It’s like a series of System Shock-esque audio logs from PAX. This isn’t your usual Hey Poor Podcast. This week, we sent occasional investigative reporter and Hey Poor Podcast regular Jay Petrequin to the PAX East show floor, where he spent four days playing games until he wanted to die. His only communication with the outside world (besides, like, Twitter and Facebook and Skype and his phone and stuff) was a series of fascinating audio logs, which we have edited together into a podcast-like configuration suitable for your ears and home. Here you’ll find discussions of every game that mattered, interviews with the developers of some of the most exciting upcoming indie titles, tales of Shake Shack, and more! (This episode also features Derek McCurry,… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 123: The Hey Poor Player PAX East Experience appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“It Ain’t The Sharpest Cast In The Pod” This week’s Hey Poor Podcast sees the old crew of I “Steamed Hams Inc.” Coleman, Jay “Sister Confession” Petrequin, and Nathaniel “Nico Naked Nathan” Terencio reunited for the first time in 2018. And not a moment too soon, either – from Battlefront II to Shadow of the Colossus to the never-ending parade of cool Switch ports, there’s lots of games to talk about. Plus: I Coleman can’t find anything bad to say about They Are Billions, Nathan rates the attractiveness of every single Smash Bros. character (#1 may surprise you), Jay tries to analyze the fall of the Marvel Netflix shows, and the POTUS made a half-assed attempt at regulating videogame violence. Oh, and there’s an extended discussion… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 122: Sy Snootles Settles It In Smash appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“Some people are a waste of perfectly good carbon.” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, I “Incredibly Sick” Coleman tries unsuccessfully to hide the fact that he’s sick, Nathan “No Ding Dong Talk” Terencio misses the good ol’ days of tag team fighting games, and Age of Empires: Definitive Edition is perhaps the most disappointing HD remake of all time. Oh, also: the ESRB made it clear that it has no interest in dealing with the loot box gambling issue, and President Game Show Host thinks mass shootings are caused by unregulated access to videogames. Oh well. At least Black Panther was awesome. (Note: there’s no way we could discuss the major news of the last week without getting political, so skip the news… Read More...

The games that made us happy in a year full of sad On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, we assemble an all-star cast of Hey Poor Player contributors to count down our official ranking of the 25 best games of the year. Host I “RUINER” Coleman is joined by Jay “Pyre” Petrequin, Nathaniel “Rakuen” Terencio, Jonathan “Uncharted: Lost Legacy” Trussler, and Dougie “Dream Daddy” Powell to discuss the games that made us laugh, the games that made us cry, the games that did something truly unique, and the tried-and-true games that just did what they did with style and excellence. Strap in, folks, because we’ve got two and a half hours of lively discussion. We’ve got a diverse list of games and… Read More...

“I love that heartwarming family special about ripping all the teeth straight out of a dude’s head.” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, we talk about Last Jedi spoilers. Seriously. This is not a joke or a bit – we spoil the whole dang movie. Still, that’s no reason not to curl up by the fire with a glass of nog or nog substitute and listen to I “Snow Miser” Coleman and Jay “Heat Miser” Petrequin discuss why Star Wars‘ eighth episode is easily one of the best movies of the year, extol the merits of DOOM‘s Switch port (now that Bethesda’s bothered to fix some of the more glaring issues), catch up on some of the year’s best games, movies, books, and music;… Read More...

“This is why we fight, Charmander. It’s not so that we can win. It’s so that, for however brief a moment, we can inflict pain on a world that will not let us end.” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, an innocent discussion about Pikachu’s new found ability to speak English in Pokemon The Movie: I Choose You becomes a tale of nihilism, despair, and the fruitless belief that something good is coming. Because videogames! Join I “Detective Pikachu (English Dub)” Coleman, Nathan “Gigafarts” Terencio, and Jay “Archie Peglio” Petrequin as we dunk on Justice League, try and fail to get Neir: Automata’s garbage PC port to work, wish that Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon could be more fun than they are,… Read More...

“PARKER! Reblog pictures of the SPOIDAHMAN!” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, I “My Life Was A Mistake” Coleman is joined by Jay “Behold The Juice” Petrequin for an episode that gets into everything from the real-life implications of gamer-focused political campaigns to how Telltale’s Batman game managed to cause an international incident with Russia. No, seriously. It’s been a crazy week, but we still have time to talk about what makes Mario Odyssey so great, the hilariously bad DOOM portable port, the future of the Nintendo Switch, and how Thor Ragnarok‘s  Jack-Kirby-inspired comic book stylings might have made it the best Marvel film of all time. All this and more, only on the Hey Poor Podcast! Games/Films/Etc of the week: Mario… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 117: J. Jonah Jameson’s Tumblr appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“That was the Dark Souls of agreements, right there.” On this week’s Hey Poor Podcast, what the hell is a videogame? It’s all movie talk here, as I “Holder Of The Cursed Microphone” Coleman and Jay “Absolutely Into Vore” Petrequin discuss how Blade Runner 2049 may not be pretentious enough, why The LEGO Ninjago Movie is uncomfortably mediocre, and the bizarre fact that the Detective Pikachu movie is a thing that exists in the real world. Also: I’s still obsessed with Sonic Mania, Jay bought a whole new 3DS to play Metroid: Samus Returns, Hiveswap is pretty much exactly what you think it is, and IGN is probably up to some shady shit. Yes, again. All this and more, on the Hey Poor Podcast! Information… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 116: Donkey Kong’s Fingers appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“It’s the story of a Nokia cell phone, but she’s a little girl with big breasts.” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast: bad news, guys! No longer content merely with shoving it down our throats every time they re-release any of their “classic” games, Nintendo has now declared that Balloon Fight for the NES is now the only game that will ever be released on anything, ever. Despite this chilling news, I “I Thought I Was Hot Shit” Coleman, Nathan “Looks 8 But Is 100 Years Old” Terencio, and Anthony “Bootleg Mickey Mouse ” Spivey manage to squeeze two hours of podcast out of discussions of games that no longer exist. I got a Switch and still isn’t impressed, Nathan thinks you should play… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 115: Balloon Fight Is Now The Only Game appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“Oh, great! A Legendary Shader of Ugly!” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, we decide we’re through with creating quality content and decide to pitch a terrible self-insert nerd fanfiction to Steven Spielberg. Because after all, it worked for Ready Player One. Join overweight nerd protagonist I “Your ASMR” Coleman and samurai pizza deliveryman Nathan “An Average Kid Who No One Understands” Terencio as we discuss the amazingly, hilariously terrible PC port of Sonic Mania, the startling similarities between Destiny 2 and Killing Floor 2, the greatest match in competitive Super Smash Bros history, and the thrilling conclusion to Mario/Rabbids RPG Watch. Plus: a surprising amount of serious discussion about representation and racism in media, or as the cool kids are calling it, “SJW… Read More...

“Wow, Nathan’s not even here and he’s ruining the podcast.” This week, the Hey Poor Podcast forgets that videogames exist and turns into a streaming TV review show. Again. Join I “I Could Go For A Ko-Taco” Coleman and forgotten fan favorite Anthony “That Clip Of Those Wrestlers Yelling ‘He’s Fat’” Spivey as they discuss the good, bad, and ugly of trans-media adaptations, from Amazon’s excellent new Tick series to Netflix’s accursed Death Note film. We do manage to sneak in some videogame talk, though – including why Sonic Mania might be the best 2D Sonic game, how Half Life 3’s story got leaked and what makes it so terrible, the terrifying implications of Mario Rabbids Kingdom Battle’s “unexpected story content,” and some actual on-air… Read More...

“Bubsy’s business card doesn’t fit in a rolodex! Bubsy’s business card doesn’t BELONG in a rolodex!” It’s been a lousy week for the games industry, folks, which means it’s been a great week for the Hey Poor Podcast. Join I “I’m Gonna Change The Intro/Outro Music To Wonderwall, See If I Don’t” Coleman, Jay “uggggggggggggggghhhh” Petrequin, and Nathan “Rose Of Ver-salads” Terencio as we discuss the good (the season finale of Freemaker Adventures), the meh (Lawbreakers), and the bad (Nintendo’s being awful, Microsoft’s being awful, Bioware’s being awful, and Bethesda’s being extra super MEGA awful.) Plus: Bubsy’s back! Because ours is no longer a world that can support happiness. All this and more, on the Hey Poor Podcast! Games/Films/Etc of the week: Lawbreakers, Severed’s Switch… Read More...

“We gotta get out of the bit!” Guys, we know it’s two hours long, but you gotta understand – this week’s Hey Poor Podcast is almost certainly the best we’ve ever done. I “Subject X” Coleman and Jay “Suck Weed” Petrequin may have a reputation for arguing with each other about everything under the sun, but in this episode they join forces for a much more noble goal: arguing with the entire rest of the games industry about everything under the sun. We take on lazy games writers and the lazy writing techniques that sustain them, hateful gamers and their love of hate, and – of course – the ever-revolting antics of “Scum Companies, or Scumpanies.” It’s not all negative, though – we’ve got lots… Read More...

“That’s not a druid. That’s just every homeless guy in San Francisco.” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, it’s up to I “Chocolate Torte And Apple Cider” Coleman and Nathan “Green Tea And Lumpia” Terencio to hold down the fort – the Fort Nite, tha is! We compare and contrast the business models of Epic’s new “it should be free” $40 build-em-up with Motiga’s adorable development hell MOBA Gigantic, discuss how Paco The Demon Frog has found his way into yet another game, complain about why The Dark Tower isn’t a better movie than it is, and even somehow have a conversation about DC’s Infinite Crisis, a game that nobody played or remembers. Plus big announcements, comfort food, a frank and slightly… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 110: Gross Fat Hook Boy appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“Konichiwa, True Believers! We’ve got a kawaii caper for you this evening, in the classic Marvel style!” We’re not gonna lie to you, folks: thanks to some Jay-shaped technical difficulties, we actually recorded this episode of the Hey Poor Podcast two weeks ago and are just getting it up now. Whoops. Hopefully Comic-Con is still relevant in this, the dark future of August 2017. To make up for it, it’s an extra-long, extra-chunky episode featuring appearances from all your favorite HPPeople: I “I’m Too Sick For Jokes” Coleman, Nathan “Credit Card Out” Terencio, Jay “I Know We’ve Gone Long On This Already BUT…” Petrequin, and Anthony “I Forgot What Narnia Was For A Second” Spivey. We’ll continue the ongoing Centaur VS Dead Centaur debate, ink… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 109: Excelsior, Senpai appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“THRILL as the hosts of the Hey Poor Podcast just take a friggin’ nap.” Well, folks, it’s official – the games industry has hit the summer slump, and that means an episode of the Hey Poor Podcast which, generously, talks about videogames for a whole 30 minutes of its 2-hour runtime. Join I “Mademoiselle Doume” Coleman, Anthony “Racist Against Centaurs” Spivey, and Nathan “Fever Dream” Terencio, all of whom got somewhere between 0 and 3 solid hours of sleep before the show starts. This means that relatively sane conversations about KantCon 2017, Kingdom Hearts’ increasingly nonsensical existence, the new anime season, and the flaws of Spider-Man: Homecoming have to share space with an argument about Coke or “Pepps,” the Great Centaur Debate, and the sound… Read More...

“This Is I Coleman’s Last Day Of Being Alive” Jay’s not here for this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, and you know what that means: unchecked anime bullshit. Join I “Mister Tumnus Could Probably Get It” Coleman, Nathan “All Vending Machines Are Queens” Terencio, and Anthony “Japan Is Dumb” Spivey as we discuss how the Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy is definitely exactly like Dark Souls, why Reigns is probably the best mobile game of the year, the dark videogames-as-anime-girls-based timeline proposed by Superdimension Neptune, and how Battlefront II is trying to get away with being just as greedy as Battlefront 2015 (maybe.) Plus: games we’d like to see more of, Baby Driver is the best film of the year, Nathan pursues a lucrative… Read More...

“It’s like a really bad Zack Snyder film. AKA any Zack Snyder film.” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, Nathan “Some Garbage Is Okay” Terencio returns for a surprisingly low-key and forthright chat with I “I Would Leave My Girlfriend For Doom” Coleman. We discuss everything from the mediocre games we had to review this week to the untimely death of Dawn of War III to Sony’s continued insistence on being a piece of shit to its customers. Plus: I gushes about Wonder Woman even though everyone’s already see it, Serious Sam’s Bogus Detour is the best shooter of the year, and we have a much, much too long conversation about videogame-based porn parodies. All this and more, on the Hey Poor… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 106: A Miserable Little Pile Of Secrets appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“Wait, wait…I Coleman? Talking about…DOOM?! I need a moment.” A mom-themed episode of the Hey Poor Podcast? How appropriate! Just in time for Father’s Day! Nathan was off, I dunno, being dead or something, so this week it’s up to I “Talks About The Same Two Videogames Every Week” Coleman, Jay “Great Service Clean Tables” Petrequin, and Anthony “I’m Sorry For The Beginning Of The Podcast” Spivey to wade through the stagnant sea of E3 hype and see if there’s anything left worth talking about. Along the way, Jay and I have another of their trademark Extremely Polite Arguments (this time about Battlefront II), Anthony and I spend way too long extolling the virtues of the Captain Underpants movie, and we actually have time to… Read More...

“We haven’t committed any podcast crimes yet.” This week is a very special episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, and not just because it’s two days late! Regular host I Coleman is nowhere to be found, and instead, former host Jay “Objectively Wrong About In-N-Out” Petrequin leads Francis “” Dipersio, Nathan “All Women Are Queens” Terencio, and Mike “Too Old For This Shit” Vito in a discussion live from the E3 showfloor. Talking Points: Moss, OK K.O., Steven Universe: Save The Light, Sonic Mania, DragonBall Fighter Z, Ace Combat 7, Gundam Versus, Ni No Kuni 2 Have a question or coded message for the Hey Poor Podcast?

“If you really cared about this podcast you would kill your dogs.” Look into my single bloodshot eye. Are you ready to join the Hey Poor Player Initiative? I “Loudest Critic On The Site” Coleman, Jay “Corpul Forkul” Petrequin, Nathan “Anime” Terencio, and Anthony “Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot” Spivey certainly are, with an episode so chock-full of content that Audacity decided of its own free will to permanently delete some of our audio just to get it to the two hour mark (sorry about that.) Still, there’s a lot to enjoy, whether we’re forcing Nathan to undergo a terrible dark ritual to prove his loyalty to the show, extolling the virtues of DC’s Wonder Woman, bitching about terrible roguelikes, or giving a very in-depth explanation… Read More...

“It’s very much a ‘make peace with your so-called god’ facial expression.” Now I know what you’re saying: isn’t every episode of the Hey Poor Podcast the tangent episode? Well, hypothetical friend, let me tell ya – this episode makes every other episode we’ve done look on-topic and relevant. I “I Spent Two Hours Trying To Edit The Echoes Out Of My Audio Sorry” Coleman, in particular, tramples over everyone else’s section, but Anthony “I Should See A Doctor” Spivey and Jay “I Am Happy To Agree” Petrequin get in on the action too, as we talk about everything from Chicken Run to Mirage: Arcane Warfare, Orange is the New Black to how to get that perfect Danny DeVito body. Also: exciting new developments in… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 102: The Tangent Episode appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“Man, I’m so glad I don’t listen to this podcast.” It’s been a couple weeks since we had a proper Hey Poor Podcast. What did I “Perpetually Trapped 15-Year-Old Goth Girl” Coleman, Nathan “Bad Anime Defense Force” Terencio, and Anthony “I Will Hit You” Spivey miss during the break? Well, YouTube drama, a Fire Emblem game whose DLC costs more than its base asking price, and Marvel movie discourse. Also: a very long conversation about what Two Face’s downstairs looks like. So, in other words, business as usual. Ah, well. At least the Reservoir Dogs game turned out to be surprisingly good. Games/Films/Etc of the Week: Fire Emblem Echoes, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Godzilla: Resurgence, the Persona 4 Second Opinion, Rakuen, Your Name,… Read More...

Celebrating 100 Consecutive-ish Weeks Of Videogame-Related Nonsense HeyPoorPlayer.com and Muganex™ Brand Flavor-Enhanced Gummy Vitamin Tablets are proud to present the Hey Poor Podcast’s 100th Episode Centennial Celebration, recorded live at the El Paco Theater in Sea Man, Texas. It’s got everything – best-of clips, interviews with the cast and crew, musical numbers, lost clips, and more! And it’s all brought to you by Muganex™, the only gummy vitamin solution that guarantees descension. In all seriousness, getting to host this podcast for the last 30 episodes has been both a privilege and an honor, and I think I speak for all of our cast members past and present when I say that we are thrilled beyond thrilled that our dumb videogame podcast has lasted this long.… Read More...

“I take back everything bad I’ve ever said about the Switch.” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, we actually report on some actual news, for once, as Mario/Rabbids RPG Watch comes to its spectacular conclusion. Join I “Dawn of War III Opinions” Coleman, Anthony “The Circle Opinions” Spivey, and Nathan “No Opinions” Terencio as they give their long-form thoughts on Dawn of War III, answer questions about food, give a behind-the-scenes look at the origins of “Second Opinion”, and guys I can’t finish the rest of the summary this week, Mario+Rabbids Kingdom Battle is a real thing, it’s actually real and it’s happening, and it got announced halfway through us recording the podcast, so you get to hear our reactions in R… Read More...

“It’s the A-Paco-lypse” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, join I “There Is Only Paco” Coleman, Nathan “There Is Only Paco” Terencio, Jay “There Is Only Paco” Petrequin as we celebrate the strongest and best character in videogames: Paco, the friendly frog! When not celebrating the glory and the majesty of Paco, who appears in our dreams and lives behind our eyes, we discuss the first episode of Telltale’s Guardians of the Galaxy, the bizarre existential inspiration of The Search, our fears about Star Wars: Battlefront II (not to be confused with Star Wars: Battlefront II even though they have the exact same name), and the future of inclusivity in eSports. We also recommend loads of good games during the commercial break, and we… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 98: There Is Only Paco appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“Klondike Crunch – It’s The Product Of Adultery!” It’s a miracle – on this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, I “Diehard Sony Fanboy Apparently” Coleman, Anthony “Persona 5 Came Out And So Did I” Spivey, Nathan “I Didn’t Know I Was Muted” Terencio, and Jay “Kylo Ren Apologist” Petrequin manage to pretty much stay on topic the entire time. Shocking, I know, but that’s what happens when we have so many things to talk about, whether it’s debating the merits of the Mystery Science Theater 3000 reboot, gushing over Persona 5, or dissecting the many high-profile trailers that dropped this week. Plus: Nathan regales us with a story of candy betrayal, we all have a long discussion about videogame soundtracks, and I gets… Read More...

“Swing your arms from side to side! Don’t let them see the gun in your pocket!” The Hey Poor Podcast is cancelled, everybody! Videogames are old news. It’s time for everybody to get with the times and talk about what’s really important: The Super Mario Bros. Super Show. This isn’t a joke: ever since it arrived on Netflix, it’s all I “Troad” Coleman, Jay “I’m Connected To The Mob!” Petrequin, and Nathan “I Somehow Didn’t Talk About Anything Gross This Week” Terencio have been able to think about, and we seriously spend the first 11 minutes or so of this podcast just talking about stuff like that time Mario straight-up killed somebody in the first episode. But don’t worry, we also make time for the… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 96: Hooked On The Brothers appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“We love you, I, because the alternative is demise.” Something deep, deep inside of our favorite Hey Poor Podcast host has been broken. I “The Hypocritical Death Murderer Machine” Coleman not only spends much of this episode threatening to murder his co-hosts (Jay “Don’t Touch My SJW Cuck Eggs” Petrequin, Anthony “Always Wrong” Spivey, and Nathan “Vindicated” Terencio), but also admits to watching and even enjoying anime. Believe it or not, this all makes more sense if you’ve seen Smurfs: The Lost Village, which is now considered Hey Poor Podcast canon. Alongside the fact that this week’s episode became a fascinating piece of Smurf-based gothic horror entertainment, we were also able to talk about some of the month’s big releases, like Yooka-Laylee, Persona 5, and… Read More...

“The SJW Conspiracy is real and we’re all in on it. That’s what my Twitter mentions tell me.” Well, you’ve done it now, ignorant Internet commenters. You’ve called us all “cucks” and “SJWs” one too many times, and the result? Terrible to behold. This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, join I “Doomm Man” Coleman, Nathaniel “Filth Man” Terencio, Anthony “90s Anime Protagonist Man” Spivey for a discussion of this week’s big game announcements, the year in anime, and why Troll and I might be the most poorly-optimized game of all time. Plus: why Yu-Gi-Oh was off the chain, a discussion of the miserable Netflix Death Note trailer, and a really surprisingly lengthy discussion of Willem Dafoe’s acting abilities. All this and more, on the… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 94: The Cuckularity appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“WARNING: You Are Not Ready For This.” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, I “The Juggler” Coleman, Jay “Hello My Ragtime Gal” Petrequin, Anthony “Nanthony Plivey” Spivey, and Nathan “The Jerker” Terencio get an exclusive tip: Seaman’s back, baby, and he’s even more unsettling and unplayable than ever. While you’re still “reeling” from that revelation, don’t forget to listen to the rest of the episode, where we’ll discuss Mass Effect Andromeda‘s terrible animations, Wizards of the Coast’s new D&D app, the disappointing Iron Fist, and a whole host of terrible videogames we had to review. We also talk about the best episode of Pokemon ever, the million bajillion open world games that have come out this month, and (for some reason) the many flaws… Read More...

“K**** T****” This week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast has a name so terrible it must never be spoken aloud, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t listen! Join your host Nathan I “Sold Out” Coleman and HPPodcast regulars Jay “PAX Pox” Petrequin, Anthony “The Coming Blue Hedgehog” Spivey, and Nathan “A Very Good Boy” Terencio for an episode full of dark truths and fearful incantations. In addition, Jay tells us about the demos he played at PAX East, we discuss Breath of the Wild and Nier: Automata like every other gaming podcast this week, and the singular entity previously known as Nathan and I puts forward an exciting new opportunity for a live Hey Poor Podcast. Games/Films/Etc of the Week: Arms, Splatoon 2, Pyre,… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 92: Title Unspeakable appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“We have to build a female.” This week is the Hey Poor Podcast’s Nintendo Switch Stunt Spectacular, and it literally only takes three minutes before somebody makes an inappropriate joke about HD Rumble. Huzzah! Join I “anIme” Coleman, Jay “AniJay” Petrequin, Nathan “Nathanime” Terencio, and Anthony “Anthime” Spivey for a special episode that does a deep dive into our hands-on experiences with Nintendo’s latest half-assed foray into console gaming. Along the way, we also talk a lot about Nathan’s time at GDC, furry emotion simulator Night in the Woods, and why Logan might be the greatest superhero film of all time. Plus: we finally get through our two-week backlog of questions! So hopefully you like hearing four non-black guys trying to discuss hip hop, or… Read More...

“Hey Poor Player: The Fake News Of Videogames” Nathan’s at GDC, so this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast features I “One Ghost And Zero Blades” Coleman, Jay “Some Kinda Awesome Robot Dragon” Petrequin, and Anthony “Fantasy Vending Machine” Spivey, all of whom wish they could be at GDC, too. Join us for an episode that’s short but sweet as we discuss obscure early pen-and-paper RPGs, elements that make or break a game for us, a game whose entire campaign can be completed in 20 minutes, and a troubling new television program that finally shows the familial side of non-geometric shapes. We also discuss why we’re worried about the Nintendo Switch, how I finally got around to playing Bioshock, and the fact that Shadow… Read More...

“Have I just committed an atrocity maybe?” Jay couldn’t make it this week, so it’s once again up to I “Supernun” Coleman, Nathan “Gross Man Yaoi Hands” Terencio, and Anthony “Sweaty Danny DeVito” Spivey to hold down the Hey Poor Podcast fort. Join this grim trio for an episode about chibi Portuguese explorers in Neo ATLAS 1469, Nathan’s hands-on experience with a Nintendo Switch, and an impassioned rant about why Yuri On Ice is a bad show, actually. Fair warning, we also talked quite a bit about PewDiePie in the news portion. Not only is it the biggest story in gaming this week, but this is a podcast hosted by a Jew, and we talked it over and felt it was worth breaking our “no… Read More...

“Which Of Us Is Gonna Jump Off A Bridge Mid-Episode?” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, we’ve finally managed to get the whole crew together: I “Check Out My Other Podcast” Coleman, Jay “Only Pokemon” Petrequin, Nathan “Big Titty Spiders” Terencio, and Anthony “At Least I’m Not Nathan” Spivey. Gather round as the HPP Avengers assemble to talk about why The Lego Batman Movie is the best superhero film in years, how Portal Knights manages to be more than just another Minecraft ripoff, what happens when game/film/comic stories get too complicated without adding depth, and more! We even talked about God’s Not Dead this week, for some reason. Probably because Nathan needs to find Jesus. Games/Films/TV of the Week: Overwatch’s Year of… Read More...

“Comedy Is Hard, As This Show Demonstrates” This week, host I “I Don’t Have Any Waifus” Coleman is once again joined by HeyPoorPlayer’s biggest fans of highly questionable anime: Anthony “Two MS Paint Legs Sticking Out Of Each Breast” Spivey and Nathan “The Animal Crossing Murderer” Terencio. This episode manages to be much more reserved (and much more PG) than the last episode with this trio, with plenty of discussion of gaming memories, Nintendo’s continued attempts to sabotage their own products, and the perceived difference between art and entertainment. But it’s not all serious, as we also talk about a bold new design for The Legend of Zelda’s Navi, Nathan’s weird obsession with the possibility of a Nintendo theme part, and the greatest animated television… Read More...

“You Too Can Help Us Kill Nathan” This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, we get the band back together with I “John Romero Retweeted Me” Coleman, Jay “Good Good Space Kids” Petrequin, and Nathan “Tony The Tiger’s Lover” Terencio. And this episode’s an interesting one, because it mixes some seriously deep discussions of game theory and game design with conversations about marrying cereal mascots, Conan Exile’s phallus physics, and Bologna Pikachu. We also got eight questions from one forum user this week, which leads to probably the weirdest and most viscerally upsetting audience question segment the show’s ever had, or ever will have. All in all, it’s as close as this show gets to a perfect ep. Enjoy! Games/Films/TV of the Week: Spore, The… Read More...

Milk The Waifu Train In this ScrungCo™-sponsored episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, I “I’m Deleting The Podcast” Coleman is left alone with Nathaniel “Some Garbage Is Okay” Terencio, and Anthony “Generic Fantasy Word” Spivey, and it goes exactly as well as you’d expect. Listen to I get increasingly agitated by discussions of a new Pokemon that wishes only for death, a Starbucks-drinking millennial Godzilla, a legal battle royale between famous game developers, and waifus. LOTS of waifus. Fear not, though, dear listeners – while this episode is one of our silliest in a long time, we still have time to discuss the future of the Nintendo Switch, remember the garbage MMOs we played as children, talk about some great underappreciated gaming gems, and workshop… Read More...

“I Would Die For Minions DLC” This week’s episode of the HeyPoorPodcast’s got what you need – provided that what you need is an almost solid hour of talking about the Nintendo Switch. Join I “Get Into The Queue” Coleman, Nathaniel “Memmays” Terencio, and Jay “Don’t.” Petrequin for another hilariously sleep-deprived episode that discusses everything from the early 2000s randomcore humor of Rogue Stache to a retrospective discussion on Undertale’s long year to why Nathaniel’s wrong about Netflix’s original programming. Also: did we mention the Switch? Its haptic feedback is already being used to simulate the human phallus. Because of course it is. Games of the Week: Monster Hunter Cross, Dishonored 2, Ghost 1.0, Rogue Stache, Duo, Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, Undertale Audience Questions: Shitposting,… Read More...

“I Have The Shotgun Prepared To Old Yeller This Year” On this week’s episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, I “DOOM” Coleman, Jay “Overwatch” Petrequin, Anthony “Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth” Spivey, and Jonathan “Flame in the Flood” Trussler join forces once again for the second half of our Farewell to 2016. In this episode, we discuss HeyPoorPlayer’s top 25 games of the year in our usual rambly, humorous, unfiltered style (seriously – there was some drinking, and as a result, there’s a bit more swearing than usual.) Our games of the year are also available in article form, and while I won’t list them here in the description, I will put them in the tags of this page if you absolutely can’t wait. It’s been… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 83: The 25 Best Games Of 2016 appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

I Has News And Jay Has Memes On this week’s episode, we start the new year as we mean to go on: with off-key singing, laughter, and deep, deep regrets. Join I “Good Ending” Coleman, Anthony “Bad Anime Consultant” Spivey, Jay “The Experience” Petrequin, and Jonathan “The British Accent Telling Us To Stop” Trussler as they do a deep dive through the biggest gaming news of 2016 and remember the year that took so much from us. We discuss the rise and fall of “The Year of VR”, how the Playstation 4 won the latest console war, consoles made of duct tape, lousy videogame movies, and so much more! Plus, tune in next week when we’ll announce HPP’s official Game(s) Of The Year. Oh, and… Read More... The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 82: The 2016 Year In Review appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

“The Rumor Come Out: Does Poor Player Is Hey?” This week’s episode is a long one, but you owe it to yourself to listen to all of it. The all-star cast of I “Age of Vampires” Coleman, Jay “Pokemon Trainer” Petrequin, and Nathaniel “The Kyle” Terencio, plus a combination of sleep deprivation and holiday cheer, resulted in an episode that’s as earnest and heartfelt as it is really, really silly. Smart discussion of nuanced game criticism gives way to a conversation about Waifu Wars, personal conversations about the games that made us are featured alongside ranting and raving about the Steam Awards. Plus: Age of Empires II shitposts, ridiculous moments in Watch Dogs 2, and Gaycer. It doesn’t get better than this, at least not… Read More...

Our initial fears that this episode wouldn’t be very good due to it being a “slow news day” end up giving way to quite possibly the best episode we’ve ever done. The post Hey Poor Podcast Episode 79: Slow News Day appeared first on Hey Poor Player.

Yes, it’s a news-heavy episode this week, as I “First Against The Wall When The Revolution Comes” Coleman, Anthony “Schick Hydrobot” Spivey, Jonathan “Scrooge” Trussler manage to slog through every single trailer that came out of The Game Awards and PSX.

On this week's thankful episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, I "Darth Icky" Coleman is joined by Bethany "Midnight Brownout" Meadows (and special guest Bethany's noisy dog) to discuss what little games, news, and questions managed to come out despite the Thanksgiving weekend.

Hey Poor Podcast used "tons of content." It's super effective! On this week's extra-long, extra-chunky episode of the Hey Poor Podcast, I "The Poorest Player" Coleman, Anthony "Snorlax" Spivey, and Jay "Finest Memes " Petrequin get together to discuss a variety of topics, by which we mean almost a solid 40 minutes of Pokemon Sun and Moon.
