Reader Discussion: The Holiday Lull
It's Tuesday, which normally means that we get tons of new releases – except it's also a Tuesday in December. Every year, the closing weeks of this month dry up in terms of big-name titles, and the trend continues into early January. Do you welcome this breathing room in your busy gaming schedule?
Even though the list of new releases is sparse, people are still playing plenty of games. How do you use this annual lull? Do you catch up on your backlog? Play various DLC packs? Avoid gaming altogether to focus on family? Or do you just sit there impatiently twiddling your thumbs and waiting for mid-January when new games start releasing again?

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.
