Gamespot's prolific Lucy James joins Joe and Cardy to discuss their experiences with Marvel's Avengers this week. Also, Nintendo thought it would be a laugh to announce half a dozen Mario games out of nowhere so they delve into everything from revisiting classics to being able to drive mini Mario Karts around your house. 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 course, a big helping of Willem Dafoe.

This week's IGN UK Podcast is fueled by BDE. Yes, Big Dafoe Energy. Master actor Willem Dafoe is, of course, part of the cast of 12 Minutes, just one of the games we discuss in our rundown of Gamescom's Opening Night Live. We've also got chat from Cardy, Joe, and Matt on DC FanDome for all your Batman, Suicide Squad, and Gotham Knights needs.  Plus there's some feedback. No Endless Search this week, though. But, be honest, do you need another one after last's weeks incredible scenes?  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Matt's already seen Tenet because he's a very lucky boy, so will tell you all about it without spoiling a single thing. The time-bending theme continues as Cardy discusses his review of new puzzle game Peaky Blinders: Mastermind. Alex joins in the fun as Call of Duty Black Ops: Cold War theories are proposed as well as chat about the intriguing new Black Myth: Wukong. He also provides maybe the toughest Endless Search quiz to date. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

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 Search is played and of course, some of your feedback. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com.

Cardy, Matt and Jesse discuss some of the new things we saw in the latest PlayStation State of Play, the barmy fun that is Fall Guys, plus what they did and didn't like about the Avengers Beta.

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 podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

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.

This week, we're joined by Gamespot honcho and confirmed anime boy Tamoor Hussain to talk through our feelings on Ghost of Tsushima, Paper Mario, Snowpiercer, Song of Bloom, Dark, Diablo, and one very rude line that Redman said once.

A few weeks ago Joe, Dale and Cardy gave their thoughts on The Last of Us Part 2.

If you've yet to finish The Last of Us 2 don't worry, because there's a brand new Endless Search game right at the beginning of the podcast. That'll keep you busy for 10 minutes. Let's go!

Joe's been flying around as Iron Man and Jesse has been jumping around a neo-Notre Dame all from the comfort of their own homes. Aren't video games mad when you think about it?!
