Canada’s favorite son Geoff Keighley graces the stage to host the annual Game Awards ceremony next week. This year, gaming’s biggest award show is back to in-person (try to spot Brian Shea in the crowd) and promising a huge night. To get hyped for this year’s show, we assembled an expert panel of futurists, including Dan, Kim, and Marcus, to go over our predictions and tell you exactly who’s going to win the big awards. Not only that, we end the segment with our wild guesses on what spicy reveals the night will contain. Will there be a new Splinter Cell announced? Could we see updates from huge Microsoft titles such as Avowed or Fable? Is this the night In The Valley Of Gods makes its triumphant return? Only time will tell, but we hope you all can enjoy this fun podcast discussion in the meantime.<\/p>\n Learn more about The Game Awards 2021 here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n Join us on another hilarious round of listener questions where the crew sits down to discuss their favorite seasonal video game memories and what the best\u00a0jaw-dropping moments are!<\/p>\n Read their questions below, or submit your own via the Official Game Informer <\/em>Community Discord<\/a>\u00a0or by emailing us at Podcast@GameInformer.com<\/a>:<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n For more Game Informer podcasts, be sure to check out <\/i>https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/podcast\/2021\/10\/12\/introducing-video-gameo\u2026<\/a>; delay=”150″ href=”https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/podcast\/2021\/10\/12\/introducing-video-gameo\u2026<\/a>; rel=”noopener noreferrer” tabindex=”-1″ target=”_blank”>Video Gameography<\/a><\/em>, our video game history podcast, and <\/i>https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/podcast\/2021\/10\/06\/introducing-all-things-\u2026<\/a>; delay=”150″ href=”https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/podcast\/2021\/10\/06\/introducing-all-things-\u2026<\/a>; rel=”noopener noreferrer” tabindex=”-1″ target=”_blank”>All Things Nintendo<\/a><\/i> with host Brian Shea which deep dives into Nintendo’s library of games every week.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
