History LetsPlay / ChipCheezum

* ''VideoGame/{{Splatoon}}''

* RantInducingSlight: Ironicus compares R4 (played by Chip) to a Mac, causing Chip to give his opinion on Macintosh machines.
-->'''Chip:''' [=I AM AN OVERPRICED COMPUTER MADE FOR GRAPHICS DESIGNERS WHO ARE TOO STUPID TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO DO ANYTHING WITH A PC=]

** As part of a RunningGag in the ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'' LP, Ironicus refuses to believe Chip when he talks about [[AwesomeMcCoolname the last names]] of the members of Cloud's party (except Barret).

* KnifeNut: During his playthrough of ''Rogue Warrior'', Chip liked to forgo any gunplay in favor of just running up and stabbing everyone to death, even referring to the main character as a knife tornado.

* ''VideoGame/ADogsLife''

* ''Bart's Nightmare''

* ''Film/BeeMovie Game''

* ''Kirby's Dream Course''

Chip and Ironicus have two podcasts: [[https://chipodironicast.libsyn.com/ Chipod Ironicast]] (which updates irregularly) and [[https://soundcloud.com/bizarrepodcast Dogs Must Die]], a recap podcast of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' as Ironicus watches it for the first time.

* AchievementsInIgnorance: The [[CloudCuckooLander Vapor Snake]] runs of MGSV are marked by either humorously deliberate incompetence to show off the game's features or this. In the main mission in ''Ground Zeroes'', he manages to sneak across the entire compound to reach Paz by [[GoodBadBugs throwing a smoke grenade into a truck, turning it into a tactical stealth vehicle]] instead of finding Chico first. In ''The Phantom Pain'' proper, he's able to complete a mission ''before it actually begins'' by blowing up some equipment during a scuffle that happened as a result of him going to a place where he wasn't supposed to be.[[invoked]]

* ''[[VideoGame/LEGOAdaptationGame Lego Star Wars]]''

A popular [[LetsPlay Let's Player]] on the Website/SomethingAwful forums due to [[DoingItForTheArt putting insane amounts of time and effort into each LP]], Chip Cheezum has (at this time of writing) completed 31 Let's Plays, all of them currently or soon to be featured on the [[https://lparchive.org/author/Chip%20Cheezum LP Archive]]. Primarily accompanied in his [=LPs=] by General Ironicus, he has also collaborated with other fellow goons such as [=VoidBurger=], [=SnarkCookie=], A Wooden Palisade and Ambisagrus, as well as comic artist [[{{Webcomic/Gunshow}} KC Green]]. He also occasionally uploads WebVideo/{{Retsupurae}} videos to his [[https://www.youtube.com/user/chipcheezumsa?blend=1&ob=4 YouTube account]], though more recently the duo has focused more on old gaming-related commercials rather than bad Let's Plays, longplays, or any of the sort of shift the actual Retsupurae account experienced. He and General Ironicus have [[http://chipandironicus.com/index.html their own site]], where all of their [=LPs=] have been posted. Doesn't seem to have a high opinion of those who add quotes on this page.

* ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3''
* ''VideoGame/DmCDevilMayCry''

* FanNickname: InUniverse, several times during ''VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance''. Blade Wolf is almost always referred to as the "[[RobotDog dog-shaped]] RobotBuddy!", after an iffy translation of an official poll regarding the possibility of a sequel to the game. Chip also exclusively refers to the Falling Lightning kick and the Lightning Strike dash as respectively the [[VideoGame/ViewtifulJoe Red Hot Kick]] and the [[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Stinger]], since [[ShoutOut that's exactly what the moves are anyway]].

** [=VoidBurger=], on the other hand, does an ''absolutely perfect'' impression of [[Anime/{{Pokemon}} Ash Ketchum]]. She also does a spot on impression of a squeaky voiced lets player when she guested on Retsupurae.

The duo have two podcasts: [[https://chipodironicast.libsyn.com/ Chipod Ironicast]] (which updates irregularly) and [[https://soundcloud.com/bizarrepodcast Dogs Must Die]], a recap podcast of ''Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure'' as Ironicus watches it for the first time.

He's also broadcasted streams of the games below, which, in addition to [=YouTube=], you can also find him on [[http://www.ustream.tv/user/ChipCheezum at ustream]] and [[http://www.hitbox.tv/chipcheezum Hitbox]]:

* ''VideoGame/{{Xenoblade}}''

* SwappedRoles: Ironicus jokes early in the Plant chapter of ''[=MGS2=]'' that he loves the game just because its insistence on interrupting the gameplay with Codec conversations and/or cutscenes every five seconds lets Chip know how it feels to be the co-commentator.
-->''Ironicus:''' "God, stop playing the game and just watch it!" Now you know how it feels to be me! ''(chuckles from Chip)'' I love this game, just cause it puts you in my chair.

* StylisticSuck: The video for the Bitter Mode "run" of [[VideoGame/NoMoreHeroes Letz]] [[TheUnfought Shake]] is done in a typical bad LP fashion, complete with jittery webcam footage.

* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill : In [=MGS4=], when Chip fails to maximize an enemy's crying meter, he simply knocks him out and practically covers his face and body in tranquilizer darts.

** The games that Chip chooses for his Let's Plays usually have an eccentric older male relative (typically a [[CoolUncle cool]] and/or [[CreepyUncle creepy uncle]]); in the absence of such, [[AlternateCharacterInterpretation Chip and Ironicus will reinterpret another character to fit the mold.]] Notable examples include [[VideoGame/BeyondGoodAndEvil Pey'J]], [[VideoGame/{{Uncharted}} Victor Sullivan]], and [[VideoGame/MegaManLegends Grandpa]]. This was eventually taken to its logical conclusion with Aiden Pierce, a PlayerCharacter avenging the death of his niece.[[invoked]]

** Chip and Ironicus are not sympathetic to '''[[{{VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake}} The leaders of Wall Market]]''' at all. Being complicit in Don Corneo's human trafficking scheme tends to have that effect.

* ''VideoGame/SpiderMan''

** ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid'' was done by Chip and [=VoidBurger=], but during the Psycho Mantis fight General Ironicus is suddenly there after the first blackout. [=VoidBurger=] returns after the fight is over.

** To go along with the Psycho Mantis fight, Voidburger suddenly becomes Ironicus during the first Hideo Blackout. The second, Chip is now playing a hunting simulator as if it were a dad-themed RPG, while receiving Codec calls from himself trying to remember what he was actually supposed to be doing. The next video restores the game, and a third blackout after the boss fight brings back Voidburger.

* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: Discussed in-universe by Chip during the VideoGame/WatchDogs LP in the context of one of the Privacy Invasion side events: since almost everyone in the game is an unlikable asshole, and those who aren't are usually being abused in some way by said assholes, the only thing you're left with is a gross, unpleasant feeling that doesn't make you want to get involved in the game's setting or story, making it "a cesspool of human misery".

* [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill There Is No Tranquilizing Like Overtranquilizing]]: In [=MGS4=], when Chip fails to maximize an enemy's crying meter, he simply knocks him out and practically covers his face and body in tranquilizer darts.

* AluminumChristmasTrees: Chip and KC Green have a hard time believing that [[HeroicMime John Luke]] is a real member of [[Series/DuckDynasty the Robertson clan]], and not an OriginalCharacter made up for the game. They're even more amazed when they realize [[ExpositionFairy Cousin Beaux]] ''is'' an original character.

* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake''

* {{Adorkable}}: Both of them, but especially Chip.

** Every time a member of the B&B Corps shows up in a cutscene during ''Metal Gear Solid 4'', Ironicus will say something to the effect of "[[FridgeLogic You know what]] [[BellisariosMaxim I don't like about]] Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast?" [[invoked]]

-->'''Ironicus:''' [[VideoGame/WatchDogs This game]] is not helped by "uncle" being the funniest relative.
