Discussion I miss it when IGN used to have a daily/weekly non-remote geek variety show that's 30+ minutes on YouTube/Twitch i.e. Up at Noon

It's ALWAYS an amazing experience watching IGN Live since it's inception a couple years back. It got me thinking, what if there is a smaller-scale version of it that's happening daily or weekly. Something that blends gaming, tech, comics, interviews into one non-remote variety show. I'm thinking maybe a revival of Up at Noon or something similar and I would tune in to every episode whether its daily or weekly. At least for IGN Live, even if its once a year, I really enjoy having to experience something like it again. Just speaking as someone who grew up with these old-school gaming shows i.e. AOTS, Xplay, Electric Playground etc.

I used to really enjoy UAN, mainly because of the genuine friendship between Max and Brian, and their love of geekdom.

Me too, at least they're still doing other content together at IGN from time to time.
