GI Show – Overwatch's Review, Kirby, Uncharted 4 Game Club
The Game Informer Show hits a milestone this week with its big 300th episode, so to celebrate we packed this episode with some real good stuff. To kick things off, Dan Tack joins the show to give the final word on what makes Blizzard's Overwatch worthy of our highest score. After that we have Kyle Hilliard and Jeff Cork to talk about the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutants in Manhattan from Platinum Games and why Kirby: Planet Robobot's ending makes it a keeper on 3DS. We also get to hear Tack's thoughts on the new strategy game Total War: Warhammer. In the back half of the show, we finally get around to our GI Game Club for Uncharted 4: A Thief's End and break down the first ten chapters of the game in great detail. We're covering the rest of the game on this podcast on June 9th episode, so feel free to send emails into podcast@gameinformer.com with your thoughts on the entire game!

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.
