-->--'''Season 2 intro song'''[[hottip:*:Sung to the Green Greens Theme from {{Kirby}}]]
''[[http://www.youtube.com/show?p=LdnBaIw9t7M Two Best Friends Play]]'' is a WebOriginal comedy series found on the {{Machinima}}'s {{Youtube}} channel.
The series is a {{MST}} of sorts; two friends named Matt and Pat play video games, argue, and mock the game they are playing and each other. The series does not focus on the two friends; they weren't even named until the second season. According to the show's {{Facebook}} page, it started when The Switcher (Matt) invited his friend Snapshot King (Pat) over to play ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'' and record themselves taking their playthrough way too seriously. Besides that nothing is known about them; Matt ''sounds'' younger and enjoys LighterAndSofter games, and Pat ''sounds'' older and likes DarkerAndEdgier games, though based on the pictures on their {{Facebook}} page they look the same age.
Most videos goes two ways: either Matt and Pat play a bad game and ridicule the game and each other for suggesting that they play it, or they play a good game poorly and complain about how much the other one sucks at it. Either way we never see them complete the game, but that's not the point.
The videos are edited so the audience only sees highlights of their gaming session; they are around ten to fifteen minutes long. They also have a spin-off show called TBF: Funtime Adventures, an animated show about discussions the two have about games when not playing them.
More content can be found on the author's original channel [[http://www.youtube.com/user/TheSw1tcher here]], which has their original ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'' and ''SilentHillShatteredMemories'' videos, several mini-episodes, the episodes for the Super Best Friends Brawl spin-off (which involves Mat, Pat, and Woolie competing in local multiplayer games), and their full-length [[LetsPlay Let's Plays]]. The show's {{Facebook}} page can be found [[http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Two-Best-Friends-Play/193373957342411 here]].
All the pop cultural references are documented on the series' [[ShoutOut/TwoBestFriendsPlay Shout-Out]] page.

!!Tropes this series has:
* ActorAllusion: In the ''CaptainAmerica'' video Matt and Pat stop in front of a portrait of Johann Schmidt and take turns wondering why [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Elrond]], [[TheMatrix Agent Smith]], [[Film/{{Transformers}} Megatron]], and [[VForVendetta V]] ([[ComicallyMissingThePoint and Red Skull]]) would have portraits in a German castle before running out of HugoWeaving movies they can remember.
** They also spend the majority of the ''PrisonBreak'' video referring to Lincoln and Burrows as [[Film/ResidentEvilAfterlife Chris Redfield]] and [[{{Blade}} Dracula]], respectively.
* AluminiumChristmasTrees: In their ''WWE All Stars" and ''WWF No Mercy'' videos, they use a custom wrestler named the Shockmaster who seems to be created to be as ridiculous as possible. In reality, there was a wrestler called the Shockmaster and he looked pretty ridiculous (though not to the extent Pat managed in ''All Stars'').
* AnalogyBackfire: Matt calls ''HeavyRain'' "the ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' of video games".
** In the ''PrisonBreak'' video, Matt called Tom Paxton "the [[SplinterCell Sam Fisher]] of video games".
* {{Angrish}}: In TBFP: ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'', [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jWsiyXoTz0 around 10:19]], Matt encounters a monster and "Wazz-a-BA-jivuh...Kmm-PAT!!"
* AntiClimax: During the final round of the [[VideoGame/{{Worms}} Worms 2: Armageddon]] video, Woolie finds a [[StuffBlowingUp Banana Bomb]], an item that provokes a BigYes from the now-spectating Pat and an OhCrap from the surviving Matt. Come the final turn of the video, Woolie has ten seconds to damage Matt enough to put him in the lead, and Pat urges him to use the Banana Bomb. He gets into position, throws it... [[spoiler: ...and it flies across the map, [[OhCrap hits a curve]], [[EpicFail flies back towards Woolie]], and [[CrowningMomentOfFunny detonates over his head]], all to the hysterical laughter of Matt and Pat.]]
* AscendedMeme: During their ''DeadRising2'' video, Matt made fun of an NPC named Anim's name, asking if it was a real name. In ''Dead Rising 2: Off The Record'', Frank West paraphrases this, saying "Is Anim even a real name?" They don't notice this when they play the game, though.
* AudienceParticipation: A week before the ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' video went up the friends put a message on their {{Facebook}} page telling them at what time on Friday they would be playing and inviting everyone to join. The online matches make up the middle part of the video. Ditto for ''SoulCalibur V''.
** During the ''Indie Games II'' vid, Pat tells everyone to put pictures of Basking Sharks on the Facebook fan page. In the next week's video, ''MassEffect3'' he urged the fans to stop because they did it far too much.
* AwesomeMcCoolname: [[GirlchanInParadise Kenpachi Ramasama]] from their ''{{Persona 4}}'' video.
* BerserkButton: One of the zombie files in LollipopChainsaw mentioned a teacher who flunked a student for being ginger. This pissed Pat off to no end.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Despite Matt's preference for LighterAndSofter games, he is quick to dismiss FirstPersonShooter games that don't include shotguns. And then there's [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential his behavior]] while playing ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'', his body-stomping behavior in ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'', and his apparent delight in mutilating dead bodies in general.
** In season 4, Matt shows a tendency to [[BeatingaDeadPlayer teabag]]. [[ArsonMurderandJaywalking Not really a bad thing, but...]]
* BigBallOfViolence: Featured in the third version of the opening theme (introduced midway through season 2).
* BigNo:
** Pat does ''not'' want to chip in to buy the full version of ''Vampire Rain''.
** Matt's response to having to play ''ShaqFu''.
* BigWhat: Their reaction to Ocelot's meowing in ''MetalGearSolid3''.
* BigWordShout: [[spoiler:At the end of the ''CaptainAmerica'' video, Matt screams '''''"AMERICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"''''' as he makes Captain America jump at a Nazi robot.]]
* BlackBestFriend[=/=]BlackDudeDiesFirst: In the beginning of ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'' Isaac is being treated by a black doctor. Pat talks about how helpful this new best friend will be right before he's killed and mutated by a necromorph. Then humorously lampshaded a few minutes later.
-->'''Matt:''' Not a good day, my super best friend black guy, just totally--\\
'''Pat:''' Yeah, Franco really bought it.
** There's also their black best friend Woolie. Who 'died' first when fighting Daigo at EVO.
* BlackComedyRape: The discussion of Catherine raping Vincent in the ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}'' video.
* BlindIdiotTranslation: The "English" version of one of the Xbox Indie games they play, ''Legend of the Dragonflame Highschool''.
-->'''Matt:''' *reading aloud* YOU DO NOT HAVE THE VETO BECAUSE I HAVE KIDNAPPED MIYUKI OF YOUR YOUNGER SISTER.
* BondOneLiner:
** ''RiseofNightmares'' is full of them doing these, in response to nearly every single NPC's death.
** In ''Survival'', after killing a bear, Matt quips "Man, we '''barely''' got away from that encounter!"
* BootstrappedTheme: "Green Greens" was only used as the opening music for the pilot episode because they were playing a {{Kirby}} game, but it's been used since to open every other video.
* BrickJoke: Early on in the ''MortalKombatShaolinMonks'' video, they established that unlike some of the other games they have played co-op, they actually are working together and can't kill each other. Matt points out that they'll probably find a way to kill each other later. Sure enough, they did.
* BuffySpeak: Matt does a light version of this on occasion.
-->'''Pat:''' You don't even know what incognito means...\\
'''Matt:''' It means that people can't see me, with, their eyeballs.
** And later in that same game they discuss going into "sneaky-stab mode".
** In ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'', the word science gets abused. "Science it up. You're science-ing right now!"
* CallBack:
** Pat makes Matt play ''SilentHillShatteredMemories'' because Matt made Pat play ''[[VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn Epic Yarn]]''.
** Pat makes Matt play ''DeadRising2'' so they can fight some monsters that are actually monstrous, unlike the crappy vampires in ''Vampire Rain''.
** In the ''Dead Rising 2: Off The Record'' video, Matt brings up the fact that unicorns can be called ponies and says that Pat would know all about that, bringing up the fact that he had a WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic desktop at the end of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' video.
*** And in Funtime Adventures episode 1, you can see Celestia and Luna toys in a shelf behind Pat.
* TheCameo: [[spoiler: [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Derpy Hooves]]]] makes a quick appearance in the first episode of Two Best Friends Funtime Adventures.
* CatchPhrase: Matt is fond of yelling "America!" when he wins something or sees something patriotic.
-->'''Pat:''' ''Why do you keep saying that!?''
** Eventually, it gets to the point where when they play ''ResidentEvil4'', this conversation happens:
-->'''Matt:''' Invade America, will you!?\\
'''Pat:''' [[LampshadeHanging You're in their country!]]
*** Strangely enough, they actually avoid yelling "America!" during the ''MetalWolfChaos'' video, the most patriotic video game ever made. Maybe its because Matt would be yelling it every 10 seconds. Or maybe it's because the game basically does it for him.
** Pat's prepared response whenever Matt urges him to do something.
-->'''Matt:''' Hey, [verb] that [noun]!\\
'''Pat:''' Oh, I'll [verb] the ''shit'' out of that [noun].
*** This one is somewhat subverted with "Pick up that file!"
** They're both fond of describing awesome things (either for real or in SarcasmMode) as "bomb ass" and things that are exciting are referred to as "hype" as in "this is the hypest shit!" Pat also likes pronouncing "babies" as "babbies."
** "See ya later, fuckers!"
** Any sexual joke said by Matt is usually followed by [[DontExplainTheJoke "Get it? It's like sex..."]]
** "Wanna join my ''Bible Black'' club?"
** Pat going [[WhatTheHellHero "Why would you do that?!"]] whenever Matt does something befitting of a jerkass or just plain stupid.
* ChekhovsGun: At the beginning of ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'', Matt has trouble reading the control instructions that appear on the screen. Then at the end of the video, Matt listens to Pat [[ForTheEvulz who tells him to press X to make the parachute glide faster]], instead of reading the instructions on screen that say pressing X will make the parachute collapse.
* ColbertBump: ''T.E.C. 3001'' has gotten a fair bit of publicity thanks to their ringing endorsement of the game in the second Xbox Live Indie Games video, prompting the developers to publicly thank them.
* ComedicSociopathy: After a StunnedSilence as the protagonist of ''HeavyRain'' mourns the death of his son, Matt quips "Man, what a loser."
** In ''Gears of War 3'' Pat complements Dom's [[spoiler:[[BeardOfSorrow "Wife Killing Beard"]]]].
** When Matt runs into the first character in RiseofNightmares, the first thing both of them think is to try and beat her with a lead pipe.
*** After Matt gets scared after Pat's jump scare, Pat proceeds to mock Matt's terror.
* ContinuityNod:
** Matt speculates that [[VideoGame/DukeNukemForever Duke Nukem]] may be a TimeCop, repeating a running gag from the SNES video.
** During their review of ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'', an independent PC game, Matt points out that they haven't had the best track record with indie games, referring to their look at Xbox Live Indie Games.
** In the ''CaptainAmerica'' video, Matt thinks he can do the same attacks that Captain America can do in ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3''.
** In the ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' video, Matt sings the "science" song from the ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'' episode and repeats the "WE'RE GOING TO MAKE IT OUT OF THIS!" gag from ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2''.
** During ''{{Catherine}}'', Matt says that he once watched Bear Grylls eat sheep eyes.
** During the DeadIsland mini-episode, they [[ResidentEvil4 call the zombies]] [[NotAZombie "zambamboes" and "zimbies"]] a few times.
** During ''Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon'', Pat goes berserk and starts shooting Matt once the latter says that [[MortalKombat invisibility]] is stupid.
** Whenever something resembling a fetus is shown, they immediately assume it's some sort of sequel to ''Baby Maker Extreme''.
** Matt claims Pat will be an expert at ''Off the Record'' when he spots a couple of unicorn and pony heads, a reference to Matt discovering Pat's [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic desktop wallpaper]] in the ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' video.
** Matt and Pat think the SassyBlackWoman they run into in ''Off the Record'' is the same SassyBlackWoman from ''[[VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution Human Revolution]]''.
** Matt explains the story of ''KaneAndLynch'' to Pat during the ''MetalGearSolid'' video like how Pat explained to Matt ''MetalGearSolid'' in the ''KaneAndLynch'' video.
* CovertPervert: Whenever Matt runs into a lady [=NPC=] in ''RiseofNightmares'', he hovers the hand icon over their chests or butts.
-->'''Pat''': Okay man, I wasn't exactly gonna ask or anything, but why won't you stop touching all the-*cut to next clip*
* ClusterFBomb: The friends swear all the time, usually in frustration, though Pat casually replaces other nouns with "shit".
** Here's a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SI1UN8S6dQA compilation video]] of all their swearing between ''DonkeyKongCountryReturns'' and ''DeadlyPremonition''. It's fifteen minutes long.
* CriticalResearchFailure: Deliberately invoked. They play ''RedDeadRedemption'', but [[spoiler:gameplay shows that they're actually playing ''Gun'']], and the tags on the video list it as [[spoiler:''Call of Juarez'']]. This is more in-character than the creators making a mistake, since [[spoiler:they somehow switch over to ''Redemption'' at the end]].
* CurbStompBattle: When Matt or Pat (they are not sure who) invites their friend Woolie to play ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'' with them, he brings his own arcade controller and tears Pat to bits. The friends are not amused.
-->'''Woolie (as X-23):''' Yeah it's kind of unblockable when you're jumping in, and you're at level three.\\
'''Pat:''' Sh-shut up, shut up. Just get out.\\
'''Matt:''' Get out!\\
'''Pat:''' Get the fuck out!\\
'''Matt:''' Get ouuuuuut!\\
*cut to credits*
* DeadpanSnarker: Both of them are a couple of smartasses. For example, during ''[[FistOfTheNorthStar Ken's Rage]]'' when they are reading the move list:
-->'''Matt:''' The moves are probably super complicated.\\
''Goes to move list, normal attack is eight x's in a row''\\
'''Pat:''' Holy fucking shit are you serious?\\
'''Matt:''' Okay, let me write down what normal attack is.\\
'''Pat:''' Okay: x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x.\\
'''Matt:''' What was after the fifth x?\\
'''Pat:''' x, x, x.\\
'''Matt:''' Okay.\\
'''Pat:''' x.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Invoked almost exactly by name during the ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'' playthrough, in which Matt inadvertently kills Pat through the game's IntimateHealing mechanic.
-->'''Matt:''' You got distracted by our makeouts!
* TheDitz: Matt's naivete ranges from simply being misinformed, to childlike, to whatever brain-dribbling-out-his-ears stupidity was going through his head during ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}''.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: During the ''DisasterDayOfCrisis'' episode they watch a tower collapse in a manner similar to the World Trade Center. Matt asks Pat flat out if it seems familiar. Pat says it reminds him of ''VideoGame/BionicCommando'', [[MoodWhiplash then drinks a container of orange juice larger than the character's head]].
* DontExplainTheJoke: From the ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' episode on Matt displays a tendency to say "Oh, it's like sex" after any DoubleEntendre joke.
* DontThinkFeel: Matt suggest this during ''DonkeyKongCountryReturns''. Pat doesn't listen.
-->'''Matt:''' If you think we die.\\
'''Pat:''' What is up with you and saying that?\\
''Pat dies''\\
'''Matt:''' You thought!\\
'''Pat:''' Oh, you're right, I totally did! I thought about what a dick you are. ''(dies again)'' Fuck, I guess I was thinking it again!
* DoubleEntendre[=/=]ThatsWhatSheSaid: Pops up often.
** From the ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' episode:
--->'''Matt:''' Blow him! Blow him.... I mean, blow ''on'' him.
** In the ''Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage'' episode:
--->''Matt's getting his ass handed to him by Kenshiro''\\
'''Pat:''' You just took it all up in your face. Bet you're used to that too!
** This early joke from the ''Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks'' episode:
--->'''Matt:''' It's so long.
--->'''Pat:''' That's what she said. [[DontExplainTheJoke About my dick]]. She said it about my dick.
--->'''Matt:''' I don't-
--->'''Pat:''' When she said that, she was talking about my dick.
* DroppedABridgetOnHim: Pat attempts to explain to Matt that Poison from ''StreetFighter'' isn't as woman as he thinks he is. Matt remains oblivious.
-->'''Pat:''' There's a penis in there!\\
'''Matt:''' ... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Yeah, mine!]]

* DumbStruck: What happens to Matt at the end of the ''DonkeyKongCountryReturns'' video when he wastes their last life jumping over a cliff which he thought might have a token under it.
-->'''Pat:''' Why won't you say anythin-*cut to credits*
* DullSurprise: In the ''Captain America'' video, the two friends make fun of Captain America's default expression, which looks extremely bored.
* {{Eagleland}}: Matt likes to invoke Type 1.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In the original ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'' video, Matt and Pat's now-traditional roles were reversed, with Pat being the goofball and Matt being the straight man.
* EpicFail: Matt "failing everything" in ''DeadRising2''.
-->'''Pat:''' You failed everything! You have literally failed everything. The whole game is over now, but it'll still let you play it, to let you know how you fucked it up so bad.\\
'''Matt:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint At least I was wearing sweet cut-offs]].
* ExpospeakGag:
** During the ''[[PunchOut Punch-Out!!]]'' video, when Pat references a [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/stole-my-bike certain meme]]:
-->'''Pat:''' I think that black gentleman may have acquired that man's bicycle.\\
'''Matt:''' Do you now?\\
'''Pat:''' I do.
** When they see a bunch of people running for a helicopter in ''Gears of War 3'':
-->'''Pat''': Ohhhh, I feel like I should say something here.\\
'''Matt''': I think you're gonna have to [[Film/{{Predator}} get inside that helicopter with urgency]].
** Upon being attacked by a cougar in Cabela's Survival: Shadows of Katmai:
-->'''Pat:''' Oh, fuck! It's a cougar!
-->'''Matt:''' Get away from me you sexy older lady!
-->'''Pat:''' I don't have any use for your worn-out charms!
* EveryoneHasStandards: Despite his legendary poor taste in games, even MATT gets fed up with ''DrakeOfThe99Dragons'' VERY quickly.
* FalseReassurance: At the end of the ''MortalKombatShaolinMonks'', Matt proposes playing another MK game. Pat agrees as long as it isn't MortalKombat4. Matt assures him that it's not. [[spoiler:It's ''MortalKombatSpecialForces''. Cue trippy HeroicBSOD from Pat.]]
* FateWorseThanDeath: Pat says that if he ever finds the guy who made ''Alderman'', one of the XboxLiveArcade games, he's going to make him play it.
* FlatWhat: Pat's reaction to Matt beating the Chun-Li parry mode in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' when he couldn't.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: During ''VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce2017'' video, the screen says that Matt has finished downloading ''Vampire Rain'', which is what they play the next week.
** Playing RE 4, one of them says, "That badass snake's going to bite your dick." [[spoiler: Guess what happens in the season finale.]]
** During the Dead Rising 2 tutorial, Matt reacts to all of the dying civilians. When he goes "PAT IS DEAD!" you hear Pat groan. It's funnier to watch now that we know their names.
** In the middle of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' video [[spoiler: Matt stops playing the game, goes on Ebay, and buys a copy of ''DrakeOfThe99Dragons''.]]
*** And at the end of ''Matt's Bomb-Ass Apartment Tour!'', [[spoiler: Matt gets an unseen original Xbox game in the mail...]]
** In the ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' video, they dub Elena's theme from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' over Jensen's "dancing". Next video, they play the new Online Edition of said game.
** During their Xbox Live Indie Games II video, after the "Colonies: Neociv" demo ends, Matt replies, "At least it was better than ''Mass Effect 3''", which is what they play next week.
* FriendshipMoment: Maybe?
-->'''Pat:''' Why do I even come over here?\\
'''Matt:''' Um, 'cause you're my friend.\\
''Pat groans''

-->'''Matt:''' So nothing bad is going to happen?\\
'''Pat:''' Nothing bad is going to happen.\\

'''Matt:''' Oh fuck! You said nothing bad was going to happen!\\
'''Pat:''' To you!\\
'''Matt:''' Nigel!
** And another during the ''[[PunchOut Punch-Out!!]]'' video when they are playing ''Super Punch-Out!!'' and Matt loses to Mr. Sandman:
-->'''Matt:''' Aw fuck, great, terrific! I got the Wii Punch-Out; that shit's got to be-\\
'''Pat:''' Everything for the Wii is for babies.\\
'''Matt:''' They're for babies! It's so easy it's just gonna-\\
''Cut to [[spoiler: Donkey Kong]] kicking Matt's ass''\\
'''Pat:''' Oh what the fuck?!
** And ''another'' when the two are picking out armor for ''Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon''.
-->'''Matt:''' What color should I take?\\
'''Pat:''' Pink.\\
'''Matt:''' ''No.''\\
'''Pat:''' Pink. Take the pink one. Take the pink color.\\
'''Matt:''' Why would I take pink?\\
'''Pat:''' Because it ''suits you.'' Take the pink one.\\
'''Matt:''' No, I won't take pink!\\
'''Pat:''' Take the little girly color! Take it!\\
'''Matt:''' Shut up!\\
''Cut to the two dropping into the game. One of them is wearing pinkish armor.''\\
'''Pat:''' Yeah, come on, Pinky!\\
'''Matt:''' Shut up! It doesn't matter which color I am.
* GotMeDoingIt: After getting annoyed at Matt calling Wheatley "Nigel" in the ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'' episode, Pat accidentally calls him by that name and promptly gets more pissed off.
** They also have this quick exchange waiting for a multiplayer game in ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'' to load.
-->'''Pat:''' We all gotta sneak around, and be sneaky, and then stab.\\
'''Matt:''' Sneaky-stab mode?\\
'''Pat:''' Sneaky-stab m-...You fucking tricked me into saying that stupid thing.\\
'''Matt:''' I didn't trick you you just wanted to say it.\\
'''Pat:''' I kinda wanted to.
* GroinAttack: As Matt and Pat are quick to point out, the snakes in ''Man Vs Wild'' really do look like they're biting Bear Grylls in the groin.
* HeroicComedicSociopath: In the first match of ''SuperPunchOut'', Matt and Pat decide Mac must be some kind of monster for delivering a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to Gabby Jay, an old man who hasn't won for 99 fights.
-->'''Matt:''' Shouldn't Mac feel a little bad about-\\
'''Pat:''' Just beat the shit out of that old man! He knew what he was getting in for!
* HiddenDepths: Despite his constant swearing, Pat is well-read and educated.
* HighlyVisibleNinja: Matt is the worst assassin ever in ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood''.
-->'''Matt:''' Blend! Blend! Blend with me! Someone blend with me!
** Matt also has numerous moments in ''MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'', minor offenses starting with wearing high-profile American flag face paint or hiding in a cardboard box...in the middle of a forest.
-->'''Pat:''' You're gonna get detected, man.
-->'''Matt:''' No way, I never get detected!
-->''Cut to an enemy being alerted to Snake's presence''
-->'''Matt:''' Oh shit! Nothing, it's nothing!
* HilariousOuttakes: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16MmibMnSFE Though you'll be hard-pressed]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BG373E1_d4 to find a difference between]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BszaePI0wi8 the outtake videos and the regular videos.]]

'''Matt:''' I don't wanna be on top of anything that has to do with you.\\
'''Pat:''' Augh... ''gross!''\\
'''Matt:''' Get it, it's like sex...
** And there's them fanboying over Cole Train in ''Gears of War 3''.
*** [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday "No homo."]]
** Directly invoked when playing ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'' upon discovering the ability to heal your companion by kissing.

--> '''Matt:''' Hey dude, come frolic in the blood with me, let's go.
--> '''Pat:''' I thought you'd never ask...
--> '''Matt:''' Oh, this reminds me of that one summer...
* HurricaneOfPuns: The ''RiseOfNightmares'' video features a pretty lengthy version of this.
** It's not just isolated to the Rise of Nightmares vid. In fact, a good bit of the humor is puns. This is usually done when someone dies in a unique way, like in Rise of Nightmares.
* InsurmountableWaistHighFence: Discussed numerous times when playing ''Captain America''.
-->'''Matt:''' I'm not super enough or soldier enough to go up these one foot tall sandbags! ''50 million dollars well spent!''
* InstantWinCondition: They suddenly beat the opening level of ''Survival'', and Pat wonders what the hell happened to the wolves that were attacking the protagonist a second ago.
* ItAmusedMe:
** In ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'' Pat informs Matt of a "sweet" achievement which involves scaling a rather large building and safely parachuting off of it. The endeavor takes a few hours and frustration on both sides, but ends with Matt succeeding. Until Pat tricks Matt into letting go of his parachute and killing himself. Also he didn't get the achievement because of the aforementioned death.
** In ''ResidentEvil4'', Pat tells Matt he can get gold and items from shooting the fish in the lake. The fish monster in the lake promptly eats him.
** This is more or less the reason Pat makes Matt play ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2''.
* JumpScare: They are really fond of evoking these, having done so in ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'', ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'', and ''ResidentEvil4''.
** Pat pulls this on Matt during the ''Amnesia'' video, leaving to go get a snack and then waiting for Matt to run into a monster before jumping out and yelling "Boo!"
* JumpingTheShark: Invoked in a rather literal fashion in the ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' episode:
-->'''Matt:''' Jump the shark! Jump the shark!
-->'''Pat:''' I don't wanna jump the shark! ...Aw, we jumped it.
** This was in reference to the series getting greenlit on the Machinima channel.
* JumpPhysics: Commented on in ''Survival''.
-->'''Pat:''' Dude, look at that jump! That's like a real human being's jump. ... No one in games jumps like this, this is totally legit.\\
''[One scene later, the game abandons realism and the character makes a massive leap across a chasm.]''\\
'''Matt:''' Whoooooa! ''That's'' a jump!\\
'''Matt and Pat, in unison:''' ''Fuck Bear Grylls!''\\
''[Even later]''\\
'''Pat:''' Man, he's like the mayor of fucking Jump Town with that shit.
* LargeHam: Sometimes they like to ham up a scene now and then.
--> '''Matt:''' Hey Pat, what's the prognosis here?
--> '''Pat:''' '''''MUUUUUUUUUURDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEER'''''.
** The ''HeavyRain'' video is them overreacting to the control introduction.
* LampshadeHanging: While playing ''{{Catherine}}'', the two wonder why somebody would want to be friends with people who treat them like shit all the time.
* LaughingMad: Pat breaks down in laughing anguish in ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'' when two alien enemies slowly drop down from a hole in the ceiling (with no footing and topped with an industrial fan) from out of nowhere.
* MemeticBadass: [[Invoked]]. The ''Man Vs. Wild'' episode has interstitials offering facts about Bear Grylls. Apparently, as a child, Bear Grylls learned from electric eels how to channel electricity through his body. He once nursed a family of mountain lions back to health until they were strong enough for him to kill and eat. He once met [[CthulhuMythos Cthulhu]], who ran away in terror.
* MismatchedEyes: Upon noticing that Togo, the sled dog from ''Survival'', has one blue eye and one green eye, Pat speculates that Togo must be [[FinalFantasyX Yuna]] reincarnated.
* {{MST}}
* MusicalChores: [[EarWorm It's gonna be fun when we solve science.]]
* NamelessNarrative: The two friends did not call each other by their names in the first season. The Season 2 intro reveals their names are Matt and Pat, which they then call each other at the end of the ''ResidentEvil4'' video.
* NoIndoorVoice: Shouting seems to be Pats normal way of communicating with Matt.
* NotTheFallThatKillsYou: Pat finds ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedRevelations''' use of a grappling hook to be slightly unrealistic:
-->'''Pat:''' Can I just point out that, if that was real, he's like falling off a fucking ledge, and sticks out a little hook? His arm's gonna come right the fuck off!
* NumberedSequels: Matt and Pat try really hard to figure out how to pronounce ''F.3.A.R.'', but eventually give up, figuring it's not worth their time.
* OffscreenInertia: Matt and Patt apparently spent an entire ''week'' playing ''T.E.C. 3001''
* OffscreenTeleportation: In ''Survival''.
-->'''Pat:''' How'd Togo get here?\\
'''Matt:''' Togo, you were down at the mountain, like at the base camp.\\
'''Pat:''' Dude, is that dog, like, [[QuantumLeap quantum leaping]]? Is that dog time-traveling?
* OneOfUs: It's revealed at the end of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' video that [[spoiler:Pat is a brony.]]
** They have also shown to know a lot about ''AGameOfThrones'' and ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime''.
* OverlyLongGag:
** Matt taking so long to color the picture in ''Shattered Memories'' that Pat angrily storms out only to return to Matt still coloring.
** Trying to kill the invincible prostitutes in ''[[VideoGame/{{Gun}} Red Dead Redemption]]''.
--->'''Matt:''' Old Betsy, the [[ImplacableMan Whore of Steel]].
** Matt spinning the motorcycle around in ''Ken's Rage'' and to make Pat sick from the motion blur.
* PaperTiger: For all of his bluster and snarkiness, at around [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jWsiyXoTz0 8:55 in the video]], Matt too falls prey to the gnawing horror of [[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]. And a [[JumpScare jump scare]] from Pat.
* PatrioticFervor: Matt loves him some America. He even named his character in ''DemonsSouls'' "AMERICA".
** Not to mention his BigWordShout at the end of the ''Captain America'' video.
** However, according to their Youtube and Facebook accounts, [[CanadaEh they're Canadian]].
*** Pat sometimes lets out an "eh" at the end of his sentences. As for why they prefer America, they're [[AssassinsCreedRevelations on record]] for calling Quebec a "shithole".
* PercussiveMaintenance: Done as a joke in the ''Batman: Arkham City'' video: the video starts with gameplay from ''Batman: Dark Tomorrow'' and they hit the TV to change it to ''Arkham City''
* PreviouslyOn: Pat tries to explain to Matt the backstory for ''F.E.A.R.'' while ''F.3.A.R.'' does its own version, and makes the whole thing sound stupid and overcomplicated. Matt doesn't pay attention.
* PrisonRape: Continuously referenced and joked about in their ''PrisonBreak'' video. They found the showers and walked out instantly.
* RapidFireNo: Pat's reaction to Matt wanting to play ''Survival'' is this for half a minute, without letting Matt get a word in.
* RealMenWearPink: [[spoiler:Pat, despite favoring SurvivalHorror and M-Rated games more than Matt, has ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' wallpaper on his computer. Matt is weirded out by this.]]
* RealSongThemeTune: The intro and outro song is "Green Greens" from {{Kirby}}, even when the upbeat song [[SoundtrackDissonance does not fit with the game they are playing]].
** WithLyrics: Starting with the first episode of Season 2 until the ''Portal 2'' episode, turning it into an ExpositoryThemeTune. Lyrics are in the page quote.
* RunningGag:
** During their SNES playthrough, they repeatedly call back to the game they played at the beginning of the video, ''TimeCop''.
** Pat continuously brings up Reptile's invisibility while playing ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'', whether he's actually onscreen or not. This has shown up in their Earth Defense Force, Skyrim, and Metal Gear Solid HD videos as well.
** More often then not, the episode will end with one of them screaming something.
** They love mocking bad jump animations.
** See you later, fuckers!
** Playing [[MetalGearSolid3 "Snake Eater"]] every time a character goes up a ladder.
** Repeated references to Pat's uncle being an absolutely horrible human being.
** Referring to black characters as Woolie.
** Although this isn't intentional, it still sort of counts: Matt's consistently awful navigational skills and his tendency to throw the fireaxe in the ''SilentHillDownpour'' LetsPlay.
** Stating on multiple occasions that they will never play ''{{Minecraft}}''.
* SarcasmMode:
-->'''Pat:''' Yay, here we go again. Having so much fun with this ''Vampire Rain''.
** And during ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}''
-->'''Pat:''' Alright, I'm sure this will turn out awesome. I'm sure I'll have loads of fun with you, playing this cooperative mode.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Matt and Pat sometimes quit the game they're playing in frustration.
** Matt RageQuits ''Amnesia'' when he's had enough of the scary.
** The two wordlessly quit playing ''ShadowsOfTheDamned'' when they get to [[spoiler: the staircase with heads rolling down it]].
** In ''{{Catherine}}'', when they find out they have to have another conversation with the unlikable Katherine they quit with a double "Nope, fuck you bitch!"
** Matt rage quits ''DrakeOfThe99Dragons'' because the game is too terrible even for him.
* SeinfeldianConversation: Once in a while.
** Pat explains to Matt the backstory to ''MetalGear'' during ''Kane and Lynch''.
** They chose to discuss the recently released 3DS and what kind of present to get for a friend during two separate cutscenes in ''Resident Evil 4'', neither of which they realized had quicktime events embedded in them.
** Matt's overanalyzation of ''Earth Defense Force 2017'' as Japan's response to the War on Terror.
** Almost the entire ''WWEAllStars'' video is them discussing the wrestler's careers.
** In ''Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon'', we hear a snippet of a conversation about Greek philosophy while Matt's playing the single-player game. Turns out Pat's a fan of the Socratic method, and thinks that Aristotle held back modern thinking by hundreds of years.
** Much of their ''ResidentEvil2'' playthrough is this, with them discussing various backstory elements of the RE-verse, including disdain for the SD Perry Novels and spin-off games, as well as Arnold Schwarzenegger's filmography, the merits of ''SystemShock'', and other various topics.
*** The ''SilentHillDownpour'' LetsPlay is like this as well, with offhand conversations of past ''SilentHill'' games, as well as the usual offtopic discussions, being common.
** Matt explains the plot of ''Kane and Lynch'' to Pat during the ladder sequence in ''MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater''.
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Matt and Pat, respectively. Though calling Matt sensitive is a bit of a stretch.
* SidetrackedByTheGoldenSaucer: Matt really gets into the coloring segments of ''Shattered Memories'', to Pat's annoyance.
-->'''Pat:''' That's it, that's it, I'm outta here.\\
'''Matt:''' This is awesome.\\
'''Pat:''' Fuck you.\\
'''Matt:''' Well, I mean-\\
'''Pat:''' *slams door*\\
''Later when Matt has almost finished coloring in the entire page''\\
'''Pat:''' Okay, dude, I knew I blew up. I'm sorry, but- Are you still coloring this? Are you serious? You have been coloring this the entire time I've been gone? What's wrong with you? You're like, the worst person I have known in my entire life.\\
'''Matt:''' Well, this is fun.\\
'''Pat:''' ''God'', I hate you so m-We're no longer friends.
* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: In addition to being a full-on LetsPlay, in the ''ResidentEvil2'' videos Matt and Pat act a lot more normal. Matt isn't an idiot, and Pat is a lot less exasperated. This is lampshaded.
* SorryILeftTheBGMOn: Matt whistles along to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OUP_Z3iZPs "Life Is Beautiful"]] during ''DeadlyPremonition'', which drives Pat nuts. Then later the music starts up again, but it's only Matt's ringtone.
-->'''Pat:''' You put that shit as your cellphone ringtone?!
* SophisticatedAsHell: Pat's insults are normally restricted to "your mom" jokes and telling Matt he sucks, but on one occasion he calls Matt "[[Theatre/RichardIII the winter of his discontent]]". Matt [[InsultBackfire takes it as a compliment]].
** Matt may very well be right, since the phrase roughly means "the end of unhappiness". Pat's only reasoning behind the supposed insult is that "winter sucks".
*** In full context the 'end of unhappiness' bit comes after with the "made glorious summer by this sun of York" line, therefore calling him his 'winter of discontent' would probably still count as an insult.
* SpaceX: All over the place in ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2''. Space raves, space AIDS, space eyes, space future, and [[TheWikiRule space-wikis]].
** And in ''Catherine'' we get '''SPACE CONFESSIONALS'''.
** As well as in the "Duke Nukem Forever" Bloopers/Outtakes video, near the end, Pat refers to the area as "space-man" corridors in frustration.
** Pat introduces us to space badgers in ''MassEffect3''.
** In their ''RiseOfNightmares'' video, Pat refers to a Romani fortuneteller as a "space prostitute."
* SturgeonsLaw: Save [[CrossesTheLineTwice one game]], every indie game the friends played was crap.
** Also true in the sequel compilation, with one game emphatically getting the TBFP Seal of Approval, to the point they were playing the game in the beginning of their next video.
* StunnedSilence: Being that they're offscreen, it's fairly ambiguous, but there was a moment of silence during ''Kane and Lynch'' and ''Disaster: Day of Crisis'' which had both friends completely silent as opposed to their normal behavior, probably to play up how ridiculous the game was at that moment.
** There's another one during ''HeavyRain'', when in contrast to them talking loudly over the prologue, they sit silently and watch Ethan's sad life until Matt calls Ethan a loser.
** Another in ''Shadows of the Damned'': Matt hears a noise, then begins looking around for it. He turns the character to see [[spoiler:dozens of severed heads rolling down the hill toward him.]] Both guys watch in silence before quitting the game.
* SubvertedCatchphrase: Matt spends the entire ''CaptainAmerica'' video avoiding his "AMERICA!" catchphrase (He rarely even uses the character's full name) despite the insistence of Pat. [[spoiler: Until the end when he launches into an ''epic'' "AMERICAAAAAAAAAA!" [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome while Cap does a flying punch on a robot.]]]]
** Again in ''MetalWolfChaos''. Matt and Pat only say the word "America" three times, and two of those instances were during a conversation about the actual landmass.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Pat most certainly didn't die during the course of their ''ResidentEvil2'' Let's Play, and they most certainly didn't edit the video.
* TakeThat:
** From ''Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days'':
--->'''Patt:''' God, this is why ''All Points Bulletin'' isn't a fucking game anymore.\\
'''Matt:''' TooSoon.\\
'''Pat:''' ''*chuckle*'' No, no. Making fun of ''All Points Bulletin'' is not too soon.
** From ''Disaster: Day of Crisis'':
--->'''Pat:''' I'm gonna jump on his face. Ohhh, take that JasonStatham, ''Transporter 3'' was garbage!
** ''Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage'' has multiple take that's directed at KOEI:
--->'''Pat:''' So how's it control?\\
'''Matt:''' Uh, controls like a shopping cart, actually.\\
'''Pat:''' Oh KOEI! Consistent, at least!
** During the Xbox Live Indie Games video:
--->'''Matt''': We're in a gladiator arena in ''{{Halo}}'' armor fighting dinosaurs?
--->'''Pat''': This game is dogshit!
--->'''Matt''': At least it's better than fucking [[HaloODST ODST]].
** Upon seeing the LJN Toys logo before playing TrueLies:
--->'''Pat:''' Oh, ''fuck''!
** When Matt says ''{{Catherine}}'' is like ''IndigoProphecy'' if ''IndigoProphecy'' [[StoryToGameplayRatio was a game]].
** In ''Rise of Nightmares'':
-->'''Pat:''' Dude, where the fuck did you get a Kinect?
-->'''Matt:''' Uh... I was just kinda, you know, dumpster diving behind the deli, and someone had just thrown one out. So you know, why not?
-->(''later, upon seeing zombies'')
-->'''Pat:''' Oh, awesome, they locked fucking Kinect testers in here.
-->'''Matt:''' (as a Kinect tester) "Oh my god, I wasted so much money!"
** [[Film/{{Catwoman}} Halle Berry was the best Catwo]]-*punch*
* TedBaxter: Matt when they play ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', because he had been playing it for a while and this was Pat's first time. Pat quickly learns how to kick Matt's ass, and demonstrates that he actually knows who the characters are.
** Matt claims to know all about 1940s history when they play ''LANoire'', but he clearly doesn't.
* TemptingFate: Twice in ''Survival''. Matt wonders what's the point of shooting some birds; almost immediately afterwards, said birds attack him. Later, Pat the game is starting to get boring, then in the next scene a bear starts destroying an entire camp by itself.
* ThatCameOutWrong: During ''Gears of War 3'':
-->''After some windows that looked on a bunch of tentacles growing out of the ocean close''\\
'''Matt''': They say "Hey look at this thing" and the windows close like "Nuh uh".\\
'''Pat''': You only get a taste.\\
'''Matt''': You only get a taste of the tentacles... that sounded terrible.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Pat knows playing ''Videogame/{{Portal 2}}'' with Matt is going to be a pain.
-->'''Pat:''' Okay, let's do this, let's get this over with. Come on.\\
'''Matt:''' This is gonna be fun, right?\\
'''Pat:''' Okay, yeah yeah, the game is awesome. But you're...an idiot.
** Pat isn't impressed by the beginning of ''Survival'', either:
-->'''Pat:''' The first thing I see is a cursor on the screen and a character running towards the camera. [[SarcasmMode What a good sign of things to come!]]
* TimmyInAWell: A brief gag in ''Survival''.
-->'''Matt:''' Togo? What's that? Pat's stuck in a well? Well, I don't care.
* TooSoon: Pat does not think it's TooSoon to make fun of ''AllPointsBulletin'' during the ''Kane and Lynch'' video.
** Invoked again during the ''Demon's Souls'' video, just as a huge dragon appears onscreen with a bunch of villagers in its mouth :
-->'''Matt:''' I think he got his revenge on the developers of ''{{Lair}}''!\\
'''Pat:''' Too soon!
* {{Vaporware}}: ''Of course'' they're going to make jokes at the expense of ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'''s 14-year development time.
-->'''Pat:''' It came out!\\
'''Matt:''' No...\\
'''Pat:''' It came out!\\
'''Matt:''' Okay, you encoded something on a disc, and you put it in here to troll me.\\
...\\
'''Pat:''' Downloadable content?! ''They still didn't finish the whole game!''
* VideogameCrueltyPotential: If they can kill someone in a game, it's a safe bet they will.
** Matt goes particularly nuts during ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'', and eventually just starts punching out and stabbing everyone, culminating with telling Megan's mother about how her daughter died horribly and painfully followed by punching her in the face.
** Their video for ''VideoGame/ThePunisher''; unsurprising, given that's the entire point of the game.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Even though it says "Best Friends" in the title, they keep insulting each other every time they play together.
-->'''Pat:''' I'm dying again. I'm dying -- Stop calling me friend!
** Another example during ''Gears of War 3'':
-->'''Matt''': Is there any better screen than "Pat has died"?
* WallOfText: Pat's reaction to these is "[[PrecisionFStrike Fuck it]], don't care."
* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome: Spinning toilet paper, drinking from water fountains, and spinning chairs in the ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'' episode.
** Also, drinking OJ and carrying groceries in the HeavyRain episode.
* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotPolitical: Matt thinks ''VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce2017'' is Japan's commentary on the Iraq War. [[invoked]]
* WhyWontYouDie: Pat to [[VideoGame/{{Gun}} Betsy, the Whore of Steel]].
* YourMom:
** From the ''ResidentEvil4'' video:
-->'''Matt:''' Oh great, caves. I love caves.\\
'''Pat:''' Don't you like dark, moist places?\\
'''Matt:''' I like your mom's dark moist place.\\
'''Pat:''' How about I kill you?\\
'''Matt:''' How about no?
** Another good example comes from the ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'' episode:
-->(After Pat is poisoned and killed)\\
'''Pat:''' Aw, fuck!\\
'''Matt:''' Ahaha! Yeah, you're a real combat specialist!\\
'''Pat:''' Your mom is a fucking combat specialist.\\
'''Matt:''' What?\\
'''Pat:''' With my dick.

-->--'''Season 2 intro song'''[[hottip:*:Sung to the Green Greens Theme from {{Kirby}}]]
''[[http://www.youtube.com/show?p=LdnBaIw9t7M Two Best Friends Play]]'' is a WebOriginal comedy series found on the {{Machinima}}'s {{Youtube}} channel.
The series is a {{MST}} of sorts; two friends named Matt and Pat play video games, argue, and mock the game they are playing and each other. The series does not focus on the two friends; they weren't even named until the second season. According to the show's {{Facebook}} page, it started when The Switcher (Matt) invited his friend Snapshot King (Pat) over to play ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'' and record themselves taking their playthrough way too seriously. Besides that nothing is known about them; Matt ''sounds'' younger and enjoys LighterAndSofter games, and Pat ''sounds'' older and likes DarkerAndEdgier games, though based on the pictures on their {{Facebook}} page they look the same age.
Most videos goes two ways: either Matt and Pat play a bad game and ridicule the game and each other for suggesting that they play it, or they play a good game poorly and complain about how much the other one sucks at it. Either way we never see them complete the game, but that's not the point.
The videos are edited so the audience only sees highlights of their gaming session; they are around ten to fifteen minutes long. They also have a spin-off show called TBF: Funtime Adventures, an animated show about discussions the two have about games when not playing them.
More content can be found on the author's original channel [[http://www.youtube.com/user/TheSw1tcher here]], which has their original ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'' and ''SilentHillShatteredMemories'' videos, several mini-episodes, the episodes for the Super Best Friends Brawl spin-off (which involves Mat, Pat, and Woolie competing in local multiplayer games), and their full-length [[LetsPlay Let's Plays]]. The show's {{Facebook}} page can be found [[http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Two-Best-Friends-Play/193373957342411 here]].

----
!!Tropes this series has:
* ActorAllusion: In the ''CaptainAmerica'' video Matt and Pat stop in front of a portrait of Johann Schmidt and take turns wondering why [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Elrond]], [[TheMatrix Agent Smith]], [[Film/{{Transformers}} Megatron]], and [[VForVendetta V]] ([[ComicallyMissingThePoint and Red Skull]]) would have portraits in a German castle before running out of HugoWeaving movies they can remember.
** They also spend the majority of the ''PrisonBreak'' video referring to Lincoln and Burrows as [[Film/ResidentEvilAfterlife Chris Redfield]] and [[{{Blade}} Dracula]], respectively.
* AluminiumChristmasTrees: In their ''WWE All Stars" and ''WWF No Mercy'' videos, they use a custom wrestler named the Shockmaster who seems to be created to be as ridiculous as possible. In reality, there was a wrestler called the Shockmaster and he looked pretty ridiculous (though not to the extent Pat managed in ''All Stars'').
* AnalogyBackfire: Matt calls ''HeavyRain'' "the ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' of video games".
** In the ''PrisonBreak'' video, Matt called Tom Paxton "the [[SplinterCell Sam Fisher]] of video games".
* {{Angrish}}: In TBFP: ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'', [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jWsiyXoTz0 around 10:19]], Matt encounters a monster and "Wazz-a-BA-jivuh...Kmm-PAT!!"
* AntiClimax: During the final round of the [[VideoGame/{{Worms}} Worms 2: Armageddon]] video, Woolie finds a [[StuffBlowingUp Banana Bomb]], an item that provokes a BigYes from the now-spectating Pat and an OhCrap from the surviving Matt. Come the final turn of the video, Woolie has ten seconds to damage Matt enough to put him in the lead, and Pat urges him to use the Banana Bomb. He gets into position, throws it... [[spoiler: ...and it flies across the map, [[OhCrap hits a curve]], [[EpicFail flies back towards Woolie]], and [[CrowningMomentOfFunny detonates over his head]], all to the hysterical laughter of Matt and Pat.]]
* AscendedMeme: During their ''DeadRising2'' video, Matt made fun of an NPC named Anim's name, asking if it was a real name. In ''Dead Rising 2: Off The Record'', Frank West paraphrases this, saying "Is Anim even a real name?" They don't notice this when they play the game, though.
* AudienceParticipation: A week before the ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' video went up the friends put a message on their {{Facebook}} page telling them at what time on Friday they would be playing and inviting everyone to join. The online matches make up the middle part of the video. Ditto for ''SoulCalibur V''.
** During the ''Indie Games II'' vid, Pat tells everyone to put pictures of Basking Sharks on the Facebook fan page. In the next week's video, ''MassEffect3'' he urged the fans to stop because they did it far too much.
* AwesomeMcCoolname: [[GirlchanInParadise Kenpachi Ramasama]] from their ''{{Persona 4}}'' video.
* BerserkButton: One of the zombie files in LollipopChainsaw mentioned a teacher who flunked a student for being ginger. This pissed Pat off to no end.
* BewareTheNiceOnes: Despite Matt's preference for LighterAndSofter games, he is quick to dismiss FirstPersonShooter games that don't include shotguns. And then there's [[VideoGameCrueltyPotential his behavior]] while playing ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'', his body-stomping behavior in ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'', and his apparent delight in mutilating dead bodies in general.
** In season 4, Matt shows a tendency to [[BeatingaDeadPlayer teabag]]. [[ArsonMurderandJaywalking Not really a bad thing, but...]]
* BigBallOfViolence: Featured in the third version of the opening theme (introduced midway through season 2).
* BigNo:
** Pat does ''not'' want to chip in to buy the full version of ''Vampire Rain''.
** Matt's response to having to play ''ShaqFu''.
* BigWhat: Their reaction to Ocelot's meowing in ''MetalGearSolid3''.
* BigWordShout: [[spoiler:At the end of the ''CaptainAmerica'' video, Matt screams '''''"AMERICAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!"''''' as he makes Captain America jump at a Nazi robot.]]
* BlackBestFriend[=/=]BlackDudeDiesFirst: In the beginning of ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'' Isaac is being treated by a black doctor. Pat talks about how helpful this new best friend will be right before he's killed and mutated by a necromorph. Then humorously lampshaded a few minutes later.
-->'''Matt:''' Not a good day, my super best friend black guy, just totally--\\
'''Pat:''' Yeah, Franco really bought it.
** There's also their black best friend Woolie. Who 'died' first when fighting Daigo at EVO.
* BlackComedyRape: The discussion of Catherine raping Vincent in the ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}'' video.
* BlindIdiotTranslation: The "English" version of one of the Xbox Indie games they play, ''Legend of the Dragonflame Highschool''.
-->'''Matt:''' *reading aloud* YOU DO NOT HAVE THE VETO BECAUSE I HAVE KIDNAPPED MIYUKI OF YOUR YOUNGER SISTER.
* BondOneLiner:
** ''RiseofNightmares'' is full of them doing these, in response to nearly every single NPC's death.
** In ''Survival'', after killing a bear, Matt quips "Man, we '''barely''' got away from that encounter!"
* BootstrappedTheme: "Green Greens" was only used as the opening music for the pilot episode because they were playing a {{Kirby}} game, but it's been used since to open every other video.
* BrickJoke: Early on in the ''MortalKombatShaolinMonks'' video, they established that unlike some of the other games they have played co-op, they actually are working together and can't kill each other. Matt points out that they'll probably find a way to kill each other later. Sure enough, they did.
* BuffySpeak: Matt does a light version of this on occasion.
-->'''Pat:''' You don't even know what incognito means...\\
'''Matt:''' It means that people can't see me, with, their eyeballs.
** And later in that same game they discuss going into "sneaky-stab mode".
** In ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'', the word science gets abused. "Science it up. You're science-ing right now!"
* CallBack:
** Pat makes Matt play ''SilentHillShatteredMemories'' because Matt made Pat play ''[[VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn Epic Yarn]]''.
** Pat makes Matt play ''DeadRising2'' so they can fight some monsters that are actually monstrous, unlike the crappy vampires in ''Vampire Rain''.
** In the ''Dead Rising 2: Off The Record'' video, Matt brings up the fact that unicorns can be called ponies and says that Pat would know all about that, bringing up the fact that he had a WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic desktop at the end of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' video.
*** And in Funtime Adventures episode 1, you can see Celestia and Luna toys in a shelf behind Pat.
* TheCameo: [[spoiler: [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Derpy Hooves]]]] makes a quick appearance in the first episode of Two Best Friends Funtime Adventures.
* CatchPhrase: Matt is fond of yelling "America!" when he wins something or sees something patriotic.
-->'''Pat:''' ''Why do you keep saying that!?''
** Eventually, it gets to the point where when they play ''ResidentEvil4'', this conversation happens:
-->'''Matt:''' Invade America, will you!?\\
'''Pat:''' [[LampshadeHanging You're in their country!]]
*** Strangely enough, they actually avoid yelling "America!" during the ''MetalWolfChaos'' video, the most patriotic video game ever made. Maybe its because Matt would be yelling it every 10 seconds. Or maybe it's because the game basically does it for him.
** Pat's prepared response whenever Matt urges him to do something.
-->'''Matt:''' Hey, [verb] that [noun]!\\
'''Pat:''' Oh, I'll [verb] the ''shit'' out of that [noun].
*** This one is somewhat subverted with "Pick up that file!"
** They're both fond of describing awesome things (either for real or in SarcasmMode) as "bomb ass" and things that are exciting are referred to as "hype" as in "this is the hypest shit!" Pat also likes pronouncing "babies" as "babbies."
** "See ya later, fuckers!"
** Any sexual joke said by Matt is usually followed by [[DontExplainTheJoke "Get it? It's like sex..."]]
** "Wanna join my ''Bible Black'' club?"
** Pat going [[WhatTheHellHero "Why would you do that?!"]] whenever Matt does something befitting of a jerkass or just plain stupid.
* ChekhovsGun: At the beginning of ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'', Matt has trouble reading the control instructions that appear on the screen. Then at the end of the video, Matt listens to Pat [[ForTheEvulz who tells him to press X to make the parachute glide faster]], instead of reading the instructions on screen that say pressing X will make the parachute collapse.
* ColbertBump: ''T.E.C. 3001'' has gotten a fair bit of publicity thanks to their ringing endorsement of the game in the second Xbox Live Indie Games video, prompting the developers to publicly thank them.
* ComedicSociopathy: After a StunnedSilence as the protagonist of ''HeavyRain'' mourns the death of his son, Matt quips "Man, what a loser."
** In ''Gears of War 3'' Pat complements Dom's [[spoiler:[[BeardOfSorrow "Wife Killing Beard"]]]].
** When Matt runs into the first character in RiseofNightmares, the first thing both of them think is to try and beat her with a lead pipe.
*** After Matt gets scared after Pat's jump scare, Pat proceeds to mock Matt's terror.
* ContinuityNod:
** Matt speculates that [[VideoGame/DukeNukemForever Duke Nukem]] may be a TimeCop, repeating a running gag from the SNES video.
** During their review of ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'', an independent PC game, Matt points out that they haven't had the best track record with indie games, referring to their look at Xbox Live Indie Games.
** In the ''CaptainAmerica'' video, Matt thinks he can do the same attacks that Captain America can do in ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3''.
** In the ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' video, Matt sings the "science" song from the ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'' episode and repeats the "WE'RE GOING TO MAKE IT OUT OF THIS!" gag from ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2''.
** During ''{{Catherine}}'', Matt says that he once watched Bear Grylls eat sheep eyes.
** During the DeadIsland mini-episode, they [[ResidentEvil4 call the zombies]] [[NotAZombie "zambamboes" and "zimbies"]] a few times.
** During ''Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon'', Pat goes berserk and starts shooting Matt once the latter says that [[MortalKombat invisibility]] is stupid.
** Whenever something resembling a fetus is shown, they immediately assume it's some sort of sequel to ''Baby Maker Extreme''.
** Matt claims Pat will be an expert at ''Off the Record'' when he spots a couple of unicorn and pony heads, a reference to Matt discovering Pat's [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic desktop wallpaper]] in the ''[[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]'' video.
** Matt and Pat think the SassyBlackWoman they run into in ''Off the Record'' is the same SassyBlackWoman from ''[[VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution Human Revolution]]''.
** Matt explains the story of ''KaneAndLynch'' to Pat during the ''MetalGearSolid'' video like how Pat explained to Matt ''MetalGearSolid'' in the ''KaneAndLynch'' video.
* CovertPervert: Whenever Matt runs into a lady [=NPC=] in ''RiseofNightmares'', he hovers the hand icon over their chests or butts.
-->'''Pat''': Okay man, I wasn't exactly gonna ask or anything, but why won't you stop touching all the-*cut to next clip*
* ClusterFBomb: The friends swear all the time, usually in frustration, though Pat casually replaces other nouns with "shit".
** Here's a [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SI1UN8S6dQA compilation video]] of all their swearing between ''DonkeyKongCountryReturns'' and ''DeadlyPremonition''. It's fifteen minutes long.
* CriticalResearchFailure: Deliberately invoked. They play ''RedDeadRedemption'', but [[spoiler:gameplay shows that they're actually playing ''Gun'']], and the tags on the video list it as [[spoiler:''Call of Juarez'']]. This is more in-character than the creators making a mistake, since [[spoiler:they somehow switch over to ''Redemption'' at the end]].
* CurbStompBattle: When Matt or Pat (they are not sure who) invites their friend Woolie to play ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'' with them, he brings his own arcade controller and tears Pat to bits. The friends are not amused.
-->'''Woolie (as X-23):''' Yeah it's kind of unblockable when you're jumping in, and you're at level three.\\
'''Pat:''' Sh-shut up, shut up. Just get out.\\
'''Matt:''' Get out!\\
'''Pat:''' Get the fuck out!\\
'''Matt:''' Get ouuuuuut!\\
*cut to credits*
* DeadpanSnarker: Both of them are a couple of smartasses. For example, during ''[[FistOfTheNorthStar Ken's Rage]]'' when they are reading the move list:
-->'''Matt:''' The moves are probably super complicated.\\
''Goes to move list, normal attack is eight x's in a row''\\
'''Pat:''' Holy fucking shit are you serious?\\
'''Matt:''' Okay, let me write down what normal attack is.\\
'''Pat:''' Okay: x, x, x, x, x, x, x, x.\\
'''Matt:''' What was after the fifth x?\\
'''Pat:''' x, x, x.\\
'''Matt:''' Okay.\\
'''Pat:''' x.
* DistractedByTheSexy: Invoked almost exactly by name during the ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'' playthrough, in which Matt inadvertently kills Pat through the game's IntimateHealing mechanic.
-->'''Matt:''' You got distracted by our makeouts!
* TheDitz: Matt's naivete ranges from simply being misinformed, to childlike, to whatever brain-dribbling-out-his-ears stupidity was going through his head during ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}''.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: During the ''DisasterDayOfCrisis'' episode they watch a tower collapse in a manner similar to the World Trade Center. Matt asks Pat flat out if it seems familiar. Pat says it reminds him of ''VideoGame/BionicCommando'', [[MoodWhiplash then drinks a container of orange juice larger than the character's head]].
* DontExplainTheJoke: From the ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' episode on Matt displays a tendency to say "Oh, it's like sex" after any DoubleEntendre joke.
* DontThinkFeel: Matt suggest this during ''DonkeyKongCountryReturns''. Pat doesn't listen.
-->'''Matt:''' If you think we die.\\
'''Pat:''' What is up with you and saying that?\\
''Pat dies''\\
'''Matt:''' You thought!\\
'''Pat:''' Oh, you're right, I totally did! I thought about what a dick you are. ''(dies again)'' Fuck, I guess I was thinking it again!
* DoubleEntendre[=/=]ThatsWhatSheSaid: Pops up often.
** From the ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' episode:
--->'''Matt:''' Blow him! Blow him.... I mean, blow ''on'' him.
** In the ''Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage'' episode:
--->''Matt's getting his ass handed to him by Kenshiro''\\
'''Pat:''' You just took it all up in your face. Bet you're used to that too!
** This early joke from the ''Mortal Kombat Shaolin Monks'' episode:
--->'''Matt:''' It's so long.
--->'''Pat:''' That's what she said. [[DontExplainTheJoke About my dick]]. She said it about my dick.
--->'''Matt:''' I don't-
--->'''Pat:''' When she said that, she was talking about my dick.
* DroppedABridgetOnHim: Pat attempts to explain to Matt that Poison from ''StreetFighter'' isn't as woman as he thinks he is. Matt remains oblivious.
-->'''Pat:''' There's a penis in there!\\
'''Matt:''' ... [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Yeah, mine!]]
** And during the ''Catherine'' playthrough, Matt hits on [[spoiler: Erika]], although Pat doesn't tell him.
* DumbStruck: What happens to Matt at the end of the ''DonkeyKongCountryReturns'' video when he wastes their last life jumping over a cliff which he thought might have a token under it.
-->'''Pat:''' Why won't you say anythin-*cut to credits*
* DullSurprise: In the ''Captain America'' video, the two friends make fun of Captain America's default expression, which looks extremely bored.
* {{Eagleland}}: Matt likes to invoke Type 1.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In the original ''VideoGame/KirbysEpicYarn'' video, Matt and Pat's now-traditional roles were reversed, with Pat being the goofball and Matt being the straight man.
* EpicFail: Matt "failing everything" in ''DeadRising2''.
-->'''Pat:''' You failed everything! You have literally failed everything. The whole game is over now, but it'll still let you play it, to let you know how you fucked it up so bad.\\
'''Matt:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint At least I was wearing sweet cut-offs]].
* ExpospeakGag:
** During the ''[[PunchOut Punch-Out!!]]'' video, when Pat references a [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/stole-my-bike certain meme]]:
-->'''Pat:''' I think that black gentleman may have acquired that man's bicycle.\\
'''Matt:''' Do you now?\\
'''Pat:''' I do.
** When they see a bunch of people running for a helicopter in ''Gears of War 3'':
-->'''Pat''': Ohhhh, I feel like I should say something here.\\
'''Matt''': I think you're gonna have to [[Film/{{Predator}} get inside that helicopter with urgency]].
** Upon being attacked by a cougar in Cabela's Survival: Shadows of Katmai:
-->'''Pat:''' Oh, fuck! It's a cougar!
-->'''Matt:''' Get away from me you sexy older lady!
-->'''Pat:''' I don't have any use for your worn-out charms!
* EveryoneHasStandards: Despite his legendary poor taste in games, even MATT gets fed up with ''DrakeOfThe99Dragons'' VERY quickly.
* FalseReassurance: At the end of the ''MortalKombatShaolinMonks'', Matt proposes playing another MK game. Pat agrees as long as it isn't MortalKombat4. Matt assures him that it's not. [[spoiler:It's ''MortalKombatSpecialForces''. Cue trippy HeroicBSOD from Pat.]]
* FateWorseThanDeath: Pat says that if he ever finds the guy who made ''Alderman'', one of the XboxLiveArcade games, he's going to make him play it.
* FlatWhat: Pat's reaction to Matt beating the Chun-Li parry mode in ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' when he couldn't.
* {{Foreshadowing}}: During ''VideoGame/EarthDefenseForce2017'' video, the screen says that Matt has finished downloading ''Vampire Rain'', which is what they play the next week.
** Playing RE 4, one of them says, "That badass snake's going to bite your dick." [[spoiler: Guess what happens in the season finale.]]
** During the Dead Rising 2 tutorial, Matt reacts to all of the dying civilians. When he goes "PAT IS DEAD!" you hear Pat groan. It's funnier to watch now that we know their names.
** In the middle of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' video [[spoiler: Matt stops playing the game, goes on Ebay, and buys a copy of ''DrakeOfThe99Dragons''.]]
*** And at the end of ''Matt's Bomb-Ass Apartment Tour!'', [[spoiler: Matt gets an unseen original Xbox game in the mail...]]
** In the ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' video, they dub Elena's theme from ''VideoGame/StreetFighterIII'' over Jensen's "dancing". Next video, they play the new Online Edition of said game.
** During their Xbox Live Indie Games II video, after the "Colonies: Neociv" demo ends, Matt replies, "At least it was better than ''Mass Effect 3''", which is what they play next week.
* FriendshipMoment: Maybe?
-->'''Pat:''' Why do I even come over here?\\
'''Matt:''' Um, 'cause you're my friend.\\
''Pat groans''
* FunWithAcronyms: Matt and Pat decide that W.V.B.A. from ''PunchOut'' stands for "Women's Vietnam Bitch Army". Or "Battle Army", they can't keep it straight.
* GilliganCut: During ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'', when Chell is carrying Wheatley through GLaDOS' old chamber.
-->'''Matt:''' So nothing bad is going to happen?\\
'''Pat:''' Nothing bad is going to happen.\\
''Cut to GLaDOS crushing Wheatley''\\
'''Matt:''' Oh fuck! You said nothing bad was going to happen!\\
'''Pat:''' To you!\\
'''Matt:''' Nigel!
** And another during the ''[[PunchOut Punch-Out!!]]'' video when they are playing ''Super Punch-Out!!'' and Matt loses to Mr. Sandman:
-->'''Matt:''' Aw fuck, great, terrific! I got the Wii Punch-Out; that shit's got to be-\\
'''Pat:''' Everything for the Wii is for babies.\\
'''Matt:''' They're for babies! It's so easy it's just gonna-\\
''Cut to [[spoiler: Donkey Kong]] kicking Matt's ass''\\
'''Pat:''' Oh what the fuck?!
** And ''another'' when the two are picking out armor for ''Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon''.
-->'''Matt:''' What color should I take?\\
'''Pat:''' Pink.\\
'''Matt:''' ''No.''\\
'''Pat:''' Pink. Take the pink one. Take the pink color.\\
'''Matt:''' Why would I take pink?\\
'''Pat:''' Because it ''suits you.'' Take the pink one.\\
'''Matt:''' No, I won't take pink!\\
'''Pat:''' Take the little girly color! Take it!\\
'''Matt:''' Shut up!\\
''Cut to the two dropping into the game. One of them is wearing pinkish armor.''\\
'''Pat:''' Yeah, come on, Pinky!\\
'''Matt:''' Shut up! It doesn't matter which color I am.
* GotMeDoingIt: After getting annoyed at Matt calling Wheatley "Nigel" in the ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}'' episode, Pat accidentally calls him by that name and promptly gets more pissed off.
** They also have this quick exchange waiting for a multiplayer game in ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'' to load.
-->'''Pat:''' We all gotta sneak around, and be sneaky, and then stab.\\
'''Matt:''' Sneaky-stab mode?\\
'''Pat:''' Sneaky-stab m-...You fucking tricked me into saying that stupid thing.\\
'''Matt:''' I didn't trick you you just wanted to say it.\\
'''Pat:''' I kinda wanted to.
* GroinAttack: As Matt and Pat are quick to point out, the snakes in ''Man Vs Wild'' really do look like they're biting Bear Grylls in the groin.
* HeroicComedicSociopath: In the first match of ''SuperPunchOut'', Matt and Pat decide Mac must be some kind of monster for delivering a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown to Gabby Jay, an old man who hasn't won for 99 fights.
-->'''Matt:''' Shouldn't Mac feel a little bad about-\\
'''Pat:''' Just beat the shit out of that old man! He knew what he was getting in for!
* HiddenDepths: Despite his constant swearing, Pat is well-read and educated.
* HighlyVisibleNinja: Matt is the worst assassin ever in ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood''.
-->'''Matt:''' Blend! Blend! Blend with me! Someone blend with me!
** Matt also has numerous moments in ''MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater'', minor offenses starting with wearing high-profile American flag face paint or hiding in a cardboard box...in the middle of a forest.
-->'''Pat:''' You're gonna get detected, man.
-->'''Matt:''' No way, I never get detected!
-->''Cut to an enemy being alerted to Snake's presence''
-->'''Matt:''' Oh shit! Nothing, it's nothing!
* HilariousOuttakes: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=16MmibMnSFE Though you'll be hard-pressed]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BG373E1_d4 to find a difference between]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BszaePI0wi8 the outtake videos and the regular videos.]]
* HoYay: Innuendos, accidental or not, happen fairly often.[[invoked]]
-->'''Pat:''' You're not even on top of my leaderboard!\\
'''Matt:''' I don't wanna be on top of anything that has to do with you.\\
'''Pat:''' Augh... ''gross!''\\
'''Matt:''' Get it, it's like sex...
** And there's them fanboying over Cole Train in ''Gears of War 3''.
*** [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday "No homo."]]
** Directly invoked when playing ''VideoGame/KirbysReturnToDreamland'' upon discovering the ability to heal your companion by kissing.
-->'''Pat:''' [[PiggybackCute Get off]] so we can make out.
** In the ''[[MortalKombatShaolinMonks Shaolin Monks]]'' video:
--> '''Matt:''' Hey dude, come frolic in the blood with me, let's go.
--> '''Pat:''' I thought you'd never ask...
--> '''Matt:''' Oh, this reminds me of that one summer...
* HurricaneOfPuns: The ''RiseOfNightmares'' video features a pretty lengthy version of this.
** It's not just isolated to the Rise of Nightmares vid. In fact, a good bit of the humor is puns. This is usually done when someone dies in a unique way, like in Rise of Nightmares.
* InsurmountableWaistHighFence: Discussed numerous times when playing ''Captain America''.
-->'''Matt:''' I'm not super enough or soldier enough to go up these one foot tall sandbags! ''50 million dollars well spent!''
* InstantWinCondition: They suddenly beat the opening level of ''Survival'', and Pat wonders what the hell happened to the wolves that were attacking the protagonist a second ago.
* ItAmusedMe:
** In ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'' Pat informs Matt of a "sweet" achievement which involves scaling a rather large building and safely parachuting off of it. The endeavor takes a few hours and frustration on both sides, but ends with Matt succeeding. Until Pat tricks Matt into letting go of his parachute and killing himself. Also he didn't get the achievement because of the aforementioned death.
** In ''ResidentEvil4'', Pat tells Matt he can get gold and items from shooting the fish in the lake. The fish monster in the lake promptly eats him.
** This is more or less the reason Pat makes Matt play ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2''.
* JumpScare: They are really fond of evoking these, having done so in ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2'', ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'', and ''ResidentEvil4''.
** Pat pulls this on Matt during the ''Amnesia'' video, leaving to go get a snack and then waiting for Matt to run into a monster before jumping out and yelling "Boo!"
* JumpingTheShark: Invoked in a rather literal fashion in the ''Donkey Kong Country Returns'' episode:
-->'''Matt:''' Jump the shark! Jump the shark!
-->'''Pat:''' I don't wanna jump the shark! ...Aw, we jumped it.
** This was in reference to the series getting greenlit on the Machinima channel.
* JumpPhysics: Commented on in ''Survival''.
-->'''Pat:''' Dude, look at that jump! That's like a real human being's jump. ... No one in games jumps like this, this is totally legit.\\
''[One scene later, the game abandons realism and the character makes a massive leap across a chasm.]''\\
'''Matt:''' Whoooooa! ''That's'' a jump!\\
'''Matt and Pat, in unison:''' ''Fuck Bear Grylls!''\\
''[Even later]''\\
'''Pat:''' Man, he's like the mayor of fucking Jump Town with that shit.
* LargeHam: Sometimes they like to ham up a scene now and then.
--> '''Matt:''' Hey Pat, what's the prognosis here?
--> '''Pat:''' '''''MUUUUUUUUUURDDDDDDEEEEEEEEEER'''''.
** The ''HeavyRain'' video is them overreacting to the control introduction.
* LampshadeHanging: While playing ''{{Catherine}}'', the two wonder why somebody would want to be friends with people who treat them like shit all the time.
* LaughingMad: Pat breaks down in laughing anguish in ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'' when two alien enemies slowly drop down from a hole in the ceiling (with no footing and topped with an industrial fan) from out of nowhere.
* MemeticBadass: [[Invoked]]. The ''Man Vs. Wild'' episode has interstitials offering facts about Bear Grylls. Apparently, as a child, Bear Grylls learned from electric eels how to channel electricity through his body. He once nursed a family of mountain lions back to health until they were strong enough for him to kill and eat. He once met [[CthulhuMythos Cthulhu]], who ran away in terror.
* MismatchedEyes: Upon noticing that Togo, the sled dog from ''Survival'', has one blue eye and one green eye, Pat speculates that Togo must be [[FinalFantasyX Yuna]] reincarnated.
* {{MST}}
* MusicalChores: [[EarWorm It's gonna be fun when we solve science.]]
* NamelessNarrative: The two friends did not call each other by their names in the first season. The Season 2 intro reveals their names are Matt and Pat, which they then call each other at the end of the ''ResidentEvil4'' video.
* NoIndoorVoice: Shouting seems to be Pats normal way of communicating with Matt.
* NotTheFallThatKillsYou: Pat finds ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedRevelations''' use of a grappling hook to be slightly unrealistic:
-->'''Pat:''' Can I just point out that, if that was real, he's like falling off a fucking ledge, and sticks out a little hook? His arm's gonna come right the fuck off!
* NumberedSequels: Matt and Pat try really hard to figure out how to pronounce ''F.3.A.R.'', but eventually give up, figuring it's not worth their time.
* OffscreenInertia: Matt and Patt apparently spent an entire ''week'' playing ''T.E.C. 3001''
* OffscreenTeleportation: In ''Survival''.
-->'''Pat:''' How'd Togo get here?\\
'''Matt:''' Togo, you were down at the mountain, like at the base camp.\\
'''Pat:''' Dude, is that dog, like, [[QuantumLeap quantum leaping]]? Is that dog time-traveling?
* OneOfUs: It's revealed at the end of the ''VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent'' video that [[spoiler:Pat is a brony.]]
** They have also shown to know a lot about ''AGameOfThrones'' and ''WesternAnimation/AdventureTime''.
* OverlyLongGag:
** Matt taking so long to color the picture in ''Shattered Memories'' that Pat angrily storms out only to return to Matt still coloring.
** Trying to kill the invincible prostitutes in ''[[VideoGame/{{Gun}} Red Dead Redemption]]''.
--->'''Matt:''' Old Betsy, the [[ImplacableMan Whore of Steel]].
** Matt spinning the motorcycle around in ''Ken's Rage'' and to make Pat sick from the motion blur.
* PaperTiger: For all of his bluster and snarkiness, at around [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jWsiyXoTz0 8:55 in the video]], Matt too falls prey to the gnawing horror of [[VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent Amnesia]]. And a [[JumpScare jump scare]] from Pat.
* PatrioticFervor: Matt loves him some America. He even named his character in ''DemonsSouls'' "AMERICA".
** Not to mention his BigWordShout at the end of the ''Captain America'' video.
** However, according to their Youtube and Facebook accounts, [[CanadaEh they're Canadian]].
*** Pat sometimes lets out an "eh" at the end of his sentences. As for why they prefer America, they're [[AssassinsCreedRevelations on record]] for calling Quebec a "shithole".
* PercussiveMaintenance: Done as a joke in the ''Batman: Arkham City'' video: the video starts with gameplay from ''Batman: Dark Tomorrow'' and they hit the TV to change it to ''Arkham City''
* PreviouslyOn: Pat tries to explain to Matt the backstory for ''F.E.A.R.'' while ''F.3.A.R.'' does its own version, and makes the whole thing sound stupid and overcomplicated. Matt doesn't pay attention.
* PrisonRape: Continuously referenced and joked about in their ''PrisonBreak'' video. They found the showers and walked out instantly.
* RapidFireNo: Pat's reaction to Matt wanting to play ''Survival'' is this for half a minute, without letting Matt get a word in.
* RealMenWearPink: [[spoiler:Pat, despite favoring SurvivalHorror and M-Rated games more than Matt, has ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' wallpaper on his computer. Matt is weirded out by this.]]
* RealSongThemeTune: The intro and outro song is "Green Greens" from {{Kirby}}, even when the upbeat song [[SoundtrackDissonance does not fit with the game they are playing]].
** WithLyrics: Starting with the first episode of Season 2 until the ''Portal 2'' episode, turning it into an ExpositoryThemeTune. Lyrics are in the page quote.
* RunningGag:
** During their SNES playthrough, they repeatedly call back to the game they played at the beginning of the video, ''TimeCop''.
** Pat continuously brings up Reptile's invisibility while playing ''VideoGame/MortalKombat9'', whether he's actually onscreen or not. This has shown up in their Earth Defense Force, Skyrim, and Metal Gear Solid HD videos as well.
** More often then not, the episode will end with one of them screaming something.
** They love mocking bad jump animations.
** See you later, fuckers!
** Playing [[MetalGearSolid3 "Snake Eater"]] every time a character goes up a ladder.
** Repeated references to Pat's uncle being an absolutely horrible human being.
** Referring to black characters as Woolie.
** Although this isn't intentional, it still sort of counts: Matt's consistently awful navigational skills and his tendency to throw the fireaxe in the ''SilentHillDownpour'' LetsPlay.
** Stating on multiple occasions that they will never play ''{{Minecraft}}''.
* SarcasmMode:
-->'''Pat:''' Yay, here we go again. Having so much fun with this ''Vampire Rain''.
** And during ''VideoGame/{{Portal 2}}''
-->'''Pat:''' Alright, I'm sure this will turn out awesome. I'm sure I'll have loads of fun with you, playing this cooperative mode.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Matt and Pat sometimes quit the game they're playing in frustration.
** Matt RageQuits ''Amnesia'' when he's had enough of the scary.
** The two wordlessly quit playing ''ShadowsOfTheDamned'' when they get to [[spoiler: the staircase with heads rolling down it]].
** In ''{{Catherine}}'', when they find out they have to have another conversation with the unlikable Katherine they quit with a double "Nope, fuck you bitch!"
** Matt rage quits ''DrakeOfThe99Dragons'' because the game is too terrible even for him.
* SeinfeldianConversation: Once in a while.
** Pat explains to Matt the backstory to ''MetalGear'' during ''Kane and Lynch''.
** They chose to discuss the recently released 3DS and what kind of present to get for a friend during two separate cutscenes in ''Resident Evil 4'', neither of which they realized had quicktime events embedded in them.
** Matt's overanalyzation of ''Earth Defense Force 2017'' as Japan's response to the War on Terror.
** Almost the entire ''WWEAllStars'' video is them discussing the wrestler's careers.
** In ''Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon'', we hear a snippet of a conversation about Greek philosophy while Matt's playing the single-player game. Turns out Pat's a fan of the Socratic method, and thinks that Aristotle held back modern thinking by hundreds of years.
** Much of their ''ResidentEvil2'' playthrough is this, with them discussing various backstory elements of the RE-verse, including disdain for the SD Perry Novels and spin-off games, as well as Arnold Schwarzenegger's filmography, the merits of ''SystemShock'', and other various topics.
*** The ''SilentHillDownpour'' LetsPlay is like this as well, with offhand conversations of past ''SilentHill'' games, as well as the usual offtopic discussions, being common.
** Matt explains the plot of ''Kane and Lynch'' to Pat during the ladder sequence in ''MetalGearSolid3SnakeEater''.
* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Matt and Pat, respectively. Though calling Matt sensitive is a bit of a stretch.
* SidetrackedByTheGoldenSaucer: Matt really gets into the coloring segments of ''Shattered Memories'', to Pat's annoyance.
-->'''Pat:''' That's it, that's it, I'm outta here.\\
'''Matt:''' This is awesome.\\
'''Pat:''' Fuck you.\\
'''Matt:''' Well, I mean-\\
'''Pat:''' *slams door*\\
''Later when Matt has almost finished coloring in the entire page''\\
'''Pat:''' Okay, dude, I knew I blew up. I'm sorry, but- Are you still coloring this? Are you serious? You have been coloring this the entire time I've been gone? What's wrong with you? You're like, the worst person I have known in my entire life.\\
'''Matt:''' Well, this is fun.\\
'''Pat:''' ''God'', I hate you so m-We're no longer friends.
* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: In addition to being a full-on LetsPlay, in the ''ResidentEvil2'' videos Matt and Pat act a lot more normal. Matt isn't an idiot, and Pat is a lot less exasperated. This is lampshaded.
* SorryILeftTheBGMOn: Matt whistles along to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OUP_Z3iZPs "Life Is Beautiful"]] during ''DeadlyPremonition'', which drives Pat nuts. Then later the music starts up again, but it's only Matt's ringtone.
-->'''Pat:''' You put that shit as your cellphone ringtone?!
* SophisticatedAsHell: Pat's insults are normally restricted to "your mom" jokes and telling Matt he sucks, but on one occasion he calls Matt "[[Theatre/RichardIII the winter of his discontent]]". Matt [[InsultBackfire takes it as a compliment]].
** Matt may very well be right, since the phrase roughly means "the end of unhappiness". Pat's only reasoning behind the supposed insult is that "winter sucks".
*** In full context the 'end of unhappiness' bit comes after with the "made glorious summer by this sun of York" line, therefore calling him his 'winter of discontent' would probably still count as an insult.
* SpaceX: All over the place in ''VideoGame/DeadSpace2''. Space raves, space AIDS, space eyes, space future, and [[TheWikiRule space-wikis]].
** And in ''Catherine'' we get '''SPACE CONFESSIONALS'''.
** As well as in the "Duke Nukem Forever" Bloopers/Outtakes video, near the end, Pat refers to the area as "space-man" corridors in frustration.
** Pat introduces us to space badgers in ''MassEffect3''.
** In their ''RiseOfNightmares'' video, Pat refers to a Romani fortuneteller as a "space prostitute."
* SturgeonsLaw: Save [[CrossesTheLineTwice one game]], every indie game the friends played was crap.
** Also true in the sequel compilation, with one game emphatically getting the TBFP Seal of Approval, to the point they were playing the game in the beginning of their next video.
* StunnedSilence: Being that they're offscreen, it's fairly ambiguous, but there was a moment of silence during ''Kane and Lynch'' and ''Disaster: Day of Crisis'' which had both friends completely silent as opposed to their normal behavior, probably to play up how ridiculous the game was at that moment.
** There's another one during ''HeavyRain'', when in contrast to them talking loudly over the prologue, they sit silently and watch Ethan's sad life until Matt calls Ethan a loser.
** Another in ''Shadows of the Damned'': Matt hears a noise, then begins looking around for it. He turns the character to see [[spoiler:dozens of severed heads rolling down the hill toward him.]] Both guys watch in silence before quitting the game.
* SubvertedCatchphrase: Matt spends the entire ''CaptainAmerica'' video avoiding his "AMERICA!" catchphrase (He rarely even uses the character's full name) despite the insistence of Pat. [[spoiler: Until the end when he launches into an ''epic'' "AMERICAAAAAAAAAA!" [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome while Cap does a flying punch on a robot.]]]]
** Again in ''MetalWolfChaos''. Matt and Pat only say the word "America" three times, and two of those instances were during a conversation about the actual landmass.
* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: Pat most certainly didn't die during the course of their ''ResidentEvil2'' Let's Play, and they most certainly didn't edit the video.
* TakeThat:
** From ''Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days'':
--->'''Patt:''' God, this is why ''All Points Bulletin'' isn't a fucking game anymore.\\
'''Matt:''' TooSoon.\\
'''Pat:''' ''*chuckle*'' No, no. Making fun of ''All Points Bulletin'' is not too soon.
** From ''Disaster: Day of Crisis'':
--->'''Pat:''' I'm gonna jump on his face. Ohhh, take that JasonStatham, ''Transporter 3'' was garbage!
** ''Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage'' has multiple take that's directed at KOEI:
--->'''Pat:''' So how's it control?\\
'''Matt:''' Uh, controls like a shopping cart, actually.\\
'''Pat:''' Oh KOEI! Consistent, at least!
** During the Xbox Live Indie Games video:
--->'''Matt''': We're in a gladiator arena in ''{{Halo}}'' armor fighting dinosaurs?
--->'''Pat''': This game is dogshit!
--->'''Matt''': At least it's better than fucking [[HaloODST ODST]].
** Upon seeing the LJN Toys logo before playing TrueLies:
--->'''Pat:''' Oh, ''fuck''!
** When Matt says ''{{Catherine}}'' is like ''IndigoProphecy'' if ''IndigoProphecy'' [[StoryToGameplayRatio was a game]].
** In ''Rise of Nightmares'':
-->'''Pat:''' Dude, where the fuck did you get a Kinect?
-->'''Matt:''' Uh... I was just kinda, you know, dumpster diving behind the deli, and someone had just thrown one out. So you know, why not?
-->(''later, upon seeing zombies'')
-->'''Pat:''' Oh, awesome, they locked fucking Kinect testers in here.
-->'''Matt:''' (as a Kinect tester) "Oh my god, I wasted so much money!"
** [[Film/{{Catwoman}} Halle Berry was the best Catwo]]-*punch*
* TedBaxter: Matt when they play ''VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3'', because he had been playing it for a while and this was Pat's first time. Pat quickly learns how to kick Matt's ass, and demonstrates that he actually knows who the characters are.
** Matt claims to know all about 1940s history when they play ''LANoire'', but he clearly doesn't.
* TemptingFate: Twice in ''Survival''. Matt wonders what's the point of shooting some birds; almost immediately afterwards, said birds attack him. Later, Pat the game is starting to get boring, then in the next scene a bear starts destroying an entire camp by itself.
* ThatCameOutWrong: During ''Gears of War 3'':
-->''After some windows that looked on a bunch of tentacles growing out of the ocean close''\\
'''Matt''': They say "Hey look at this thing" and the windows close like "Nuh uh".\\
'''Pat''': You only get a taste.\\
'''Matt''': You only get a taste of the tentacles... that sounded terrible.
* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Pat knows playing ''Videogame/{{Portal 2}}'' with Matt is going to be a pain.
-->'''Pat:''' Okay, let's do this, let's get this over with. Come on.\\
'''Matt:''' This is gonna be fun, right?\\
'''Pat:''' Okay, yeah yeah, the game is awesome. But you're...an idiot.
** Pat isn't impressed by the beginning of ''Survival'', either:
-->'''Pat:''' The first thing I see is a cursor on the screen and a character running towards the camera. [[SarcasmMode What a good sign of things to come!]]
* TimmyInAWell: A brief gag in ''Survival''.
-->'''Matt:''' Togo? What's that? Pat's stuck in a well? Well, I don't care.
* TooSoon: Pat does not think it's TooSoon to make fun of ''AllPointsBulletin'' during the ''Kane and Lynch'' video.
** Invoked again during the ''Demon's Souls'' video, just as a huge dragon appears onscreen with a bunch of villagers in its mouth :
-->'''Matt:''' I think he got his revenge on the developers of ''{{Lair}}''!\\
'''Pat:''' Too soon!
* {{Vaporware}}: ''Of course'' they're going to make jokes at the expense of ''VideoGame/DukeNukemForever'''s 14-year development time.

'''Matt:''' No...\\
'''Pat:''' It came out!\\
'''Matt:''' Okay, you encoded something on a disc, and you put it in here to troll me.\\

'''Pat:''' Downloadable content?! ''They still didn't finish the whole game!''
* VideogameCrueltyPotential: If they can kill someone in a game, it's a safe bet they will.
** Matt goes particularly nuts during ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'', and eventually just starts punching out and stabbing everyone, culminating with telling Megan's mother about how her daughter died horribly and painfully followed by punching her in the face.
** Their video for ''VideoGame/ThePunisher''; unsurprising, given that's the entire point of the game.
* VitriolicBestBuds: Even though it says "Best Friends" in the title, they keep insulting each other every time they play together.
-->'''Pat:''' I'm dying again. I'm dying -- Stop calling me friend!

-->'''Matt''': Is there any better screen than "Pat has died"?

** From the ''ResidentEvil4'' video:
-->'''Matt:''' Oh great, caves. I love caves.\\
'''Pat:''' Don't you like dark, moist places?\\
'''Matt:''' I like your mom's dark moist place.\\
'''Pat:''' How about I kill you?\\
'''Matt:''' How about no?
** Another good example comes from the ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'' episode:
-->(After Pat is poisoned and killed)\\
'''Pat:''' Aw, fuck!\\
'''Matt:''' Ahaha! Yeah, you're a real combat specialist!\\
'''Pat:''' Your mom is a fucking combat specialist.\\
'''Matt:''' What?\\
'''Pat:''' With my dick.
