During their E3 2017 showcase, Sony Interactive Entertainment seemed to have traded long-winded monologues for a nearly constant stream of game videos. Truth be told, Sony Interactive Entertainment President and CEO Shawn Layden didn’t have much to say during the showcase. People seem split in their opinions. Alex liked the press conference, while Mark and…
This week, we share our predictions for the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2017. As every year, the competition is fierce. Alex and Mark are each looking to claim his first victory, while Tricky and Yield look to repeat previous wins. Yield has won twice; Tricky won last year. While everyone is confident that he has the…
This week Alex hosts, which means that you can expect brilliant segues and at least one BioShock reference. With Mark and Stephen helping to navigate the latest video game news, we’ve got you covered on all the facts and stories that you need to know. For instance, did you know that Sony Computer Entertainment needs…
We don’t dislike the New York Rangers; however, Tricky talks a lot of trash, so when his team takes a nosedive in the playoffs, you know that he will catch hell. Guest host Stephen, also a Rangers fan, weathers the storm as best he can, but, like being tossed around in an F5 tornado, it’s…
We’re still feeling the effects of Troy’s absence. The DesTroyer of Insipid Arguments, who can lawyer you faster than Reggie Fils-Aime can smirk, has decided to leave Trophy Whores in light of backlash from a vocal minority of listeners. We thought that everyone liked Zelda, Donkey Kong, Captain Falcon and Little Mac. We miss you,…
After much deliberation, I, the Troyce of Reason and desTroyer of insipid arguments, vacate my seat on Trophy Whores. In recent weeks, a vocal minority has complained that my contributions vary from the core content of the show, and I feel that this unwanted discussion has irked listeners and sullied the unquestionable reputation of the…
With episode 300 in the books, we return to our normally scheduled shenanigans. As always, we warn you that silliness and sarcasm abound. We assume that’s what you’re here for. Don’t let anyone tell you not to end a sentence in a preposition. As we inch closer to summer, when the pool of noteworthy games…

We’ve certainly come a long way. Through all of the years, episodes and rotating seats, not to mention the bickering and friendly ribbing, the Trophy Whores have made it to episode 300. It’s a momentous occasion, and we’ve got reason to celebrate! First and foremost, we thank everyone who has helped push us here —…
No Alex! No witty summary. Tricky, Troy, Yield, and Mark talk nonsense for about an hour. Enjoy In a bit of big, big news, Trophy Whores is on iHeartRadio, which greatly expands the show’s footprint and reach. It’s a tremendous honor for the show to be part of iHeartRadio’s massive and respected community, and Proven…
Here we are again. Like Alex has said, the Trophy Whores Fireside Chats might have to become a series. After overwhelmingly positive feedback from the first show, Alex and Tricky sit down again by the fireside and shoot the breeze in an informal chat. We’re still putting together the best possible episode 300; however, we…
This week the Trophy Whores pay homage to Franklin Delano Roosevelt, former president of the United States of America. In lieu of episode 300, which still needs time to bake in the oven, the guys opt to record a freewheeling show, which features Tricky and Troy’s tales from the PAXlands, as well as a meaty,…
While Tricky and Troy are cruising the show floor at PAX East 2017, the triumphant trophy-touting trio of Mark, Alex and Yield discuss the biggest PlayStation news to emanate from Boston. Although the original Penny Arcade Expo, PAX Prime, has spawned annual sister shows, and dropped its “Prime” moniker, seemingly lessening the impact of each…
Last Tuesday, Sony Computer Entertainment shared a gem with the gaming world, and we’re feeling the aftershocks. Yes, we’re in the midst of Horizon Zero Dawn release week, and you know that the Trophy Whores are talking miles about Guerilla Games new open-world action game. The opinions differ in certain areas, but, unsurprisingly, the guys…
Horizon: Zero Dawn has arrived. Finally. After much hype and press, we can blast through Guerilla Games’ latest creation, in which giant machines roam a lush world where nature thrives and humans live primitive lives. You need to aim well, gamer. We’ve got a nasty fight on our hands. And Alex can’t be happier. “Now, bring…
The Trophy Whores are barreling toward episode 300 like an 18-wheeler on an icy mountain road. They can’t be stopped. They won’t be stopped! To 300 — and beyond! As we move through winter, the news is picking up. There’s much to talk about this week, and the Trophy Whores rip through headlines like a…

The game, which will be developed by Crystal Dynamics, is part of a larger collaboration with Marvel Entertainment that entails multiple games. Given…
World Wrestling Entertainment is on the Road to Wrestlemania, but at Proven Gamer, we’re on the road to Trophy Whores 300. It’s hard to believe that an independently owned podcast could survive (and thrive!) for 300 episodes, but we know that the best days are ahead. We’re glad that you’re along for the ride! Shots…
