We're nearing the month of December, which means Geoff Keighley's The Game Awards are soon upon us! The nominee list is out, and Marcus, Charles, and Eric are here to react and provide some insight into what the voting is like for The Game Awards.

Before all that, though, Charles shares some early impressions of the zany, speedy Kirby Air Riders and a new indie rogue-like called Morsels. Plus, we close the show out with another edition of GI Oughta Know, this time all about the history of The Game Awards!

The Game Informer Show is a weekly podcast covering the video game industry. Join us every Friday for chats about your favorite titles – past and present – alongside Game Informer staff and special guests from around the industry.
