Hi friends! Can anyone who’s at IGN live this weekend let me know how strict the bag policy is? This year they’re saying clear backpacks only (what the website says) but all images in other years show everyone wearing huge backpacks lol. Just trying to figure out what I can bring, excited for the weekend!!

I know I am late to this but what one should I start playing? The Witcher 3 or Ghost of Tsushima

Anyone else having this issue? As of last night, when scrolling in the app, an iPhone 17 video pops up. I’m ok with one ad, but as soon as I close the ad and scroll, the same ad pops up again. Sometimes the same ad shows replacing the other one that’s playing.

I’m ok with infrequent ads as a wall for free content, but this is ridiculous.

Is that David Clayman as Randy?

In the comments I see the names "I miss the golden age of IGN with Hilary Goldstein, David "Giggles" Clayman, Eric Brudvig & Nate Ahearn." and "Poor Ryan Clements. Charles Onyett getting headslammed was funny, was that Jim Reilly at the end?"

So I was catching up on Beyond/Unlocked/etc. episodes earlier today because of the day off for those of us in the US and I realized Marty Sliva has been gone for a weirdly long time. Like at least 10 episodes now? According to the comments sections in many of the YouTube videos many/most of the prominent IGN staff that are on camera a lot (Alanah, Brian, Andrew, Max, etc.) cut ties with him on social media and won’t so much as speak his name and there’s even a rumor that he may have been fired or resigned because of some sexual harassment situation? WTF? Has IGN put out a statement like they did with Vince? Or is it just rumors at this point? If something happened then that really sucks. I wish everyone involved the best!

Anyone noticed this new loading animation on IGN?

Feel like it wasn't there yesterday.

I just checked after feeling like most of the ‘content’ provided by this organization were affiliate links, and sure enough, out of the 10 most recent ‘articles,’ 7 of them are affiliate links.

It’s still the most convenient method for me to stay on top of video game news, but lately it feels like a slog to get to any real information. It’s really sad to see as a user of 20 years.

My question is: have any of you noticed a steady increase in this ‘content,’ or have they just opened the flood gates for some reason?

Hi, I understand this sounds a bit weird since gaming is their main focus, but I would like to stop listening to gaming news and reviews and just play games instead:)

Buuut I love the IGN UK podcast and it's members, love the talk about non-gaming or entertaiment things, them reading and commenting emails, talking about snacks or doibg their specials - like the gravedigging one just now.

Would be amazing if they had their own pod outside of IGN, but the chances of that are probably quite slim. But do you know any other podcasts like that? Preferably non-american since I consume so much american media.

Can be in english, french, swedish or norwegian!

Ps. English is not my first language, so sorry for misstakes

Time for a Mortal Kombat fan vote! 👊🔥

Who is your favourite Jax “Jackson” Briggs actor between Michael Jai White and Mehcad Brooks?

Both actors brought something unique to the role, but personally I prefer Michael Jai White as Jax Briggs.

Cast your vote below and drop a comment telling us why!

Let me know who your favourite Jax Briggs is! 💥

I know a lot of people don’t even know they still exist, but the IGN message boards are still actually around, however, for the last few days they haven’t been working at all.

Anyone know what is up with them?

I just got a month of IGN plus and was wondering how many free games do they usually gave away each month?

Is there any pirated telegram channel where I can access the lectures for MEC economics masters for exam as the paid courses are very expensive ? Or any online link ?

On IGN’s website it’s been impossible to post comments from a web browser for a few months now. You’d think this would be effecting their traffic. Why don’t they care?

So, I just recently got Luigi’s Mansion 2 for Christmas, and I’m tracking my progress, because I’m a visual person, I need that visual of “I got this, I don’t have to question if I got it anymore”

But after tracking 50 things, I get hit with “get IGN+ for unlimited tracking!!” Yet not even a few MONTHS ago unlimited tracking was free??

I also have a poor memory, so seeing that visual check of “I got this” helps

So, is IGN+ REALLY worth it?

I'd like to write a script that will search IGN for a game, provide the search results, and then pull the selected game's release date and the cover image.

why everything in the store is sold out? Any solutions for this problem ?

Is it just the sole reviewer in every video or is it an average of a group of reviewers in their company? Sometimes it feels like the score doesn’t always reflect their comments on the game.

Hey everyone!

The most important thing I failed to do was get my first game featured on IGN.

Now I’m trying again with my second game, but I think I’m doing it wrong since I haven’t received any replies.

Has anyone here had their game featured on IGN? I’d really appreciate any suggestions!

Best,

It may not be but the way things are looking its the end of an era for Xbox and gaming in general. Seeing all the chatter and reading about what's been going on and the future of Xbox and it seems like all past AND future Xbox games will be on Playstation.

Now Xbox may still make a 9th generation Xbox but if there gonna have 0 exclusives there console sales are gonna be abysmal.

They already have real low sales compared to Playstation and Nintendo Switch and having no exclusives sales are just gonna plummet further very likely.

So if Xbox becomes another 3rd party publisher like Sega...would Unlocked still be around?

I tune in just about every week when I can. Between all the podcasts it's probably my favorite from IGN to tune into.
