Best Games of 2024 (So Far) And Anger Foot Review | GI Show
In this week's episode of The Game Informer Show, the crew attempts to highlight the best games of 2024 that have launched between January and July. This is not all-encompassing. Rather, it's more a conversation about this year's early standouts and other releases we plan to visit before our official Game of the Year discussions in December. Before we properly dive in, Marcus breaks down his review of Anger Foot, developer Free Lives' new first-person shooter. Afterwards, Alex highlights a small desktop game (literally) called Rusty's Retirement. We hope you enjoy this episode and find new games to play!

Customer Reviews
Long time reader, brand new listener.
Love the show so much! I’ve only been listening for the last 3 or 4 months but I love the energy and even thou there is a lot of change I’m a long time fan of Alex Van Aken and I know the show is in good hands. Keep up the excellent work! Love the articles and videos from the team too! Cheers! -Matt aka Stormageddon
Constant virtual signaling
How has this show gone so downhill. Uninformed political driven drivel.
Complain incessantly about Twitter. You would think people in the media would appreciate free speech. Stop constantly whining as it is embarrassingly drab.
Game Informer Physical Subscription
Thank you for offering a physical subscription of the magazine outside of GS. Can’t stand that company and their horrible customer service. Signed up for a two year subscription as soon as I heard about it on the podcast. Was disappointed when I could only get digital through the GS subscription I had. Glad I am finally done with that and GS. Now I can get a physical copy directly from GI and never have to deal with GS again. It’s obvious they will be out of business soon. Good riddance when that day comes. Also like the gift subscription option. Will be getting that for some people I know.
