Well, it's finally here, ladies and gentlemen. After weeks of hyping up this installment of Drop In/Drop Out, it's finally time for you to see how we determined our Game of the Year for 2018 here at DualShockers.

As you might expect, this week's entire episode is dedicated to arguing over the merits of this year's Game of the Year. What game did we think was the most impressive? Which title will have the biggest impact on the industry moving forward? And why didn't anyone make a case for The Quiet Man for Game of the Year? All of these questions and more are answered.

Here is a tease of some of the games you can expect to hear arguments for GOTY on the podcast:

  • The Messenger
  • God of War
  • Valkyria Chronicles 4
  • Marvel's Spider-Man
  • Red Dead Redemption 2

Also, our full list of Game of the Year 2018 awards is already live on the website. You can click here to read our full list of honors for the year that was 2018. Be sure to keep an eye out for our individual staff top 10 lists which will be staggering out over the next two weeks.

You can find Drop In/Drop Out on iTunes, Google Play, and Spotify, in addition to listening natively on Podbean. If you have time to leave a review on any of those platforms, it’d really help us out greatly.

Thanks to HTML for allowing us to use their song “Liquor Store” as the opening theme of the show. You can find their music over on Bandcamp.

Also, be sure to follow Drop In/Drop Out, DualShockers, and this week’s guests to keep up with us all moving forward.

Lastly, if this is your first episode listening to the podcast, then thanks so much. We're still in the early stages of workshopping this show we'd love to hear your feedback in the comments below.
