Trophy Whores » Proven Gamer

Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about.  Stack it up!  Join Matt, Alex and Veronica as they discuss, among other things, The Plucky Squire, Astro Bot, Hands of Fate 2, and Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree.  What’s more, we answer listener questions and name games that deserve nominations for The Game Awards 2025 Game of the Year.  That time again?  Yep!  We’ve blown through another year — without catching our breath.  As winter begins to bear down, and people ravenously mock Geoff Keighley, we, at the very least, are excited to see The Game Awards announcements and reveals that Keighley has up his sleeve(s).

We hit the high notes, and we hit the low notes, but we’ll always bring the banter.  What are you waiting for? Dive in!

As always, the opinions fly fast and heavy! Look out for this super-sized show, as the seemingly smallest conversation veers off into a multiverse of chit-chat. Sounds cool, huh? That’s the fancy way of saying “derailment.” And there’s plenty of that to go around! Let’s dance, Heroes of the XMB!

We are happy and proud to share that Proven Gamer has partnered with the Humble Bundle! The Humble Bundle is a fantastic initiative and program that allows games to score a litany of games on the cheap — all while making charitable donations to various groups and organizations. You can click here for the details on Proven Gamer’s Humble Bundle partnership.

In a bit of big news that would make the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles proud, iHeartRadio, Pandora and Spotify host episodes of Trophy Whores.

The Trophy Whores work hard to put out a quality weekly show, but they owe so much love to their listeners, who keep the show strong and growing.

Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about.  Stack it up!  Join Tricky, Alex, Yield and Matt as they discuss, among other things, Alan Wake 2, Tunic, and MultiVersus.  What’s more, we delve into evidence that scalpers might be taking a loss on the PlayStation 5 Pro.  Based on eBay listings, the new model of the PS5, not including the 30th anniversary edition, is often listed below MSRP.  While it’s good to see scalpers get some comeuppance, some folks are still trying to sell it for far above MSRP; however, scalpers might find it hard to sell at an inflated price, with the console still available in stores.

Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about.  Stack it up!  Join Tricky, Alex, Yield and Matt as they discuss, among other things, Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed, NHL 24, Alan Wake 2, Astro Bot, and Assassin’s Creed Shadows.  What’s more, Matt delves into the Monster Hunter Wilds beta.  If you have questions, then Matt, as a certified monster slayer, has answers.  What better time to jump into Capcom’s Monster Hunter?  Matt loves the series, and his rabid enthusiasm can stir even the coldest heart.

Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about.  Stack it up!  Join Tricky, Alex, Matt and Jeremy as they discuss, among other things, Silent Hill 2, Still Wakes the Deep, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed, and Marvel’s Spider-Man 2.  What’s more, we delve into the curious case of Cloud Imperium Games’ Star Citizen.  During the past 12 years, Cloud Imperium Games have spent more than $600 million to build the game, while also raising nearly $800 million for the project.  CIG have set a 2026 release date; however, that doesn’t excuse the lengthy and troubled development cycle — on top of the preposterous funding that they have needed to build and polish the game.

Whoa, Shuhei! We’ve got a lot to talk about.  Stack it up!  Join Tricky, Alex, Matt and Jeremy as they discuss, among other things, Still Wakes the Deep, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, Ghostbusters Spirits Unleashed, Dino Crisis, and Metal Gear Solid Delta.  What’s more, Sony have removed Hotline Miami 2 from the PlayStation Network in Australia.  Sony erroneously released the game, which was unrated in Australia, via the PlayStation Plus game catalog.  If the Australian government does not classify a game, according to age appropriateness, then it can’t be sold to consumers (in the Australian market).  We’re not here to summon the Headless Horseman, but someone probably caught the ax for that gaffe.
