* UsefulNotes/NeoGeo

* OverlyLongTitle: Top Ten Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Boss Monsters... yeah.

* AdaptationalHeroism: [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Dio Brando]] is usually an unabashedly really evil villain. In the hands of Quarter Guy, he becomes the guy who [[KickTheSonOfABitch drops steamrollers on other really evil/hateable characters]] for RunningGag.

* TalkingToHimself: Literally does this at the beginning of the #1 segment of Top Ten Things I HATE In Video Games.

Adam Lutz (a.k.a., The Quarter Guy) is an American Website/YouTube Producer who makes {{Video Game}}s related [[TopTenList countdowns]], much similar to Creator/JoshScorcher or Creator/TheAutarch, but to keep things diverse, he does a mini series called 'Clash of Q', video game reviews, and post vlogs (called "My 25 Cents Worth") regularly of current events, updates on his projects, and Q&A. He even did a let's boss play for ''VideoGame/SuperCastlevaniaIV'' at one point, and took down six beasts in [[VideoGame/MonsterHunter Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate]] during Thanksgiving of 2013. The most recent ones is a series of streaming videos, in which he plays ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' with his friends, titled "League of LOL"

** He quotes the memetic [[WesternAnimation/{{Encanto}} "We Don't Talk About Bruno"]] song in his Top Ten Worst Cases of First Game Syndrome List when revealing the Number 1 candidate: VideoGame/StreetFighter1.

* [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1 Xenoblade Chronicles]]
* [[VideoGame/{{MegaManXCommandMission}} Mega Man X Command Mission]]
%% VideoGame/MegaManX7 is planned, but suspended due to lack of funding.

** ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaLordsOfShadow'' sub-series. Adam is a fan of the classic timeline and very much dislikes the direction of this new reboot. He has once used the Dio RunningGag to trample on Gabriel Belmont, and the end of his Top 10 Vampires in Video Games, after putting [[spoiler:[[VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight Alucard]]]] at the top of the list, he proceeds to rant about [[spoiler:how Alucard in that timeline is instead Trevor Belmont.]]
** Hazama/Yuuki Terumi. Almost every time he's mentioned, he either gets mad or Dio drops a steamroller on him. He made a cameo in Creator/TheGreenScorpion's countdown for video game cats because Terumi was mentioned, just to yell his name.

* SoBadItsGood: InUniverse. Actual opinion of his about the [[VideoGame/MegamanX4 "WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOOOOORRRR!?!?!?"]] scene, even if it involved his absolute favorite, Zero, and his favorite installment of the X series, regardless of how others rank the game's voice acting as really bad (and as noted in his Top 10 Megaman games, he'll ''gladly'' join in poking fun on how 'bad' it is). He's heard worse. Like [=X7=]'s...

* NiceHat: QG wears a Website/ScrewAttack hat backwards during almost all of his videos.
** He swapped it for a Mario hat during his Double Top 5 Bowser Battles.

** Referred to {{Website/Tumblr}}'s [[PoliticalCorrectnessGoneMad social justice warriors]] as social justice '''''wankers''''' in the first entry of Top 30 VG Characters.

* [[VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}} Xenoblade Chronicles]]

* CatchPhrase: Several. He begins every "My 25 Cents Worth" with the quote at the top, and every countdown with "it's game time!"

** By extension, three particular bosses from ''X7'': [[spoiler:Ride Boarski, Tornado Tonion and Flame Hyenard.]]

** The cancellation of MegamanLegends3 also prompts him to take cue on [[WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic Nostalgia Critic]]'s [[PrecisionFStrike EFF]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DgFWOvgL90 YOU!!]]

* SugarWiki/SuperlativeDubbing: InUniverse. Also has some of this opinion flat out stated. While he does appreciate some Japanese voices, such as when it comes to ''Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure'', he has some series that he prefers on dub, such as ''VideoGame/BlazBlue''. He constantly cites that he ''loves'' Creator/PatrickSeitz' performance as Ragna the Bloodedge better, in spite his Japanese voice being provided by Creator/TomokazuSugita (who actually did [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventure Joseph Joestar]], who Adam also immensely enjoyed in Japanese)

-->''[[RunningGag *The troper writing this article is then crushed by a Steamroller*]]'' '''[[VideoGame/JojosBizarreAdventureHeritageForTheFuture WRYYYYYYYYYY!!!!]]'''

--> He's just an onion! ''He's just an onion!! '''HE'S JUST AN ONION!!!''''' (one technical difficulty later, QG is seen whimpering powerlessly) [[MadnessMantra He's just an onion... he's just an onion...]]

--> '''Adam''': Did somebody order a '''LARGE HAM FOR THANKSGIVING?!'''

--> '''Adam''': "I! EXPECT! MORE! FROM! BOWSER!"

--> '''Adam''': "Seriously, EVERY! SINGLE! FREAKING! WORLD! HAS! AUTO! F***ING! SCROLLING!"

*** In his 'Top Fifteen Pokemon Gym Leaders' list, Ben (The Tree's Apprentice) started using his Running Gag, [[ItMakesSenseInContext when Dio, Adam's ruunning gag, cuts it off]].
--> '''Ben''': "Wh- What was that?"\\

-->'''[=MaverickHunterZero75=] ([=MHZ75=])''': So tell me again, what's the name of the guy who came in third place?\\

'''[=MHZ75=]''': I'm not asking you who came in second!\\

'''[=MHZ75=]''': I don't know!!\\

** Hazama/Yuuki Terumi. Almost every time he's mentioned, he either gets mad or Dio drops a steamroller on him. He made a cameo in Creator/GreenScorpion's countdown for video game cats because Terumi was mentioned, just to yell his name.

* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: Parodied. By yelling "WONDER-EYES, RETRO!!", he can magically and instantly equip himself with a cosplay of a custom ''VideoGame/TheWonderfulOneOhOne'' costume.

* [[VideoGame/MegaManClassic Wily]] vs. [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Eggman]]

* InterruptedSuicide: He does this to Flamicon when ''[[SonicRiders Sonic Free Riders]]'' shows up on the Top Twelve Friendship Killing Games.

* TakeThat: He nearly put the CEO of Konami as the worst boss in Castlevania due to the whole [[InternetBackdraft Konami debacle]]. He just backpedalled because it's against the rules: Entries must be bosses in Castlevania.

* ByThePowerOfGrayskull: Parodied. By yelling "WONDER-EYES, RETRO!!", he can magically and instantly equip himself with a cosplay of a custom ''VideoGame/TheWonderful101'' costume.

* MotiveRant: Adam makes a rather amusing summary of [[TheWonderful101 Jergingha]]'s motivation for invading Earth.

* SleazyPolitician: Adam hates these kind of characters (even to the point that [[Franchise/ProfessorLayton Bill Hawks]] surpassed both Terumi and Relius as far as his hated characters go), and this is one reason he keeps up the good fight to ensure the likes of SOPA and PIPA won't come to pass.
