GI Show – Red Dead Redemption 2, PlayStation Classic, Spider-Man Game Club Part 2
Game Informer's Ben Hanson, Jeff Cork, and Matt Bertz share gameplay impressions of playing Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2. Brian Shea and Matt Bertz also talk about playing NHL 19 and the excellent NBA 2K19. Then we dive back in time and talk about the announcement of the PlayStation Classic and playing old NES games through the Nintendo Switch Online. We also cover the latest Nintendo Direct featuring Luigi's Mansion 3 and Animal Crossing and Valkyria Chronicles 4. After some great community emails, we dive in deep on the middle section of Insomniac's Spider-Man on the PlayStation 4 with our GI Game Club.

The GI Show podcast is a weekly recap of exciting releases, exclusive details on upcoming games, and in-depth interviews with developers. Watch or listen to a new episode every Thursday!
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.
