Cardy, Matt, and Jesse are here to deliver a week full of misery. That isn't always a bad thing, though. Case in point: Silent Hill 2, a fantastic remake of a horror classic. It can, however, definitely be a bad thing. Just like the incredibly boring Joker: Folie à Deux. We have reviews of both this week, as well as thoughts of Hell Is Us, the Until Dawn remaster (remake?), and The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

Warhammer über-nerd Matt has finally played a decent chunk of the upcoming third-person shooter Space Marine 2, and from what he's played it's far exceeded his expectations. Jesse has been sinking his time into another Warhammer 40K game, Speed Freeks , and, well... you'll just have to listen to this week's IGN UK Podcast to find out what he thinks. He also does way too much self-promotion, but thankfully keeps his potty mouth relatively clean for once.

Cardy, Joe, and Matt have convened to build the best RPGs ever as 30 different games are picked and dreams and horrors come to life. Taking turns they pick everything from combat and music to location and party members as things get increasingly more tense and borderline angry. It’s all good fun, though.
Before that, there are reminders as to why you should be watching Atlanta and The Boys if you aren’t already, as well as why you should be excited about Cult of the Lamb. Joe also audibly salivates at the thought of a beefy pie.

It's gaming Christmas, aka The Game Awards, in which dozens of adverts for upcoming video games arrive at Geoff Keighley's awards ceremony. Cardy stayed up all night to watch them because he's mad, and so he joins Alex and Matt on this week's IGN UK podcast to talk about all the highlights. (Alex and Matt watched the trailers this morning like normal people).
In addition to discussing the likes of Star Wars: Eclipse, Alan Wake 2, Sommerville, Arc Raiders, Space Marine 2, and Suicide Squad, this week's podcast also covers the big topic of the week: Halo Infinite's campaign. Has 343 Industries finally made a campaign that lives up to the best of Bungie, or does the open world design just not suit Master Chief? We've got plenty of thoughts.
Plus, to make this episode extra special, we've got an interview with one of the finest directors in history: Mr. Steven Spielberg.
As ever, there's another edition of the Endless Search (this time it's Halo flavoured) and we respond to your feedback about replaying games and sucking on chocolate.

Microsoft surprised us all with the launch of Halo Infinite's multiplayer this week, and Cardy, Jesse, and Matt have been getting into the Spartan groove by spanking as many people as possible. But not content with just giving opinions on the likes of Slayer and Capture the Flag, we've also got thoughts on the Halo Infinite campaign, which Matt has played the first chunk of.
Beyond Halo chat, we've also got a few bones to pick with the Grand Theft Auto Trilogy, which hasn't exactly revitalised our nostalgia for the PS2-era of GTA. Balancing that out, we've got chat about Ghostbusters: Afterlife and the new Radiohead Kid A Mnesia Exhibition, a strange musical museum on PC and PS5.

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 Endless Search favourite, and your excellent emails. Remember, if you want to get in touch with the podcast, please do: [email protected].

I think it goes without saying, but if you haven't finished the game yet, DON'T listen to this till you do. Don't worry, it's not going anywhere.

Joe, Alex and Matt convene to discuss the end of this generation with Ghost of Tsushima, the beginning of the next with Unreal Engine 5, and eventually start discussing the age old argument of whether a story about drowning can, indeed, be funny.
Between all that we've got chats about Ryan Murphy's Hollywood, What the Golf, and an Endless Search that goes notably poorly, even for that recurring feature.

E3 is cancelled, which is shit. Cardy, Matt and Jesse discuss what the backup plan is for all those game companies out there before going in deep on the new Call of Duty: Warzone modes and our (brief) experiences with both Battle Royale and Plunder so far. There isn't really a lot of other fun stuff happening this week so instead dedicate a large portion of this week to listener feedback and return to some nostalgic PS2 chat and dreams video game concepts.
Jesse has finally stepped up to host a game of The Endless Search. Good lad.
I didn't really know what music to put at the end this week, so enjoy some of The Beatles.

Are you ready? Are you ready for love? Matt is. He's also very excited to play Final Fantasy 7 Remake after having a bash on 3 hours of it. Joe has the unenviable task of trying to describe exciting new shooter Quantum League, and Cardy has been battering people with carrots and fish in Bloodroots. We also forward to the future of PlayStation by casting our Last of Us TV show leads, as well as reminiscing about our favourite PS2 games following the console's 20th birthday.

Shockingly Alex has returned again, despite promising a 3 month hiatus recently. He's joined by Dale, who talks Resident Evil 3 and has Siege tales from San Francisco. Mr Matt Purslow rounds off the threesome and he is BIG into everything Baldur's Gate 3 and Hunt: Showdown.
Also, not only is The Endless Search back, but so is The Perpetual Pursuit. The extra twist is Alex is hosting his first ever Endless Search game on the podcast! Guess he had to pull his finger out at some point...

Joe's spent a large portion of the past week on planes, so tells us about what he watched, played and listened to on them. Cardy's played a bit Persona 5 Royal and is still insisting to himself that he won't sink another 100+ hours into it when it releases. Matt's has been finishing off his time with the Half-Life reimagining "Black Mesa" and has been having a rather splendid time by the sound of it. There's also time to discuss how relaxing Animal Crossing is looking after the hefty Nintendo Direct this week.
The feedback section takes a dark turn, but the frivolity of The Perpetual Pursuit does well to balance it out.

This week on the IGN UK Podcast, Dale and Matt get very hype about all their nostalgic memories being made anew thanks to a brand new Final Fantasy 7 Remake trailer. We talk how to pronounce Jenova, Red XIII's voice, the gloom of the Shinra building... everything you could think of, aside from Cloud's cross dressing, which we somehow overlooked. That's why he's in the thumbnail for this episode: he may not get a mention, but he's certainly not forgotten.
Jesse's on the show too, and has been playing the Disintegration beta with some of the other IGN guys. There's mixed thoughts a-plenty on that one, but with a sprinkling of hope. There's also some discussion about Warcraft 3 Reforged, the remaster of the classic 2002 Blizzard RTS that's both a fantastic visit to the past and a failure to meet a lofty promise.
As ever, there's also a cool listener-submitted game and our responses to your feedback.

Unfortunately it also means we can't meet to talk about it this time, so we've pre-recorded a very silly special where the three of us play a full Fantasy Draft league in the full-fat version of the game. Included is the entire thing, for better or worse. Enjoy!

There's new Bond and Black Widow trailers to dissect, plus Matt has seen 1917 and tells us why its an absolute banger. Joe got the chance to speak with Joker director Todd Phillips which inspired us to come up with our own pitches for DC movies, the directors we'd like to see make them and why Shaun Williamson aka Barry from Eastenders should play every role in the DC universe.

On top of that, we've got a Star Wars-themed Endless Search, a bit of Star Wars-themed feedback and, er, someone who doesn't like the idea of our Football Manager spin-off. Fair enough, really.

Some of us here at the IGN UK office spend more time than is healthy - both professionally and medically - talking about Football Manager. That's why we've finally given into our desires and created a spin-off podcast all about the newest game in the series, Football Manager 2020.

Could it be real? Could there really be another good Terminator film in the world? It seems so, and that's one of the plethora of topics on the table in this week's IGN UK Podcast. Matt's seen it, and he's got a few thoughts on why - for better and for worse - it's the best one since T2. Not only that, but we've got an interview with stars Arnold Schwarzenegger and Linda Hamilton on the show, too.
Before all that, though, there's more to discuss. Star Wars! The Outer Worlds! Watchmen! Big hefty topics that require big old hefty chats. And that's exactly what Matt, Cardy, and Joe have for you in episode 510.

In this week's thrilling installment of the IGN UK Podcast, Dale has a Halloween-themed Cadbury's Creme Egg that he's desperate to eat. But will he get to the gooey centre before Cardy takes it for himself? You'll have to listen to the whole 'cast to find out.
Thankfully that shouldn't be too much of an arduous task, as there's plenty to discuss. Matt's been to EGX to play Marvel's Avengers, including hands-on time with a new character; the super-stretchy Ms. Marvel. Dale's also been previewing games this week, with thoughts on Need for Speed Heat and WWE 2K20. Cardy's also got a few extra words to say about Disco Elysium, the detective game that's captured the hearts and minds of almost all the UK team, and Matt's got some thoughts about Zombieland: Double Tap.
PG Tips returns for this week's Endless Search, and of course there's more feedback (as well as the questions discovered in Dale's Twitter mentions).

If RPGs where you get into arguments with your neck tie aren't your thing, then there's also plenty of discussion about the two big co-op shooters of the moment - Destiny 2: Shadowkeep and Ghost Recon: Breakpoint - and Joe's been putting Nintendo's new fitness gizmo Ring Fit to the test.
And as if that wasn't enough, there's also a hilariously difficult new game for the Endless Search, and some delightful feedback.

But the second half is deeper, darker, spoilier. We've just seen Joker, and Joe, Cardy and Matt convened to talk it through in it's entirety. Listen at your own risk.

There's more than Thermos babies to discuss, though. We've been playing a duo of delights in Gears 5 and Catherine: Full Body, plus the slightly less delightful Daemon X Machina.

Matt has seen IT Chapter Two and not only does tell us his feelings, but he also shares his interview he did with the film's director, Andy Muschietti.

Dale has played Blair Witch and has a lot of thoughts about the game and the history of the series. Jesse talks about finishing Man of Medan three times and Dale has also tried out the latest PS4 FMV game, Erica.

Once we've gone through the stages of grief, we have time to talk about The Mandalorian, new Disney and Star Wars series, and Control.
We even squeezed in a chat with Brian Froud, the genius behind the many, many designs of creatures in The Dark Crystal, and its new Netflix Prequel, Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Thanks Brian!

Look, Gamescom was very busy, so we recorded the special when we got back. Inauthentic? Yes. Tired? Also yes. But we are at least comprehensive.
That's why you get big hunky chunks of Death Stranding, Disintegration, Marvel's Avengers, The Endless Cylinder and more. Also, Joe turned Farming Simulator into an actual game! (Sorry, Germany).

We roped in a whole host of voices from past and present to join us live at London's famous 100 Club.

We also had not one, but three of our favourite Endless Search games with the amazing Code:Marla doing a live performance of jingle (yes, they did it 3 times!).
A great time was had by all, but mostly by us! Thank you so much to all the amazing people who traveled so far and helped make this event so special. Here's to another 500 episodes!

As well as good video game chat we've got bad film chat, too, as the guys have seen a few dreadful movies recently that need dissecting. And to finish it all off, there's a tense game of the Endless Search that'll (probably not) go down in history.

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.

Who wants a podcast where the hosts predict the big winners of the 2018 Oscars, interview the amazingly funny and talented Joel Edgerton AND talk for far too long about taking over managerial duties at Bayer Leverkusen? Well, ladies n gents - we might just have your sweaty little butts covered!
Mr. Edgerton stops by the podcast to talk about his new sexy spy thriller Red Sparrow and is very patient whilst reading out some strange Star Wars fan-ficton Gav came up with. Red Sparrow is in cinemas right now and we have it on good authority that you get to see Edgerton's nips more than once in it, so...
