IGN UK Podcast

Look, we know you're expecting Death Stranding chat this week... and that's exactly what you're getting. Dale and Joe's impressions of Kojima's latest is succulently sandwiched between two beautifully baked slices of wholemeal in the shape of Cardy and Alex's trials with Modern Warfare's Spec Ops, and excitement for Overwatch 2. Go On Name Them makes a glorious return and the Cardy's Football Mana...

Look, we know you're expecting Death Stranding chat this week... but we're not allowed to talk about that. Come back! We promise we have so much more! We've got hot, steaming opinions about Modern Warfare, Luigi's Mansion 3, and Doctor Sleep for you - it's a pop culture bonanza, baby. This week's Endless Search also includes a major last-minute twist for the second week in a row. Is this the best...

Could it be real? Could there really be another good Terminator film in the world? It seems so, and that's one of the plethora of topics on the table in this week's IGN UK Podcast. Matt's seen it, and he's got a few thoughts on why - for better and for worse - it's the best one since T2. Not only that, but we've got an interview with stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton on the show, too....

In this week's thrilling installment of the IGN UK Podcast, Dale has a Halloween-themed Cadbury's Creme Egg that he's desperate to eat. But will he get to the gooey centre before Cardy takes it for himself? You'll have to listen to the whole 'cast to find out.  Thankfully that shouldn't be too much of an arduous task, as there's plenty to discuss. Matt's been to EGX to play Marvel's Avengers, incl...

It's podcast day, and Joe, Jesse, and Matt have come together to discuss what may be their game of the year: Disco Elysium. Never heard of it? Then you're in the right place for hugely enthusiastic, incredible weird chat about this massive, strange detective RPG.  If RPGs where you get into arguments with your neck tie aren't your thing, then there's also plenty of discussion about the two big co-...

It's a podcast of two halves this week. In the first half, we talk through a whole heap of new film trailers we've been watching recently, cover Apex Legends' new map (and all it's lovely colours, for some reason), and play another lovely game of Mr. Lister's Quiz Shootout. But the second half is deeper, darker, spoilier. We've just seen Joker, and Joe, Cardy and Matt convened to talk it through i...

Cardy, Dale, and Matt sit down at the UK Podcast table this week to discuss a plethora of delights, starting with the exploits of Mr. Joaquin Phoenix in this year's other other big comic book movie, Joker. Matt and Cardy have also been to see Rian Johnson's latest, Knives Out, and discuss why it's a great pallet cleanser following The Last Jedi. There's also some quickfire takes on Call of Duty: M...

Cardy & Joe have both been reviewing games this week so gather round the podcast table for layers of critical thought. Link's Awakening has been remade for the Switch so Joe tells you why that's a banger and Cardy has done FIFA again so explains what's up with the footballs this year. Borderlands 3 also gets its fair share of debate time. Meanwhile, Dale is convinced that new Netflix show "The I-L...

Tokyo Game Show is happening right now, bringing big revelations about some of Japan's biggest games. So you know what that means: long chats about what the hell is going on in Death Stranding. Joe, Cardy and Matt discuss Kojima's latest revelations, and it looks like we finally know what you do in the game. There's more than Thermos babies to discuss, though. We've been playing a duo of delights...

Matt has seen IT Chapter Two and not only does tell us his feelings, but he also shares his interview he did with the film's director, Andy Muschietti. But that's not the only scaries we have this week. In what feels like an early halloween, we have three spooky games to bang on about. Dale has played Blair Witch and has a lot of thoughts about the game and the history of the series. Jesse talks a...

If you aren't from the UK, you might not be aware that we aren't getting Disney+ along with the rest of the world. We have some stuff to say about that.  Once we've gone through the stages of grief, we have time to talk about The Mandalorian, new Disney and Star Wars series, and Control. We even squeezed in a chat with Brian Froud, the genius behind the many, many designs of creatures in The Dark...

Look, Gamescom was very busy, so we recorded the special when we got back. Inauthentic? Yes. Tired? Also yes. But we are at least comprehensive. That's why you get big hunky chunks of Death Stranding, Disintegration, Marvel's Avengers, The Endless Cylinder and more. Also, Joe turned Farming Simulator into an actual game! (Sorry, Germany). And remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast,...

16 Podcasters, 300 audience members, 1 live band and 500 episodes. This is the IGN UK Podcast's 500th episode live spectacular!  We roped in a whole host of voices from past and present to join us live at London's famous 100 Club. With four panels of four, we talked about our favourite memories from the last ten years of podcasts. We also had not one, but three of our favourite Endless Search game...

We really tried not to talk about crisps this week. I mean, obviously we did, but we talked about milk production too! Oh also there was chat about No Man's Sky, FIFA 20, Half Dead 2 and The Club, played a tweaked game of PG Tips, and we revealed a tiny little bit more about Podcast 500. Remember, it's on Friday 16th August, and you can get your ticket here! And remember, if you want to get in tou...

Cardy and Matt have been lucky enough to see Quentin Tarantino's 9th/10th (depending on who you ask) film, Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood. They possess different views on the film, sparking MUCH chat. Joe's been spending more time playing hard Japanese games so here is to tell us all about Fire Emblem: Three Houses and the upcoming Monster Hunter: World expansion, Iceborne. We also break down Am...

Tonnes of Marvel announcements took place in San Diego Comic-Con's Hall H last weekend so Joe, Matt & Cardy are here to take a closer look at all the new movies and TV shows announced and discussed what they're most excited for. We've also been playing some games, half of which are Marvel related. They're doing alright for themselves, aren't they? PG Tips is this week's Endless Search offering and...

This week we saw a trailer that truly haunted us to the core, and it wasn't IT Chapter Two's... After we recover, we also talk about all the other trailers from SDCC, Minecraft Earth and the new controversial update coming to Overwatch. We also go deep into another hot debate after all your crisp correspondences, and The Endless Starch makes its triumphant return as well. Enjoy! Learn more about y...

It's a bumper episode this week. Joe & Cardy have been travelling around Europe playing some hot upcoming games and want to tell you all about them. Not only have they spent extended time with Control, but they also played The Dark Pictures: Man of Medan on a boat in Hamburg where they got accosted by naughty zombies. Alex likes the sound of the Nintendo Switch Lite and new Modern Warfare mode "Gu...

Dale, Matt, and Jesse have gone back to the 80s for a no-spoilers chat about Stranger Things season 3. But Hawkins isn't the only place with weird goings on; Rainbow Six Siege has gone all wild west, and Apex Legends has been invaded by monsters, and so there's words about those, too. Plus there's the first (and possibly last) episode of Jesse's VR Corner, and a thrilling game of PG Tips. All of t...

Matt has seen Spider-Man: Far From Home which is nice for him. He also went to see Toy Story 4 with Cardy and they both cried together as their childhood's flooded back to them in a touching, impactful 90 minutes. Meanwhile, Joe has watching Japanese men expose their rectums. The Endless Starch is also back for another mind-bending dose of trivia and mental gymnastics. And remember, if you want to...

This week Joe, Dale, and Matt are here to talk all about their latest slo-mo obsession: My Friend Pedro. Also joining in for a little bit of a chat is My Friend Pedro's developer, Victor Agren, better known as DeadToast. He knows a thing or two about good grenade launcher sounds, so you'll want to listen in for that. As well as good video game chat we've got bad film chat, too, as the guys have se...

Joe, Cardy and Matt take a breather from E3 to bring you the low-down of the best games they've seen in LA. Cyberpunk! Zelda! Watch Dogs Legion!

Games! Hundreds of them! Yes, it's time for E3 once again, when we get our first glimpse of all the cool games we'll be playing later this year and beyond. Ahead of the show, Alex, Jesse and Matt talk about what they're most looking forward to, and what they'd most like to see if their wishes came true. Google Stadia also gets a look-in, plus the Endless Search continues with a reworked classic. L...

It was all going so well this week. We had Godzilla: King of the Monsters opinions, not to mention a chat with the director himself. We brought Death Stranding speculation and Call of Duty information. We even talked you through Blood & Truth. And then Joe started talking about the Red M&M's sex life again. Sorry. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ig...

Joe, Dale and Cardy had just watched the new Lonely Island visual poem just before this podcast and, honestly, you should probably do the same. Once we stopped being excited about that, we had a talk through Confirmed Very Good Games, Observation and Heaven's Vault, and then our own Good Game, Go On Name Them. Oh, and in our last big spoilery discussion of Game of Thrones, we look back at our pred...
