departing interns – Matthew Stolpe, Jason Dafnis, and Sam Stewart – talk about their experiences at Game Informer and offer tips to aspiring game journalists looking to get a break.Finally, Ben Reeves stops by to talk about a very interesting new puzzle/adventure game called The Talos Principle.
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.
