Second Life is a strange and often beautiful place.
This week on the Hey Poor Podcast, Jay “Flapjack Nickelsack” Petrequin, Caleb “Shortstack Paddywhack” Turner, Jonathan “Bad Back Heart Attack” Trussler, and Adam “The Bassist from Nickelback” Foster come together to talk about the announcement of Bioshock: The Collection, debate about which trip to sea or sky comes out lasting the best, hold a miniature funeral for Mighty No 9, talk about old games with new sequels, and get led down a rabbit hold of Second Life mistakes well made. Jay makes political jokes. Caleb plays with Legos. Jonathan drives the entire UK into the antarctic. Adam comes in late.
Talking points, fresh from farm to table: Bioshock: The Collection, Mighty No 9, Bloodstained, A Hat in Time, Kickstarter as a whole, Shenmue 3, Full Mojo Rampage, Uncharted 4, Batman: Arkham Knight, Adam West-era Batman, Lego Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Second Life, Hyperdevotion Noire: Goddess Black Heart, mods gone horribly wrong, and remasters gone utterly “meh.”
Music for this episode includes tracks from Bioshock Infinite, Mighty No 9, and Jesper Kyd.
