How Iron Man’s Journey Always Led to Thanos
Starting today, we’re taking a closer look at each of the founding MCU Avengers and how their stories have led them to their final confrontation with Thanos. First up today is Iron Man and his journey to Avengers: Endgame.
Iron Man kicked off the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and though it may not seem like it at first glance, his entire character arc has been leading to an epic confrontation with Thanos. It took years for Marvel’s premiere hero and villain to meet face-to-face, but they actually battled against each other for years in what boils down to an intergalactic game of shadow chess where Tony didn’t even know the identity of his opponent. As we prepare for the release of Avengers: Endgame, here’s a look back at Tony Stark’s journey and how it all led to the Mad Titan.
Up At Noon: Bad N64 Games On Switch, Suda51’s Airplane Poops, and Our Crash Bandicoot Theory
Hey! Here’s the very first episode of the all-new, fully-rebooted, flavor-blasted, industrial strength Up At Noon! In case you missed the announcement here along with our totally insane teaser trailer, we’ve taken some time to retool the show after tons of demand to bring it back. From celebrity and game developer interviews to lists, unboxings, and nonsense, Up at Noon has long been a cornerstone of IGN and we’re ecstatic to have it return.
How have we retooled it? Well, this time around we’re taking over weekends on IGN, which is probably the best time of the week to actually wake up at noon. We’ve upped the production value a bunch, too! It’s also no longer live, and now exists primarily as a bunch of silly bite-sized segments that will be going up every weekend all across the internet, which we’ll also be stitching them together into a proper variety show exclusively on IGN, which is what this is! You’ll also be able to watch break-out clips from the show on IGN’s YouTube channel every weekend! So grab a huge bowl of sugary cereal (or a healthier breakfast or whatever) and think of it as adult Nickelodeon or a live-action Saturday morning cartoon.

Pokemon Go Shiny Meltan Event Returning Next Week
If you missed your first chance to catch a Shiny Meltan in Pokemon Go this past February, you’re in luck. Niantic is bringing the Meltan event back for a limited time beginning April 24, giving players around the world another opportunity to capture the Shiny form of the new Mythical Pokemon.
Unlike other Pokemon, Meltan will only appear in Pokemon Go if you’ve opened the Mystery Box, an item you get in the mobile game after you’ve transferred a Gen 1 Pokemon to Let’s Go Pikachu or Eevee on Nintendo Switch. Typically, the Mystery Box will close after 30 minutes, and you’ll need to wait seven days before opening it again; during the Meltan event, however, you’ll be able to re-open it after three days, allowing you to find Meltan much quicker than usual.
You’ll also have a chance of encountering a Shiny Meltan each time you open the Mystery Box. You can tell the Shiny variant apart by its darker head and blue tail. If you manage to catch a Shiny Meltan and evolve it into Melmetal, it’ll retain its Shiny coloration. However, you’ll only be able to find Shiny Meltan until May 5, so you’ll want to act fast if you’re hoping to get one. You can read more on how to catch the Mythical Pokemon in our Meltan and Melmetal guide.
Meltan isn’t the only Shiny Pokemon appearing in Pokemon Go soon. To celebrate the inaugural Safari Zone event in Singapore, the rare Gen 2 Pokemon Shuckle will be appearing around the world from April 20-21. During that time, players will also have their first chance to find Shiny Shuckle. Shiny Latios is also available as part of a special Raid event, which is set to end on April 22.
Not long after the Meltan event ends, Niantic will be holding Pokemon Go’s next Community Day. That event is scheduled to take place on Sunday, May 19, and this time around the featured Pokemon will be Torchic, one of the three starters from Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire. You’ll also be able to earn triple the usual amount of Stardust for every Pokemon you catch during May’s Community Day.
