{{creatortropes}}
* [[Berserk Button]]:
** His whole [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlxuDPzWZRw Super Mario Bros. 2 (The Lost Levels)] review, to the point where it had to be censored.
** His [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTeNnP_JUJU&feature=related Second Big Rigs Review].
Line 13:
* [[Bias Steamroller]]: He admits that he favors Sonic more than Mario, hence giving the Mario games lower scores.
* [[Born Lucky]]: In the review of [[Super Mario Bros the Lost Levels]], Johnny somehow kills an enemy in a small corridor and clipped through a Hammer Bros. hammer.
* [[Continuity Lock Out]]: There's a [[Story Arc|small plot]] that started from the very first review Johnny uploaded, [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006
* [[Evil Laugh]]: What he did [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omOaTnRmP0c after beating Clement's record].
** Since then [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=axmllPapD_c&feature=watch_response it's] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N0Nfside4BU&feature=watch_response becoming] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUz9vd4H6UY a] meme of sorts.
* [[Fan Boy]]: It should be clear Johnny (and to a lesser extent, Elliot) is a fan of Sonic games, though not a [[Tropes Are Not Bad|gullible, biased one]].
* [[First Installment Weirdness]]: Johnny's style has notably improved between the time he started compared to now, but that's a given considering that time usually improves a person.
* [[Old Shame]]: What Johnny feels about his earliest videos and Let's Plays, hoping to redo a couple of them in time.
* [[Running Gag]]: In his Metroid Reviews (and once in his Super Mario Bros. 3 and Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1 reviews), whenever he mentions the Screw Attack powerup, a voice echoes the word "Screw Attack!"
* [[Story Arc]]: One involving a strange Sonic hat that warps the mind of whoever wears it to commit horrible misdeeds, such as... playing Sonic R.
* [[Take That]]: In his Sonic Generations review, when talking about the 30 Second Challenge Leaderboards, he showed the top three for Classic City Escape, with him at the top & [[
** Although Clement beat the record soon after.
** Which led to Johnny beating Clement's new record, complete with a small [["The Reason You Suck" Speech|Reason You Suck Speech]] before signing off.
Line 27:
{{tropelist|His Let's Plays provides examples of the following}}
* [[And Now for Someone Completely Different]]: Matthew has gone by many names, such as Turd Ferguson, Slim Shady, and [[The Offspring|Pretty Fly for a White Guy]]. Admittedly, MMetelli is a lame name for an LPer.
** His Sonic '06 LP is done differently from the rest, being done by himself and in post-commentary.
* [[Angrish]]: Johnny's prone to this whenever epic failure repeats itself more than once.
* [[Attention Deficit]]...OohShiny: Aside from Matthew having a clinical diagnosis of ADHD, he slams Rebecca Chambers for staring at a door while Chris is dying. Granted, it's a load screen taking longer than it should, but the joke was still valid.
Line 39:
* [[Cluster F-Bomb]]: Matthew. BIG TIME. To put it bluntly, if Matthew goes three sentences without cursing something out, Johnny thinks something is wrong with him.
** Whenever Johnny encounters a Slicer in his Sonic the Hedgehog 2 LP.
** What happens when Silver escapes the invisible wall in the [[Sonic the Hedgehog (2006
* [[Crack Pairing]]: Any of the three with Death whenever they're playing badly at a game.
* [[Curse]]: This seems to happen whenever Matt collaborates on a project with him. [[Donkey Kong Country]], if Matt is to be believed, took over nine tries to complete.
** According to the wall comments by Johnny and Matthew, Sonic 2006 has also suffered from this. Allegedly, there has been multiple failures either by bad commentary or through technical mistakes. It's now at the point where Johnny has agreed to play it by himself simply because Elliot is fed up with the game, and Matthew has run out of things to say about it.
* [[Epic Fail]]: Know anybody else under the age of 75 who got a game over in World 1-1 in Super Mario Bros?
** Johnny also died against the first [[Sonic 3 and Knuckles|Mecha Sonic boss]], who is exactly the same as the first Sonic the Hedgehog boss.
* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: It's not unusual for any one of the three to snark once in a while, though Matt is the most adept at it.
* [[Extreme Omnisexual]]: Matt's a real trooper when it comes to Kamek. Then again, 8 castles and a frustrated Libido is going to inhibit judgment.
** Comes back in Lost Levels were he says after World 5 he'd settle for Toad.
** add Enyuu from Genma Onimusha oh and did we mention Enyuu's a sword
* [[Hypocritical Humor]]: During the Resident Evil (original) playthrough, Elliot slips vocally, suggesting Rebecca Chambers has a degree in Ph.D's, with the other two teasing him as a result. In the first part of said playthrough, Matthew said the same thing and nobody caught it.
* [[Incredibly Lame Pun]]:
Line 62:
* [[Series Hiatus]]: Both channels have been on break. His main channel because of needing to relax from the "month of..." series whereas his Let's Play channel was on break because of technical issues and the crew needing to handle matters elsewhere (Johnny with his animations, Matthew with his academic life, and Elliot with his band).
* [[Shout-Out]]: Many of their jokes are references to something or other. For example, the pun above is an actual combo from Mortal Kombat: Deception for Liu Kang.
* [[Sir Swearsalot]]: Championed by Matthew, almost completely averted by Elliot.
* [[The Many Deaths of You]]: Elliot + Crash Bandicoot 3 = Failure.
** Also done with [[Shadowgate]], as Johnny kept a death count of all the deaths.
