IGN UK Podcast 430: God of War After Dark

This week Krupa's been playing that new God of War, but to be honest that bit mainly ends up being about the canonical status of what happened in Hollyoaks Afer Dark. If you don't know what that is, it's like naughty Hollyoaks. If you don't know what Hollyoaks is – well, there's no helping you. We've seen a little bit of Infinity War, but can't talk about it, so enjoy that. And enjoy the really, really hard Keyword Countdown. Learn more about your ad choices.
