GI Show – Detroit, Labo's Verdict, God Of War Game Club
Game Informer's Ben Hanson, Kimberley Wallace, and Jeff Cork start the show by debating whether or not David Cage and Quantic Dream can pull off some of the deep and sensitive themes surrounding Detroit: Become Human on PlayStation 4. Kyle Hilliard joins the show to weigh in with his full thoughts on Nintendo Labo's cardboard adventures, Matt Bertz to talk about the brutal survival/sim Frostpunk from 11 Bit Studios, and Dan Tack stops by to talk about BattleTech and MechWarrior fun. After some great community emails, we kick off a gigantic community discussion about the first half of Sony Santa Monica's God of War.

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.
