History YMMV / AwesomeSeries

** [[{{Irony}} ...]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L3UZbYf9tA8 ...]]

* MagnumOpusDissonance: Egoraptor claims that his best work is Sequelitis, due to both the time and effort he put into the episodes and the fact that he values an ability to make people think over an ability to make people laugh.
** Not that Sequelitis isn't appreciated; it's just much, ''much'' younger (barely a year old) and so far only has three episodes, one of which is only five minutes long.

* NonSequitur: The most common complaint of his recent PokeAwesome2 is that Arin takes pains to set up a final punch-line, and then the final punch line both makes absolutely no sense and is just a sex joke.

* {{Sequelitis}}: A vocal part of the fanbase consider the original PokeAwesome to be vastly superior to its sequel.

** Also [[FinalFantasyVII Awesome Fantasy VII]], which supposedly satires the game's constant focus on Cloud's (and Vincent's) {{Wangst}}. However, the game itself makes it clear that Cloud's angsting isn't supposed to be taken seriously, and that he needs to grow out of it.

* EvenBetterSequel: No one expected a sequel to Metal Gear Awesome...and it was [[IncrediblyLamePun awesome]].

-->'''Guts Man''': OOH YEAH, SHIT JUST GOT REAL!!

* InformedLoner: Egoraptor himself arguably. He's said in interviews that he often has problems with social interaction and making small talk but in person he [[TheUrkel certainly doesn't]] [[ProudToBeAGeek come off that way]].

** He seems to have gotten over it in recent years. See GameGrumps, where his social life is referenced every now and then. He's also engaged. [[TheGhost To a goose.]]

* BadassDecay - Almost always happens.
* CrazyAwesome - The chef in Awesome Man.

* MemeticMutation: "And then Capcom was like [[PrecisionFStrike 'Fuck!']]"
** Many Megaman related videos will have at least one poster saying "X... is pretty smart. Y... is pretty fucking smart. Z is FUCKING...GENIUS!!!"
** From the same video, a high-pitched "Megaman! Megaman!" (said by Roll acting like a hypothetical annoying ExpositionFairy, Egoraptor's point being that those games could teach the player without needing one) is now often quoted by Let's Players when unnecessary annoying exposition shows up in games.

* {{Wangst}}: Parodied in Awesome Fantasy VII.

*** Plus Sequelitis generally appeals to a narrower audience than his Awesome Cartoons. I mean, it's about games but there's more critical and intellectual discussion than there are jokes, usually.

--> '''Chef''': Take about 5 dozen eggs, start puttin' 'em in a bowl, mix [++'''DA FFFFFUCK'''++] outta them, and whadda you get? ''[[{{Beat}} (beat)]]'' '''''PENIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS!'''''

* EvenBetterSequel: No one expected a sequel to Metal Gear Awesome...and it was awesome.

** Thats way to ridiculous to be played strait.
* ShallowParody: The one for L.A. Noire is another one of the few. The premise of the joke is based solely around Phelps' sketches rather than jabs at the story or gameplay.

* {{Wangst}}: Parodied in Awesome Fantasy VII and Gears of Awesome.
