{{tropelistcreatortropes}}

* [[The Cameo]]:

** [[Phelous]], [[Sad Panda Q and &A|Sad Panda]] and [[Welshy]] appear in the introductory episode of ''MMO Grinder''.

** [[Atop the Fourth Wall|Linkara]] informs [[Chaos D 1]]'''ChaosD1''' needlessly in the ''[[Star Trek Online]]'' review that it's gone free to play.

{{quote| Warning:<br />

I mention [[World of Warcraft]] a lot in this review.<br />

* [[Crossover]]:

** A review of ''La Horde'' With [[Sad Panda Q and A|Sad Panda]], [[Phelous]] and [[Welshy]].

* [[Evil Sounds Deep]]: He does a stereotypical demon voice in the ending of the The Possession: Return of Six review and the beginning of the [[Hellgate :London]] review.

* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: The alpacas in ''Eden Eternal'' are actually "Grass Mud Horses", a Chinese [[Memetic Mutation|Meme]] which circumvents government censorship: Their Chinese name, Cao Ni Ma, sounds like Mandarin for "Fuck your mother". ChaosD1 just says they are a meme, but leaves it for the viewer to discover the punchline on his own.

* [[GIFT]]: The main reason why there is a section about the community in ''MMO Grinder'', although there is quite a variation in the niceness of the communities. [[Chaos D 1]]'''ChaosD1''' also states that sometimes the reputation of a community isn't as bad as exaggerated, as he, for example, had few problems with the infamous [[League of Legends]] community.

* [[Insistent Terminology]]: [[Chaos D 1]]'''ChaosD1''' would like to remind you that [[League of Legends]] is correctly abbreviated as LoL, not LOL or lol. Also, WoW is only the abbreviation for [[World of Warcraft]] and not a [[Leet Lingo]] way of saying "wow".

* [[It's Quiet... Too Quiet]]: Used verbatim in the [[Hellgate :London]] review. He apologizes for it in a pop-up.

** [[Spell My Name with an "S"/Anime|Gattsu]] for [[Jerk with a Heart of Gold|Guts]]

** [[The Simpsons (animation)|Special Edna]] for [[Distressed Damsel in Distress|Casca]]

* [[Now Buy the Merchandise]]: In the beginning of the ''Eden Eternal'' episode, he changes his shirt because the one he was wearing appeared in a previous episode. Conveniently, the new shirt is the official [https://web.archive.org/web/20131104030942/http://www.printfection.com/MMOGrinder MMO Grinder T-shirt]. He [[Lampshadeslampshade]]s this.

* [[Something Completely Different]]: Episode 10 of the ''MMO Grinder'' doesn't feature a MMO, but [[League of Legends]], which is a [[Multiplayer Online Battle Arena]] game. [[Chaos D 1]]'''ChaosD1''' originally thought it was a MMO when he included it in polls and decided to review it anyway when he learned otherwise.

* [[Special Effects Failure]]: He sprouts demon wings in the beginning of the [[Hellgate :London]] review, which he immediately takes off again since they are intentionally silly looking. In [[The Stinger]], the wings don't even deploy properly on the first try.

* [[The Stinger]]:

** In the [[Hellgate :London]] review, he is distraught that apparently [[League of Legends]] will win the poll. Also, it is shown that when he first tried to deploy the demon wings, they didn't work properly.

** In the [[Rusty Hearts]] review, he's watching the character Angela walking while he wears a pair of 3D glasses, until the Chris Hansen pop-up appears, implying Angela is underage.
