History LetsPlay / RadicalBromance

* TheCameo: DisgruntledFerret, author of ''MSPaintMasterpieces'' showed up in the chat from time to time.

* LevelGrinding: Averted mostly. Alex has expressed that he has zero qualms with applying the VideoGame/GameGenie or GameShark to a game to speed the process along. In ''VideoGame/MegaManLegends2'', Walker continuously stops to pick up fallen money, despite being told not to waste time.

* AccentuateTheNegative: Walker does a lot. Alex has noted that he finds this trope incredibly tiring.

* PutOnABus: Rob after the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2'' episodes. Looked to have occurred again post-VideoGame/ResidentEvil3, but didn't happen until the middle of the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' playthrough. Walker seems to have been put on it post-SonicTheHedgehog4, but returned in short order.

* ReusedCharacterDesign: Any faces that show up in the title cards. Striker and Walker claim to be guilty of this, Walker to a lesser extent. Alex says that he doesn't like it and prefers to avoid it, but is willing to recycle names.
* RetroGaming: Averted with Rob and Alex's ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' playthrough as well as Striker and Alex going head to head in VideoGame/UltimateMarvelvsCapcom3. Older games (or at least stuff prior to the PS3/360 era) seem to be becoming less frequent.

* SiblingRivalry: Overlaps with WouldHitAGirl. In the Resident Evil: Degeneration MSTing (which Youtube took down), Walker implies that Alex and his sister physically fought frequently. Alex edits the actual line out, noting that his mother really hates when the topic is publicly broached.

* TearJerker: Alex made it very clear that he was playing ''VideoGame/CastlevaniaSymphonyOfTheNight'' because it was the favorite game of his best friend that was DrivenToSuicide.

* TheBusCameBack: Rob returned for ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis''. According to him, his brief hiatus was because of his job. Time will tell if this was the cause of his more recent departure. Rob once again returns for a couple goes at the Prison of Elders in Destiny, citing that he and Alex haven't found something to play together. What this means for the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' playthrough is anyone's guess.
* TheCameo: DisgruntledFerret, author of ''MSPaintMasterpieces'' shows up in the chat from time to time.

* TheScrappy: How the RadBros feel about the photographer in ''VideoGame/EarthBound''.

* FakeDifficulty: Shantae's emulation induced input lag. Later, SuperMarioWorld and SonictheHedgehog. Walker notices this, but Alex apparently doesn't. Or he does, but claims to compensate for it.
* {{Fan}}: Rob was formerly a big ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' fan and Striker is fond of wrestling. Everyone seems to like TheAbridgedSeries of anything.

* {{Foil}}: Each of Alex's co-hosts exhibit this in a different fashion, with Striker less so due to similar temperament.

--> '''The Cynic:''' Walker (his gameplay style is also notably more cautious to Alex's aggressive)

* ReusedCharacterDesign: Any faces that show up in the title cards.

* FandomHeresy: Alex stating he likes MegaMan8 the most out of all classic MegaMan games.

* GracefulLoser: Frequent in-game deaths or failure don't bother Alex. Slightly averted during MegaMan5 on Crystal Man's stage.

* LevelGrinding: Averted mostly. Alex has expressed that he has zero qualms with applying the GameGenie or GameShark to a game to speed the process along. In MegaManLegends2, Walker continuously stops to pick up fallen money, despite being told not to waste time.

* BigFun: While it may just be his character, Alex comes off as this.

--> Brought up again and mostly jossed during an episode of ResidentEvil1. Walker's brand of humor involves taking things at face value or pretending jokes aren't funny as reactions.

* ThoseWackyNazis: Alex and Rob using stereotypical Nazi voices whenever they read an ApocalypticLog in ''VideoGame/DinoCrisis''. Unfortunately, it didn't make a comeback in ResidentEvil2.

* AudienceParticipation: The Hitbox chat window.

* FastForwardMechanic: Heavily used and abused in the EarthBound episodes.

* JackOfAllTrades: In regards to video games, Alex seems to abide by this. Or want to. WordOfGod is that he is more of a 'jack of all trades, master of none, but better than a master of one'.

* PutOnABus: Rob after the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2'' episodes. Looked to have occurred again post-VideoGame/ResidentEvil3, but didn't happen until the middle of the ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' playthrough. Walker seems to have been put on it post-SonicTheHedgehog4, but given his VitriolicBestBuds status with Alex, this is less surprising.

* TheScrappy: How the Radical Bros feel about the photographer in ''VideoGame/EarthBound''.
* TheTeetotaler: Alex is basically, contrary to Walker and Striker to a lesser degree.

* JackOfAllTrades: In regards to video games, Alex seems to abide by this. Or want to. WordOfGod is that he values the idea of having many different experiences rather than having a small comfort zone.

* SpriteComic: Walker himself still makes one called [[http://www.crowdedstreet.net/comic/main.html The Other Side]] while not co-starring on Radical Bromance. Alex previously had several. This can occasionally lead to the two of them noticing things about an older game's sprite style.

* TheBusCameBack: Rob returned for ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3Nemesis''. According to him, his brief hiatus was because of his job. Time will tell if this was the cause of his more recent departure. Rob once again returns for a couple goes at the Prison of Elders in Destiny, citing that he and Alex haven't found something to play together.

* RetroGaming: Averted with Rob and Alex's ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' playthrough as well as Striker and Alex going head to head in VideoGame/UltimateMarvelvsCapcom3. Older games (or at least stuff prior to the PS3/360 era) seem to be getting phased out.

* WithFriendsLikeThese: Sometimes it's difficult to tell if they're VitriolicBestBuds, BashBrothers or if Walker just dislikes Alex. As revealed during their Sonic 3 & Knuckles playthrough, Walker enjoys having an argumentative friendship with him. Alex, however, appears to quite dislike it.
