Rolled credits in Pokémon Z-A after 30 hours. This might be one of my favorite Pokémon games ever. Really fun and looking forward to slowly “catching them all” and maybe actually 100%-ing this one.

Game Informer getting this kind of placement is just amazing.
The magazine is such a high quality (both physically and the content too!) and it deserves to find as many readers as possible.

In my time at Game Informer, it has never been available at newsstands, but it's always been something I've dreamt of for the magazine. You can still subscribe if you're in the US, but starting soon, you'll also be able to walk into various retailers and buy the issue you want. We're so excited!
Coming this December: Game Informer will be available in major retailers – including @barnesandnoble.com, GameStop, WH Smith, Books-A-Million and more – in the US and internationally. Learn more: gameinformer.com/letter-from-...
