It’s a feature-length episode of The Game Informer Show this week. Marcus, Charles, and Eric gather together to discuss the games they’ve been playing lately, including the charming new 3D platformer Big Hops and return visits to games like Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, Dragon Age: The Veilguard, and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance.
Then, the trio get into a discussion about the subscription services in gaming that they still do, or don’t, use. From Xbox Game Pass and PlayStation Plus to various battle passes and MMO monthly subs, there are a lot of expenses that can easily add up. Are they all still worth it, or are we cutting some as part of our New Year’s resolutions?
