** During the ''Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, Part Four'' review, Danny raves enthusiastically about an obscure pirate-themed children's singer called Sharkman Frank, whose album he and Brian discovered by accident on Website/YouTube. At the time they discovered Sharkman Frank, his video had ''one view''--theirs (meaning even the uploader hadn't bothered to watch it). Within ten days of the GG episode going up, all of Sharkman Frank's videos had bumped up between 7,000 and 35,000 views.

** After Ross and Holly divorced, she entered into a complicated relationship with {{WebVideo/ProJared}} that eventually ended his marriage with prominent cosplayer Heidi O'Farrell. It's not confirmed if this is what led to Holly and Ross divorcing, [[https://twitter.com/RubberNinja/status/1126593742503157760?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet as Ross has refused to publicly comment further on the matter]]. In any event, the Grumps ended up pulling all of the videos featuring [=ProJared=] after allegations about him soliciting minors over {{Website/Tumblr}} and [=SnapChat=] were revealed. Jared's former network [=NormalBoots=] admitted the allegations went back to at least April 2019 and were consulting their legal counsel until the story blew up and they couldn't keep a lid on it.

** Along with the ''WebVideo/{{Continue}}'' crew and [[WebVideo/TheAngryJoeShow Angry Joe]], they (Danny and Arin) played a lot of UsefulNotes/XboxLiveArcade games in the summer of 2013. Like those other two, they just played like they normally do.

** Barry and Ross' playthrough of ''VideoGame/EarthBound'' got low views, but high praise from fans of the game (minus complaining about moments where Ross is inattentive or doesn't match Barry's levels of {{Squee}}).

** A lot of fans were apprehensive when it turned out the Grumps would be visiting ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'', due to Arin's sometimes controversial Zelda opinions. But within the first few episodes, he makes it clear that he still thinks the game earned the praise it got at the time and tells Dan (going in blind) that he would probably like the game.

Given that Arin also goes out of his way to avoid spoiling the surprise that Sheik is actually Zelda and thereby allowing Dan to organically experience the reveal it definitely feels like Arin was deliberately invoking this trope from the outset.

* AuthorsSavingThrow:
** The fact they now use walkthroughs to find out where to go or what to do. Admittedly it may not always stop fans from saying "PAY ATTENTION GUYS!" but at least progress is made at a more steady pace in some games thanks to this.
** Their February 2015 videos address complaints of not enough talk about game design, too much toilet humor, and finally lifting the UnPerson status on Jon.
** Arin has been known to be very negative about ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' games, so some fans were apprehensive of him being unnecessarily harsh to the aged ''[[VideoGame/SonicAdventure Sonic Adventure: DX]]'' and potentially tainting Danny's view of it. Thankfully, Arin admitted to being overly negative, was able to stay in what he called a "zen mode" for a good bit to not tear down the game too badly, stated that his criticisms of the franchise as a whole come from him actually liking Sonic, and clarified that he doesn't try to insult the games' fans. Dan, meanwhile, realized that the game was old enough that judging it too hard would be unfair, so he embraced it and has enjoyed the game for the most part.
** Fans still upset that Arin and Danny didn't complete Mario 64 to completion were ecstatic to see Arin try to 100% finish Mario Galaxy.
** The very first episode of ''Dead Rising'' finally features an open acknowledgment of Arin's tendency to blame the game for his not being able to figure out some control.
** A lot of fans were apprehensive when it turned out the Grumps would be visiting ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Ocarina of Time]]'', due to Arin's sometimes controversial Zelda opinions. But within the first few episodes, he makes it clear that he still thinks the game earned the praise it got at the time and tells Dan (going in blind) that he would probably like the game.
** After not doing any special "Ghoul Grumps" episodes in 2018 and receiving some backlash over it, Arin not only posted an apology video, but the two would later make Ghoul Grumps episodes in December with a "Nightmares before Christmas" theme. Judging by the comments, not only was this accepted as an apology, the idea of them playing horror/creepy/weird games just before the holidays is considered to be an interesting one.
