The only IGN podcast I listen to still is Keepin it Reel, the most Bombcast like. What I mean is they are clearly nerdy in there subject field, but still funny without going to pure immature crap. Plus the guys at GB let the conversations actually develop, I guess the 2+ hour runtime does that to you. When GB shares personal stories they are always great and paint them as pretty much video game nerds (which I love!), the guys at IGN try and act like there cool or something. Look at the ages though Ryan and Jeff are in there mid 30's I think, while most of the IGN guys are under 30, it's like comparing a professional to some freshman in college really.
Plus IGN has the biggest douche in the biz aka a man named Hillary... yah listen to 10 minutes of him on a podcast, sorry but acting like your the shit and better than your coworkers and your opinion is the only one that matters is not funny.
I discovered Bombcast last year and never turned back, it's amazing if you compare sites. Bombcast has everything you need, IGN posts about 100x the amount of articles and most of them are just pointless.
Why do people listen to so many gaming podcasts? I think 2+ hours of bombcast is just perfect, I only listen to 1 podcast per subject area really, people must have much longer drives than me!
