** For [[Tales of Symphonia]], they asked viewers to suggest drinking words for them to use. This backfired spectacularly when someone suggested "world".

** For [[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|Golden Eye 1997]], they asked for challenges to perform during gameplay, which they then picked out of a hat.

* [[Base Breaker]]: The T40's new style of pre-recorded commentary making it's début in the Final Fantasy X-2 LP. The common consensus currently seems to be slanted on the ''Hate'' side of the scale however.

** It got so bad that {{spoiler|they ''started over'' with the old format. And Marvelis [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here|bailed out]], so it's even more like the original FFX run.}}

** For [[Fallout: New Vegas]], none of the Forties like Cass, due to her not being interesting to them. Benson also hates Boone, and calls for his death more than once.

* [[Critical Existence Failure]]: The end of the life of their copy of Final Fantasy X-2 after they all unanimously agreed it was one of the worst games they had ever done a Let's Play of.

** The friggin' X-button in ''Final Fantasy X-2''...

* [[Deus Ex Machina]]: The ending of the Mario Party 5 LP.

* [[Gag Sub]]: Done [http://www.tippingforties.com/videos.aspx?key=251 here] with ''[[Kamen Rider Black RX]]'' for a competition (they tied for first). Features [[Special Guest]] Minifoo.

* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: Ryan likes to sneak in references, like [[Mystery Science Theater 3000|ancient dentistry]] and [[Resident Evil|Jill sandwiches]], to see if he can get them past Benson, who hates those.

** Also one of the things that has some [[Something Awful|Goons]] to complaining that the [[Freelance Astronauts]] have already LP'd the game in much the same fashion. Seeing as it was [[Freelance Astronauts|Maxwell Adams]] himself who asked them to LP the game, it seems some people [[Misaimed Fandom|just want something to complain about]].

* [[Hard-Drinking Tropes]]: And how.

* [[Only Known by Their Nickname]]: While most of the gang has taken to going by their real names, Michael still tends to be called bandunk.

* [[Overly Long Gag]]: By the end of the Tales Of Symphonia LP, everyone except bandunk would start groaning and trying to make Benson stop when he did Genis and Noishe impressions.

* [[Robot Girl]]: The Forties turned [[Tales of Symphonia|Presea]] into this, even though she's just an [[Emotionless Girl]] in canon.

* [[Self-Imposed Challenge]]: What the [[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|Golden Eye 1997]] LP is based around. At the start of every mission they would impose a [[Audience Participation|fan-submitted restriction]] on the player.

** [http://www.tippingforties.com/project.aspx?key=19 Here], too. They recorded a whole week of [[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|Golden Eye 1997]] without any game audio, so they rerecorded and released the audioless ones as [[Missing Episode|Lost Episodes]].

** During episode 19 of Shenmue, the Forties noticed and commented on a problem with the controller... and then their save file got corrupted. Kuvo bought another controller and spent 6 hours playing through the entire game up to the point where it happened to avoid [[Schedule Slip]].

** During Final Fantasy X-2, Kuvo's beaten-up [[PlayStation 2]] would crash the game every time they got a game over.

* [[Xanatos Speed Chess]]: [http://tippingforties.com/Videos.aspx?key=422 Bandunk decides to play the game his own way.]
