Up at Noon was a comedic video game talk show that aired on IGN from 2012 to 2017. The show was hosted by Alexis Cozombolidis, Greg Miller, and Brian Altano, three personalities within the video game industry known for their wit and humor. Up at Noon sought to capture the energy of a late-night talk show, but focus entirely on video games and gamer culture.

The show was broken into distinct segments, each designed to showcase a different aspect of the gaming world. The show kicked off with a comedic monologue delivered by Greg Miller, who would riff on recent news within the gaming industry. Following the monologue, the show would move into a more structured segment, such as "Game of the Week". During this segment, the hosts would discuss and review a recently released game while also providing their thoughts on the gaming industry as a whole.

Another popular segment of the show was "The Question Block", where viewers sent in questions related to the gaming industry. The questions ranged from lighthearted to serious, and the hosts used the opportunity to inject humor into their responses. Viewers could submit questions via social media or email, with the hosts selecting which ones to answer on each episode.

Up at Noon also featured interviews with major figures within the gaming industry. These guests included game developers, journalists, and even celebrities with a passion for gaming. During these interviews, the hosts would ask in-depth questions about the guests' involvement in the gaming industry, as well as delve into the broader gaming culture.

One of the most distinctive aspects of Up at Noon was the show's comedic skits. These skits were often pre-recorded and included everything from fake commercials to parody music videos. The skits were created to both entertain viewers and to highlight notable aspects of the gaming world.

Throughout its run, Up at Noon remained highly-regarded by both gaming enthusiasts and industry insiders. The show's combination of humor and industry insight made it a refreshing addition to the gaming media landscape. The chemistry between the three hosts was undeniable, and their personalities shone through in every segment.

At times, Up at Noon could feel a bit chaotic, with the hosts bouncing between topics and segments with little warning. However, this was part of the charm of the show, and it kept viewers engaged and entertained throughout each episode.

Overall, Up at Noon was an excellent example of video game coverage done right. The show managed to blend humor and industry insight effortlessly, resulting in a unique and highly entertaining viewing experience. Even years after its finale, Up at Noon remains beloved by the gaming community and is regarded as a standout example of gaming-focused media.
