IGN UK Podcast

Anyone who's anyone in games media were at The Games Awards in LA this week. Except us. But fear not, we got in early this morning and watched all the trailers because we're professionals, and so we could go through them all on this week's podcast. We've also been playing a brilliant game called  Don't Get Got, and there's a brief Coverwatch update, which let's face it – that's why you're here. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week we settle the debate which has plagued pop culture nerds for years... Which film series is better: Star Wars or Rocky?  By the end of this podcast not only will you have a definitive answer to that question but you will have also heard from Creed 2 director Steven Caple Jr. and the fantastic Tessa Thompson.  Krupa, Dale and Gav also give you their predictions on where they think the series will go in Creed 3.  There's still time to buy tickets to our Prestige screening and live podcast so get yours now.  Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com Learn more about your ad choices.

After a brief chat about drying racks and disgusting toothpaste anecdote, Gav, Joe and Krupa get onto the big business of the week. We discuss the Lion King trailer, we give another shout-out to The Sinner Season 2 and we evangelise Mr. Blobby. And then, as an extra-special treat, we talk about our latest hands-on with official Most Exciting 2019 Game Observation, and have a nice little chat with its director. If you're coming along to our Prestige screening and live podcast alone, we have a new Facebook event page so that you can meet up with like-minded legends.

This week, Gav, Rory and Joe discuss the finer points of Sony's E3 no-show, and then somehow start discussing the madness that is Rory's (theoretical) house. That candy machine sure is loud. That's not to mention our chats about The Sinner season 2, Pokemon Let's Go's brilliant walking animations, and Smaug's anatomy. But is any of that as exciting as the fact that we are, finally, going to be showing The Prestige in a real cinema, and then recording a live special? No it bloody isn't - please come along!

Join Joe, Alex and Rory as they discuss Red Dead Online, Fallout 76, Overwatch's new character, Shrek, Snapchat filter failures and a chair may or may not be an arse. That got a bit out of hand.

This week we've got some lovely spoiler-free chat about our favourite moments (so far) in Red Dead Redemption 2 and Gav's been getting all chummy with Sean Bean for Hitman 2.  We've also got the maddest link for Keyword Countdown ever and a BRAND NEW (sort of) feature - it's even got a jingle!  Remember if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com   Learn more about your ad choices.

We're big fans of Halloween at the IGN UK podcast so we thought we'd celebrate this week by bringing you a big ol' episode dedicated to it.  We've done a nice rundown of all the spookiest goings on in the cinema, on Netflix and on regular people telly. There's also a full-on spoiler discussion about the new Halloween film and as if that wasn't enough we're joined by THREE special guests.  You'll find lovely chats with Julius Avery and J.J. Abrams, the men responsible for bringing awesome new WW2 horror film Overlord to our cinemas, and we're also joined by the one and only Jamie Lee Curtis! We don't know how we've done it...I mean, we do - months of careful planning and loads of emails - but still, what a fantastic time YOU'RE about to have.  Remember if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Due to tangible demand, the IGN UK podcast is BACK! This week we've mostly been playing Dark Souls on Switch, getting the willies stuffed up us by The Haunting of Hill House and watching Nicolas Cage go berzerkoid.  We also watched Bad Times at the El Royale which we didn't have any particularly strong feelings about either way but sometimes we come up with the title of the podcast before we record...so....yeah.  Remember if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: ign_ukfeedback@ign.com Learn more about your ad choices.

It's a packed week on the podcast, as Gav, Dale and Joe convene to discuss why Fallout 76 is best when it's not being a Fallout game, why game maps are getting too big, what Observation is, and why Joe might be mentioned on Waluigi's Wikipedia page. Plus, obviously, there's Keyword Countdown - we know it's all you're here for. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
