The greatest Xbox podcast crossover ever happens now! IGN’s Podcast Unlocked and Kinda Funny’s Xcast have joined forces for an Xbox podcast tour-de-force. First we discuss the brilliance of Alan Wake 2 and the Max Payne 1+2 Remakes that Remedy is about to go into full production on before discussing Gears of War creator Cliff Bleszinski’s recent comments about Gears needing a reboot. And then the main event: our Xbox first-party studio fantasy draft! Now that Microsoft’s Activision-Blizzard acquisition has happened, we thought it’d be a fun time to each draft three studios who we’re most excited about for the next five years. Who will get chosen? Who will get left out? Join us, and don’t forget to go to humblebundle.com and pick up the IGN Editor’s Choice Bundle, the proceeds of which benefit the Extra Life children’s charity!

Ryan McCaffrey is IGN’s executive editor of previews and host of both IGN’s weekly Xbox show, Podcast Unlocked, as well as our monthly(-ish) interview show, IGN Unfiltered. He’s a North Jersey guy, so it’s “Taylor ham,” not “pork roll.” Debate it with him on Twitter at @DMC_Ryan.
