* ''Sage Reviews'', in which he covers recent video games in a traditional analytical review style (ie, to help viewers decide whether or not to purchase them) rather than purely for entertainment. |

Bennett also makes regular cameos in other TGWTG personalities' videos, where he portrays himself with a sadistic persona, thanks to an early crossover with ''[[Ask That Guy With The Glasses]]''. He does an annual anime review crossover with [[The Spoony Experiment|the Spoony One]] (which led to the creation of ''Anime Abandon'') and makes frequent appearances on ''[[JesuOtaku|The JesuOtaku Anime Review]]'', where he subjects her to truly horrendous softcore garbage. |

* [[Accentuate the Negative]]: 90% of his game reviews are like this (it seems like the only triple-A FPS title he genuinely liked over the past few years were ''[[Killzone]] 3'' and ''[[Resistance]] 3'', two titles he really gushes over, while cross-platform and Xbox titles tend to get much more critical treatment). Unlike [[Zero Punctuation|Yahtzee]] or Bennett's own Anime Abandon reviews, the negativity is played completely straight instead of done in a bombastic, jokey manner, which has led detractors to complain it comes across as grouchy, nitpicky, and [[Feigning Intelligence]]. |
