IGN UK Podcast

A year after buying the tickets, the team finally got to see Harry Potter & the Cursed Child - so we spent most of this podcast talking about robot butlers from our childhood. Thankfully, we also had incredibly special guest, Andy Serkis, who joined Gav and Joe to talk about his studio's new game, The Prestige and play a round of Keyword Countdown.

Krupa, Gav and Alex walked the streets of 1940s Los Angeles when they played LA Noire in VR and on Switch, and it's no surprise Mad Men gets a mention.

The new Star Wars trailer has dropped - as have Gav, Alysia and Dale's jaws. Beyond discussing fan theories and dissecting every frame, we've also seen Blade Runner 2049 and played Friday 13th.

We've played literally every game in the world this week - Battlefront 2, Destiny 2, Cuphead. That's it. Also, we watched weirdo Jaden Smith anime Neo Yokio - it's surprisingly not the worst.

7 podcasters (Krupa was sicking up), 150 live listeners, 1 sweaty stage in London, 400 episodes. This is the IGN UK Podcast live show, and we might as well close this website right now because it was so powerfully excellent. In the two halves of the show, we created the greatest features you could ever hope to hear. In the first part, we polled every member of the podcast and created "The Top 7 List of Everything Ever". In the second half, we played our first ever game of Team Keyword Countdown, and things went OFF. Thank you to everyone who came along, and to everyone who listens - here's to another 400 episodes of absolute trash. Oh, and extra-special thanks to Alex Newman, creator of our brand-new theme tune.

In an INCREDIBLE COINCIDENCE, the Witcher's getting a Netflix show just as Game of Thrones comes to a close.

We also discuss why The Handmaid's Tale is so good Joe can't bring himself to watch it anymore, why Farpoint is so VR-y that Dale can't play it anymore, and why Iron Maiden's beer is so beef-like that Gav can't drink it anymore.

Somehow, we did things that weren't playing Zelda this week. I mean, not many things, but definitely some things. Like watching excellent new horror film, Get Out, or thinking about how the Switch is already worming its tablet-y little way into our daily lives. But yeah, mainly we just play Zelda now, and the breathless enthusiasm and inability to talk in a straightforward way about it you're about to hear will attest to that.

There's so much good in this week's podcast that we had to call the server nerds at IGN and tell them to chuck on more logs.
