(undid revision 708375; This kind of speculation generally belongs in the forum.)
(Incorrect. Firstly, it's THE Heavy (a la THE Cheat); secondly, it's short for the "Heavy Weapons Guy", and has been since QWTF; Meet the Heavy even confirms this. Reverting both changes.)

A different kind of poker night.

Poker Night at the Inventory is an upcoming game by Telltale Games that features Strong Bad, Max (from Sam & Max: Freelance Police), Tycho (from Penny Arcade), and the Heavy Weapons Guy (from Team Fortress 2). Telltale promises that it will feature "a new style of poker", presumably in a similar manner to that in the company's other card game, Telltale Texas Hold 'Em. One confirmed feature is that characters eventually bet their possessions in the game, such as the Heavy's minigun, Sasha. Early screenshots show it taking place in a library or similar location. The in-game models are the same as used in their respective games, so Strong Bad stands out against the more realistically shaded characters. It is set to be released in fall 2010.

Trivia

  • This is the first time a Homestar Runner character has been in a game with other video game characters.
  • Uncensored Swears will be in the game, as seen with Tycho's promotional artwork. This would be a first for the family-friendly Homestar Runner cartoon as well.
