This year, as every year, we at the IGN UK Podcast have convened as another 12 months come to an end, and come up with a load of thinly veiled excuses to talk about games we don't think will get enough attention in the proper Game of the Year awards . So sit back and join Joe, Jesse, and Alex for the likes of the "Early Access Games Are Good Actually, In Shocking Twist", "The Best Reminder to Take Care of Myself and My Family", and the "Tried to Think of a Clever Award But Actually These Were Ju...
Here's a bonus midweek episode of the IGN UK Podcast as there's frankly just too much stuff to ignore. Cardy, Matt and Joe have all been playing Cyberpunk 2077 and give their impressions so far, alongside discussing the absolute shambles of a release that it's been. Firstly though, there's the small matter of roughly 6,000 new games and Disney TV shows and movies to talk through as we once again ask the question "Is there too much Star Wars?". Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podca...

We also have a hotly contested edition of The Endless Search and respond to some of your lovely feedback. Remember, if you want to ...
Joe, Dale and Jesse are back and have a variety of opinions on The Mandalorian so far, leading us down a rabbit hole of obscure Star Wars lore like Darth Vader's boots being too small. We're also joined by a special guest, IGN's UK Social Commercial Editor, Robert to regale us in all of his PS5 launch day adventures, and the team share some more next-gen thoughts as well. We have another (not as exciting) edition of The Endless Search and respond to some of your lovely feedback. Remember, if you...

It's been a fine week for free updates to already great games. Ghost of Tsushima has added Legends so Cardy and Matt can be samurai together before joining Joe over in Verdansk to party with zombies, Billy the Puppet, Leatherface and all the other horror lads in Warzone.

Joe's reviewed I Am Dead, Annapurna's new lightly puzzle-filled island game about slicing up objects. It sounds very odd, but very nice. It's that time of the year again where Cardy is knee-deep in FIFA so expect some football related chat. Also, Matt's been getting stuck into some new RPGs with Baldur's Gate 3 and Genshin Impact, both of which he's enjoying quite a bit. There's also plenty of time to talk all things sausages, bread and ham. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast...
The manic marsupial, AKA Crash Bandicoot is back, and because he forgot to press record the first time; so is Dale with a second go at explaining all his thoughts on the game. Jesse is also on and has been playing a ton of Star Wars: Squadrons. In other news, he also has a new voice changer toy that distracts us for a good 30 seconds too. Cardy rounds off the trio by telling us all about his early thoughts of the Mafia Remaster and we also have an extremely tight round of The Endless Search that...
Cardy, Matt and Joe tell you all why you should be playing Hades and Paradise Killer this week because they are both fantastic.

On a bountiful menu today is plenty of PS5 treats to sink our teeth into. The reveal of Final Fantasy 16 served as an attention grabbing starter, before a flurry of exciting middle courses in the form of Resident Evil, Deathloop and others. All rounded off by the show-stopping God of War shaped dessert followed by a mad rush to actually pre-order a console. Nintendo also announced a couple of new Monster Hunter games for the Switch that has had Joe hungry for more, but for now he and Matt have h...

Gamespot's prolific Lucy James joins Joe and Cardy to discuss their experiences with Marvel's Avengers this week.

There's also some delightful indie game chat on offer including Spiritfarer and A Short Hike. There's a return for The Endless Search along with some delightful feedback and of ...

Cardy, Joe and Matt are here to dissect the great corporation war of 2020 between Epic and Apple. But don't worry they get back onto the usual nonsense like which Cyberpunk 2077 life path is most like Elijah Wood's in Green Street, Agent 47 whispering naughty words into his victims ears and finally, the best velvet in games is revealed. Plus, Matt has been playing Outriders while Joe and Cardy are getting round to Alan Wake in preparation for Control's upcoming DLC. A PG Tips edition of Endless ...

It is time for our most ill-advised one-off yet, our long-promised Drowning Special. We received literally dozens of emails about the funnier side of not being able to breathe underwater, and we're reading our favourites. What a time to be alive. But before that, we fulfil our contractual remit to talk about entertainment by discussing the incredible Flight Simulator, and the mind-bamboozling Superliminal. It's got a bit of everything, this show. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the po...
Cardy, Joe and Matt are talking all about the shiny new Xbox games including Halo Infinite, the return of Fable, and a lot of Gunk.

It's ludicrously hot (read: a bit hot) in the UK right now, and it isn't helping our general state of "melted" that all these exciting games are being shown off at the moment. This week, Jesse, Matt and Joe discuss the finer points of Cyberpunk 2077 after Night City Wire and a swather of previews. We also touch base on Marvel's Avengers, which impressed us in its possibilities. Alongside that, we've got thoughts on The Sinner, Snowpiercer and the Harley Quinn TV show, not to mention a new Endles...
