Revision as of 22:48, 10 April 2017
videogamedunkey is a gaming comedy channel on YouTube where an American guy with a foul mouth and a bad temper plays popular, nostalgic and obscure video games. His content includes heavily edited playthroughs filled with with MSTs, satirical reviews and rants.
Dunkey (real name: Jason Gastrow) was first known as a League of Legends player. He officially stopped playing the game in September 12, 2015. [1]
- The Abridged Series: His recap series of the main Halo games, rife with references and jokes.
- Also his riff on Lego Star Wars.
- Accentuate the Negative
- Actor Allusion: In THE JONTRON RANT, footage of JonTron punching a guy dressed as the Kool-Aid Man is featured to make Jon look like a violent psycho (Played for Laughs, obviously). That guy is Ethan Klein of h3h3 Productions, who was the target of the rant Dunkey was satirizing.
- Anticlimax: In Top 100 Games, for the #1 spot, Dunkey chooses Zelda II: The Adventure of Link off a Wikipedia page. It's as lazy as it sounds.
- Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: In Serious Girl Gamers, Dunkey dissects the clips shown in the League of Legends montage:
Caption 1: Clip of Janna missing a tornado |
- Artificial Stupidity:
- In Far Cry, Dunkey laughed at the mooks getting killed by barrels without noticing them rolling on the slope.
- In MGSV : Gun Eater, Dunkey drives a truck on a road with mooks:
Dunkey: (as the mooks) It- It's a truck! Quick, jump in front of it! |
- Berserk Button: Don't say to Dunkey he has anger issues.
- Big No: A Running Gag. Dunkey is very explosive with his outcries.
- Black Comedy: The Funniest Games section of Best of 2012 : Dunk Awards features Dunkey laughing at people dying in violent games (Prototype 2, Twisted Metal, "Barkness 2" and Resident Evil 6, the winner).
- Blatant Lies: Played for Laughs. Dunkey has the habit of lying through his teeth in his videos.
- For example, That "League of Legends 2" video? It's just an Adventure Time MOBA.
- Call Back: His History of Gaming video has "HERE COMES THE MONEEEY", a gag that appeared one time in his Game Dev Tycoon video.
- Best of 2012 : Dunk Awards features a Payne Mix of Petters on the Low's second verse.
- Calling Your Attacks: In one of his Hitman videos:
"This move I have is really cool, but DUNKEY ROLL but it's really, I have to say it really loud whenever I do it, so it's kind of risky doing it DUNKEY ROLL!" |
- Catch Phrase: "Not even close, babyyyyyy"
- "Uh oh..."
- "Seeya!"
- "I'll have the spaghetti 'a meatballs."
- "Whoops! An accident!"
- "...into the ocean!"
- "YOU BITCH!"
- "You're going to jail.."
- Combat Commentator: In TTT: Wrestlemania, Dunkey plays the role of a wrestling commentator to savage crowbar fights.
- He takes part in the last fight... and loses.
- Cutaway Gag: In Playstation Allstars, Dunkey, after numerous complaints about the multiplayer ("Who the FUCK plays timed mode?!") says that the online play is at least better than Super Smash Bros Brawl. It then cuts to Dunkey simulating the online latency on the Wii:
(In the online training area.) |
- Deadpan Snarker
- Description Cut: A Running Gag in Dunkuza 3. Dunkey acts like the lead, who is mourning a dead friend ("I'll avenge you!"). Cut to the lead doing completely unrelated mini-games and Dunkey reacting to the gameplay.
- In Best Video Game Music, when criticizing a Street Fighter rap song:
Dunkey: (as a girl gamer) Like, if anyone ever beats us, we just fuckin' shoot 'em. |
- Documentary of Lies: Played for Laughs. THE JONTRON RANT is a masterful satire of Leafy's rant to h3h3, cherrypicking footage to make JonTron look like a psychopathic hating hypocrite.
- Dramatic Reading: Click is Dunkey reading reviews of the film on Amazon.
- Early Installment Weirdness: Compared to his The Old Republic playthrough and his 2011 review of L.A. Noire, with the monotone voice and straightforward content, Dunkey has really grown as a comedian and an editor, as shown in Youtubers and Microsoft Sucks.
- CSS Gungamin' was made in 2010 and it shows, especially with that 360p quality.
- Enforced Plug: Parodied in Promotional Campaign. Dunkey hawks his YouTube channel in Counter-Strike Source, annoying the other players, and trash-talks those who insult him and his channel. He eventually gets kicked out for "advertising."
- And then, in another match:
Dunkey: Now, after getting stabbed in the back, that reminds me: go to youtube.com/videogamedunkey |
- Dunkey with an angry gamer:
"You shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up. Now you shut the fuck up. You shut the fuck up. You shut your fucking mouth, you bitch. Fuck you! Suck my dick! Just calm the fuck down! It's just you and me! So calm the fuck down, okay? And go to youtube.com/videogamedunkey!" |
- Filk Song/Stylistic Suck: Played for laughs in LOTR MOBA. Dunkey sings with layered voices a track from Howard Shore's Lord of the Rings score with vulgar lyrics.
- Funny Animal: His avatar is an anthropomorphized donkey.
- Fun with Subtitles/Freeze-Frame Bonus: In the subtitles for THE JONTRON RANT, sounds are labeled, including *EERIE SOUND*, *LOUD THROW*... and *KOOL-AID PUKE*.
- Game of the Year Edition: Discussed for laughs in Game of the Year, where Dunkey looks at underwhelming games with the title and compares them to way more ambitious games. As he asks, isn't there supposed to be one game of the year?
- Two Worlds has been published as Game of the Year in 2007, a shoddy mess compared to outstanding games released the same year (Super Mario Galaxy, Call of Duty 4, Bioshock, Portal, etc.)
- Gamer Chick/Does Not Like Men: Parodied in Serious Girl Gamers. Dunkey makes the girls speak with a Valley Girl accent.
- Griefer/Troll: Dunkey is well-known for playing with players' minds and just fooling around in online games.
- In H1Z1:
Dunkey: (Pointing a gun to a player) Gimme your pants. |
- In CS:GO High ELO MLG Tournament Gameplay, Dunkey saying "Yee haw!" and mowing down teammates with his Negev light machine gun.
Dunkey: (as he kills his teammates) You guys should get rid of this teamkiller. Jester, he just fucking shot me in the head. |
- Homage: Green Eggs and Jam is a parody song remix of the famous Dr. Seuss story, getting into weird and vulgar territory.
- Internet Backdraft/Mood Whiplash: Dunkey, in Microsoft Sucks tells the time when he got Xbox Live at 12 years old, played Return to Castle Wolfenstein and greeted the players: "Hey guys! Let's go win the game, dude!" And then angry fat gamers started heavily insulting him (while intense rock music is playing). His reaction?
"This is amazing." |
- Large Ham: Dunkey when's he's wacky or angry.
- In Youtubers, he mixes many gaming YouTubers' intros to make a cacophonous mess. Then Jacksepticeye pops up and can be heard, even amidst all the other players, as noted by Dunkey.
- The Last of These Is Not Like the Others: In Microsoft Sucks, Dunkey mentions Xbox Live, the Red Ring of Death, Windows 8 (which is barely mentioned), Games for Windows Live... and the purchase of 13 million $ worth of sand as arguments that Microsoft is made of ants.
- Magical Native American: Parodied in Batman Beyond : Return of Green Goblin:
"White people do not know how to work horses. They have become weak, like the water buffalo; weak from their lives of luxury." |
- Milestone Celebration: In the early days, Dunkey had a tendency to make a special video every 10k or 100k subscribers. For example, his 800k subs video of Rust.
- No Indoor Voice
- Never Trust a Trailer: In Die, fight scenes from trailers for big budget games (Diablo 3, WoW, StarCraft II) are shown. Cut to Dunkey playing the games in question, with very underwhelming combat, and him repeating "Die" or on-the-spot banter.
- Overly Long Gag: Nico My Caasin is Here is a minute of Dunkey (for the most part) repeating the title as Roman, Nico and "Mammary" to each other.
Dunkey: Number Eight! |
- Player Versus Player: Discussed in Skunk Souls, when Dunkey encounters a dark spirit:
"So this is actually a human player. You can just go into other people's game and fuck them up. 'Cause the game doesn't fuck you enough, it lets other people come in and fuck you up." |
- Pop Cultural Osmosis Failure: In Dos X: Rise of Robocop, Dunkey witnesses a conversation between a guy who remembers RoboCop and another guy who doesn't get it. Dunkey then barges in:
"I gotta tell em! It's Robocop, it's Robocop, the movie's Robocop." |
- Reference Overdosed
- Refuge in Audacity: The only reason Dunkey gets away with his jokes.
- Rule of Funny: In GTA Online:
"Suspect has left the vehicle, I will pursue him in my yellow Bumblebee car and run him over, because that's funny." |
- Running Gag:
- Putting Super Mario Bros 2 as #1 in yearly video game lists (since the Best of 2011 list).
- In Sleepy Dogs, a riff on Sleeping Dogs, "Another day, another dolla'!" and him beating the shit out of conversing women in extreme anger.
- In Game Dev Tycoon: "I'm a millionaire! I'm a fuckin' millionaire!"
- "It's a masterpiece! I'm a genius!"
- A bunch of critically acclaimed games he reviews (ones he has no problems with) end up getting a 0 out of 5.
- Serial Escalation: Captcha is a satire on its security measures, as Dunkey experiences various absurd, complex and infuriating captchas to avert a nuclear crisis, all with a timer. It goes as far as making him play Dark Souls and paint a pixel-perfect recreation of the Mona Lisa with the toolset of MS Paint (He half-asses it and calls it a masterpiece. It works.)

- In Halo : Recap Evolved: "Hey I'm Dunk, I'm Not-So-Dunk, and we're the Game Dunks!"

- "(To a pizza box computer) Xbox On. Pull up Dominos' website."

- (While clicking a talking sheep) "Ooh! I know this. This is StarCraft." (sheep explodes) Oh God, no!-"
- In Sleepy Dogs:
- Dunkey referring to the game as Shenmue 3.

- In Postal 2 : Coleman's Reign:

- In Dishonored (Mission 1) : Perfect Run, he names the first mission "spooky Luigi's Mansion".
- In Skunk Souls, Dunkey sees walking mushrooms:
- "Mushrooms? What is this, Maple Story baby ass game?"
- (Dunkey backstabs a mushroom)
- "Oohh. You ain't gonna see that in Maple Story."
- Dunkey, reminded of a snake player, gets knocked off a platform and falls to his death:
- "God damn it. I am fed up with these snakes!
- (Shows a picture of Samuel L. Jackson)
- "Denzel Washington."
- "Is that you, snake? I have the high ground!"
- When Dunkey sees Anor Londo (with the castle):
- In Green Eggs and Ham, a parody Homage to the Dr. Seuss book, when the unnamed character blasts Sam-I-Am and a mouse with the bazooka, the banner "You have Slain an enemy!" pops up.

"Jesus Christ, this guy fucking dissected the entire movie of Click. This is like a professional film thesis.. on Click." |
- What If: In Game Dev Tycoon, Dunkey, dissatisfied with the lackluster commercial performance of his games, makes the closest thing to Call of Duty in-game and names it that. It becomes a critical failure.
- ↑ Causes include getting a temp ban from the game due to "toxic behavior" (shit-talking), something he disagrees with by principle, and being fed up with his lack of enjoyment in the game.
