* {{Fanservice}} - Mocked in [[DeadorAlive Dead or Awesome]]: EXTREEEEME

* TakeThat
** Awesome Reach is essentially one long insult to fans of HaloReach.

*** Which [[TheTester Sony]] probably didn't take too well...
** Egoraptor hates KnucklesChaotix. So...

* ThisIsForEmphasisBitch: Awesome Gaiden: "Hey, you bitch! I'm the strategy guide!"

** The release of [[{{Pokemon}} PokeAwesome]] happened to coincide with ''[[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]]'''s release and [[DeadHorseTrope the arrow to the knee meme]], so the inevitable 'I took a solar beam to the knee' comments really pissed Arin off, especially since it was not intended to be a Skyrim reference.

* TheDitz: [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Ash]] is [[{{Flanderization}} flanderized]] as this from his usual IdiotHero personality.

** TheLancer - Vex (or Vector)

->'''Doctor Stiles:''' OPEN 'DAT SHIT UP!

* FreezeFrameBonus: across several videos, even the stand-alone shorts. The credits to ''"Mr. Literal"'', for example, features part of the Pokerap (Electrode to Butterfree) as well as part of the credits to the movie ''Film/AmazingGrace''.

Nonsensical, almost [[WebAnimation/YouTubePoop YouTubePoop-ish]] animated shorts [[TheParody parodies]], created by Creator/{{Egoraptor}}. [[AffectionateParody Usually affectionate]], mostly hosted on {{Newgrounds}}, starting with the Metal Gear Awesome series and, like TheAbridgedSeries, [[FollowTheLeader spawning Awesome clones]]. Titles often go as such: [[VideoGame/GrandTheftAuto Grand Theft Awesome]], [[{{Cloverfield}} Awesomefield]], and so on.

** ''[[{{Cloverfield}} Awesomefield]]'', a fan-made contribution, has a low opinion of the movie.

** Metal Gear Awesome 4: Sons of the Awesome was pretty good too.

* StopHelpingMe: [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime Legend of Awesome]] has Link doing this to Navi.

* FreezeFrameBonus: across several videos, even the stand-alone shorts. The credits to ''"Mr. Literal"'', for example, features part of the Pokerap (Electrode to Butterfree) as well as part of the credits to the movie AmazingGrace.

--> "Hey yo bitch, I'm the strategy guide. You can't mess with me!"

** The [[PrinceOfPersia Prince of Awesome]] is basically the eponymous Prince falling down a cliff for about a minute, at which point he resets time and gets dragged back up the cliff, before falling down the cliff again.

* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: In Awesome Kong, Pauline refers to Mario as a 'plumber' despite the fact that, in that game, he was a carpenter. Also Donkey Kong calls Pauline 'Princess', when Pauline was just Mario's girlfriend.

** Complete with a sing-along bouncing O-face...dude...guy...thing from Awesome Center.

* PokemonSpeak: Enforced...sorta. Venusaur and Pikachu are both capable of speaking proper English. In Venusaur's case, he'll say what he means, and then correct himself with "I mean, Venusaur." In Pikachu's case, he doesn't start speaking English until he takes a solarbeam to the knee.

* FastForwardGag: Used as a quick joke in ''Franchise/MetalGear Awesome'', skipping over the scene where Otacon narrates his backstory...and pausing halfway to find Snake and Otacon about to make out.

** The release of [[{{Pokemon}} PokeAwesome]] happened to coincide with {{Skyrim}}'s release and [[DeadHorseTrope the arrow to the knee meme]], so the inevitable 'I took a solar beam to the knee' comments really pissed Arin off, especially since it was not intended to be a Skyrim reference.

* InsurmountableWaistHighFence: Lampshaded in [[ResidentEvil Resident Awesome 4]]

* OlderThanTheyThink: Sort of. An over-the-top Metal Gear Solid parody that acts as a FountainOfMemes with a big helping of CharacterExaggeration? [[{{hiimdaisy}} It happened again.]]

* FollowTheLeader: Many fans have tried to emulate his style, with varying results. (Examples: Franchise/{{Halo}}: Awesome Evolved and [[VideoGame/AssassinsCreed Awesome's Creed]])
