Line 7:
A [[Video Review Show]] with surprisingly high production values, Johnny likes to overanalyze [[Video Games]], to the point of each episode averaging at about 15 minutes, despite him talking in [[Motor Mouth|nigh-incomprehensible speeds]].
The [[In
Despite this, he always wraps up with a multiple choice verdict, guessing at the type of person you’d have to be in order to buy and enjoy the game and, for multiplatform games, he even compares the different versions against each other.
Line 49:
* [[Face Palm]]: Does this when Samus is reduced to a little girl when fighting Ridley in [[Metroid Other M]], despite having faced him numerous times before.
* [[Fan Service]]: Subverted when the [[Wii Fit|Wii Fit Girl]] parody in the [[Punch Out]] video cuts right before we find out if Maria got back. This may also count as a [[Brick Joke]] & [[Ironic Echo]], as these “X minutes later” cuts were beneficial to the viewer when they first appeared on the [[Metal Gear Solid 4|MGS4]] episodes.
* [[For Science!]]: Opens up the [[Portal 2 (Video Game)|Portal 2]] review with this.
* [[Four Point Scale]]: Averted in that he doesn’t score the games, but offers a “multiple-choice recommendation”.
* [[Freeze Frame Bonus]] : Some of the images flash by too quick, and the in-game subtitles are usually impossible to read without pausing.
Line 68:
* [[Previously On]]: Does one in the style of [[Battlestar Galactica]] for [[Mass Effect]].
* [[Recycled in Space]]: In [[Mass Effect 2]], he brings up [[Bio Ware]]’s comment that Shepard is [[Twenty Four|Jack Bauer]] IN SPACE!
* [[Right

* [[Running Gag]]: Mentioning power-point presentations throughout the [[Metal Gear Solid 4|MGS4]] review.
* [[Shout Out]]: When he has an issue with a game, he usually points to earlier games that dealt with it better.
Line 77:
** Parodied in the [[Mass Effect 2]] [[The Stinger|stinger]].
* [[Story to Gameplay Ratio]]: He has played [[Metal Gear Solid 4|MGS4]], so it’s no surprise this comes up.
* [[Strange Minds Think Alike]]: He claims this is the reason he might sometimes do a joke [[
* [[Suspiciously Specific Denial]]: At the end of each part of the [[Metal Gear Solid 4|MGS4]] review, there is a disclaimer citing the “Reviewers I tried not to rip-off”. Namely [[James Rolfe]], [[Noah Antwiler]] and [[Doug Walker]].
* [[Take That]]: Done ocassionally, the [[Portal 2 (Video Game)|Portal 2]] review has quite a few on [[First
* [[That's What She Said]]: Prevalent in the [[Dance Central]] review.
* [[Trademark Favorite Food]]:
{{quote| '''Johnny:''' Chocolate: My [[Achilles Heel|only weakness]].}}
* [[What Could Possibly Go Wrong?]]: Apparently loves saying these [[Exact Words]] in a sarcastic tone, as seen in the [[Mass Effect 2]] and [[Back to The Future|Back to the Future: The Game]] reviews.
* [[What the Hell Is That Accent?]]: Good luck placing Johnny’s accent.
* [[You Fight Like a Cow]]: Appropriately, in the [[The Secret of Monkey Island|Monkey Island: Special Edition]] review.
