Describing Me:

* AlohaHawaii: It's Sunny and hot and full of tourists.
* TearJerker: Pretty much immune, I can't understand the sheer emotion that people put into these pages, I've only cried once. It was at a Movie, Black Beauty, I was a lot younger, and staring at a TV screen for too long without blinking. I can't feel sad about fictional characters.
* VoiceOfTheLegion: Not me, but Troper LKB, who's been used by me, my brother, and at least 3 of my friends. Now, no one uses it much.

It was at a Movie, Black Beauty, I was a lot younger, and staring at a TV screen for too long without blinking. I can't relate to it when people say they were choked up or in tears at something, I can watch most sad scenes with a straight face.
** My Heart is a lump of coal, of course it kinda fell apart, so I replaced it with some obsidian, it's so shiny now.

The following is something of a sandbox for a works page I intend to launch:

WebOriginal/NitroRad

->"Hi, my name is James. They tell me I'm the coolest kid on my street. Welcome to Nitro Rad, a show where I talk about some rad games, and some not so rad games."

[[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-3J5xNrAbTLbU1gN8mMpOA/featured Nitro Rad]], started in 2013 by a Canadian Reviewer named James, is a VideoReviewShow about video games. The show specializes in video games from the NES era to the PS2 era but has become more known for the coverage of indie titles, primarily one's made in RPG maker. Horror Games are a favorite topic of discussion but the show has covered a wide range of topics. The sister channel, [[https://www.youtube.com/user/garanikor Garanikor]] hosts sketch comedies with James and his friends Alex and Grady.

!!Tropes

* AvoidTheDreadedGRating: He criticizes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiHG6fdw_sk Ruff Trigger's]] awkward swearing of being this.
-->They like to swear a lot in this game. And it's really weird because otherwise you'd think it was a kids game, but it got an E10 rating just because they thought by saying "Hell" or "Damn" they could make the game more edgy and badass (cuts to VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog).
* CatchPhrase: "So in the end is (X-game) a good game?" said usually in the summation at the end of his reviews.
* CausticCritic: Downplayed. The show's main purpose seems to be giving exposure to titles not in the mainstream and as such the reviews are predominantly positive though there are a number of titles James just enjoys ripping into.
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Alex plays Revolver Ocelot like this. He speaks in these bizarre sexually inappropriate metaphors that lose themselves all the while making weird hand gestures.
* ItsTheSameNowItSucks: The bad Silent Hill games he feels play heavily into this. Origins and Homecoming rely too much on what came before. The former plays itself too safe and hangs on to its status as a prequel by regurgitating Silent Hill 1. The latter tried too hard to be Silent Hill 2 with reused monsters (especially Pyramid Head) and plot beats that tried to recapture the "glory days" of the franchise.
* LeftHanging: The sad fate of too many VideoGame/YumeNikki fan games, especially the good ones.
* NakedPeopleAreFunny: From the {{VideoGame/Hylics}} review:
-->You can get better at cooking by putting clothes on? Well that explains why I always burn everything! (Cuts to a naked James cooking in the kitchen).
* {{Sequelitis}}:
** An inevitable talking point when it came to Franchise/SilentHill. While James does have good things to say about 4 and Downpour, Origins and Homecoming play this straight with uninteresting plots and an over-reliance on older elements to try and recapture lost glory.
** The {{VideoGame/Siren}} franchise took a nosedive with its final game. While not a bad game per-say, it did away with a lot of the scary elements from the previous games, had a cast full of unlikable characters, and the main gimmick of the games, the sight-jacking, was rendered nearly useless.
* SurprisinglyImprovedSequel: VideoGame/SilentHillDownpour. Though James notes that the game was considered one of the worst due to its broken launch he considers it the best of the Western developed Silent Hill games. He praises the game for trying to be more original with a better story and more scares. Though he finds most of the enemies uninteresting he does praise the Bogeyman for being its own creation and not a Pyramid Head rehash.
* TheyCopiedItNowItSucks: He's argued against this with VideoGame/YokaiWatch being accused of ripping off Pokemon. He made a video rebutting [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tukZ2tPAxOU&t=16s Jimmy Whetzel's]] video accusing Yokai Watch of this trope.
* UncannyValley: During the Siren retrospective he has a long discussion about how well the games use this trope. The overly expressive rudimentary motion captured faces on top of primitive character models are used to great effect to make the game unsettling. Forbidden Siren 2 especially utilizes this trope well with its use of enlarged heads and faces where they shouldn't be, both utilizing the same choppy motion capture.
