* AuthorsSavingThrow: Pat and Woolie's apology for mistaking how the DLC from the Jojo game works.
** Matt and Liam scrapping their ''Undertale'' save after killing several monsters, and restarting with a PacifistRun instead.
** After the backlash from their ''Blazblue'' video, they decide to play Persona 4 Arena Ultimax, another game requested for a long time, as an apology video.
*** Followed by a bigger example a year after said video: the Friends gave a fair Fisticuffs shake at ''VideoGame/BlazblueCentralFiction''. Sometime after the channel's end, Woolie did say on his stream that despite the negative stance the Zaibatsu took on it, he was more than willing to give the series a chance by learning more about it.
** Matt [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] and [[InvokedTrope invokes]] this trope during the "2nd Gig" VideoGame/DetroitBecomeHuman series, which he describes as "the apology LP," [[spoiler:due to the Friends making numerous mistakes and getting a DownerEnding in the original run]].

* FunnyAneurysmMoment:

to:

* FunnyAneurysmMoment:GoodBadBugs: Possibly due to their experience as quality assurance testers, the Friends just ''love'' running into any kind of bug, error or crash. On occasion, such as with their ''VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution'' playthrough, they also recall memories of amusing bugs they ran into during their QA days.
* GrowingTheBeard: They seemed to grow the beard when Woolie and Liam became permanent members of the group.
** Or arguably when their full LP's and channel started to gain prominence over their Machinima episodes. The latter are still funnier because of the condensed time and the admittedly scripted jokes, but the team arguably grew the beard when their LP's, videos and podcasts started to become interconnected with jokes crossing over from each format.
* HarsherInHindsight:



** The constant jabs at Paul Walker in the ''Fast and Furious Showdown'' video quickly became awkward when Walker died in a car crash only months after the video was made.
** A RunningGag during Rustlemania is to just assume every single legacy wrestler is "dead" simply just out of ignorance for not knowing what they've been doing post-wrestling career. A small few wrestlers that they joked about "being dead" (such as the Wrestling/UltimateWarrior) have since died in the years following those videos.

* CriticalResearchFailure:
** Their knowledge of comic books that aren't The Punisher or X-Men, especially DC comics like Superman and Green Lantern, can leave you wanting. During 2014's "The Amazing Superfriends" month-long superhero game marathon, it came to a head as they frequently referenced things that either didn't happen or were being misremembered. In the case of Green Lantern, it was abundantly clear that the group knew nothing about the character that they didn't gleam from Silver Age pictures floating around the internet.
** One of Matt and Pat's biggest criticisms of ''The Walking Dead Season 2'' is that it [[CreatorsPet put Kenny on a pedestal]], claiming that it constantly frames him as always in the right and his plans and solutions to problems as always the "best" option despite how horribly he treats everyone else in the cast except Clementine and being directly responsible for several preventable deaths. In particular, they rail against [[spoiler:Arlo shooting Clementine, claiming there was no reason he would do such a thing and it only happened to vindicate Kenny treating him like crap, ignoring (or forgetting) that Arlo was still clearly bitter over Clementine indirectly causing his sister's death]]. In reality, the game is [[GreyAndGrayMorality intentionally vague]] on whether Kenny or [[spoiler:Jane]] is in the right, and there are plenty of times where other characters, including Clementine herself, can question or even prevent his more ruthless plans and actions.



** Between them and the WebVideo/GameGrumps. Every so often, you'll find comments comparing the two, or outright accusing [=TBFP=] of ripping the Game Grumps off (despite [=TBFP=] [[CriticalResearchFailure predating Game Grumps by a year]]). Nevertheless, Jon of Game Grumps has admitted he was inspired by [=TBFP=] to make a two person show revolving video games. While Pat has [[https://www.facebook.com/tbfprulz/posts/473024186044052 expressed disappointment in Game Grumps]], both Matt and Pat are fans of Creator/{{Egoraptor}}, referencing his ''[[WebAnimation/AwesomeSeries Metal Gear Awesome]]'' and ''WebAnimation/GirlchanInParadise'' series on occasion. Regardless, the two groups seem to be on good terms, as evidenced in their 2013 E3 videos. And indeed, the two groups collaborated with each other, with the Grumps playing Dinotopia on the Zaibatsu channel, and the Best Friends playing Spider-Man 3 with the Grumps as part of Grumpcade.

** 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'').
** While playing various ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' games the two started listing various bizarre stories from the comics, all of which actually happened. The trope was fully invoked when Matt brought up how Peter's radioactive semen killed Mary-Jane in ''Comicbook/SpiderManReign'' only for Pat to declare it didn't happen.

** ''VideoGame/GodOfWarPS4'' dedicated many episodes to exploring the semi-open world and completing sidequests, which lead to the main plot progressing at a crawl. It doesn't help that the game is a {{Metroidvania}}, or that at certain points in the game, the available area to explore automatically expands. This led to the usual lineup of jokes such as "God of Snail", as well as the more LP-relevant "Side quest go up, but main quest go ''down''"[[note]]A reference to Pat's obsessive min-maxing of the Strength stat, to the point where he passes up decent equipment because they make Strength go down[[/note]].

** In the Season 2 playthrough of ''The Walking Dead'', Pat jokes about having Clementine punching a pregnant woman so hard in the stomach that the baby flies out, which he will use to distract nearby zombies. Also, taking the joke further, he says the baby will actually be glad to be out of her womb, referring to her as a "bitch".

** Fans unsure of how serious Pat can be at times don't really care much for him liking to joke about some of Nintendo's financial troubles, with some feeling that the fact Pat didn't grow up playing Nintendo consoles makes him a bit biased against the company in general. Some even find it to be a bit disrespectful he still continued to make the jokes in spite of the passing of former Nintendo president SatoruIwata and the fact Iwata cutting his own pay in half helped the company regain profitability in 2015.
** ''Franchise/{{Gundam}}'' fans were not happy when Woolie revealed he dismissed ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamIronBloodedOrphans'' after only two episodes because he felt it was becoming just another ''Anime/MobileSuitGundamSEED'' and criticizing the show for being "kiddy". Fans of the former agree that it's one of the darker settings Gundam has had, especially with a certain scene in the third episode. However, he was not incorrect in pointing out the relative lack of gray morality by displaying stereotypical villains and the inherently tropey nature of the work. Which is something Gundam SEED definitely did.

It later turns out that they were stopped by police when a person saw them sneaking around at night with (toy) guns, but thankfully nothing bad came of it.

No real life examples apply for Base Breaking Character


* BaseBreakingCharacter:
** Woolie got early criticism when he first appeared, as some fans considered him unfunny and that the more friends, the more difficult it was to interact. Also, detractors often cite him taking too much time to finish the game.
** To an extent, Pat. Some fans think his temper tantrums are hilarious and the best part of the show. Some see him as too highly opinionated and that he comes across as a jerk to people that enjoy games he doesn't. And some just don't like the fact that he 'fakes' surprise to events in games he's already beaten and knows what's going to happen (biggest example being Yakuza 4, which he's beaten around 8 times according to him). As of late, his plot predictions and theories, and occasional difficulty in playing games - although this tends to specifically relate to SOMA, which is partly a puzzle-based game despite his disdain for that genre - has also earned the ire of fans - although some have come to defend him on his plot predictions, pointing out that in the instance of Metal Gear this is a series where nearly anything ''can'', ''will'', and ''has'' happened.
** Liam has currently taken over the place as the most disliked friend for a number of reasons: originally when he was introduced, people enjoyed him for his high skill level, hilarious speaking patterns and obviously false egotism, and his ability to inject life into conversations by playing devils advocate sometimes so that all the convo's aren't one-sided, all three of which began in his introduction in Metroid Fusion where he did a pretty bang-up job of playing the game. However, with the advent of Super Despair Girls, MGSV, AND Star Fox Adventures, the audience has begun to dislike Liam for these same reasons: his high skill level leads to large levels of overconfidence, which in turn causes him to ignore game mechanics ''in the game he's playing'' as it's "beneath" him, like the timed attacks in Mario RPG. His false egotism has now been replaced with actual egotism, and many fans have begun to point out his constant narcissism as unfunny and kind of rude. Lastly, his constant devil's advocate playing has gone to levels where it's obvious that he actually ''hates'' the thing he's advocating for, but chooses to anyways because he thinks it will lead to a more interesting conversation, when not every conversation needs to be an argument. Overall, Liam's biggest flaws have become front and centre when he's at the helm of the majority of the LP's on the channel, perhaps the biggest of which are in the MGSV LP.
** Matt has become a BaseBreakingCharacter. While most people enjoy his jokes and interactions with other friends, some think Matt tends to bring any other members of the Zaibatsu down, ruin a good joke by repeating it several times per minute and running it into the ground, crack jokes during emotional moments that other members of the Zaibatsu are emotionally invested in, and he wouldn't shut up during other situations like that, to say nothing of his DSP-like tendencies to miss and/or ignore obvious things. Also, he apparently is burnt out by the years of making content, so he tries just to get over with the game he's playing sooner rather than enjoy it.

* BaseBreakingCharacter:
** Woolie got early criticism when he first appeared, as some fans considered him unfunny and that the more friends, the more difficult it was to interact. Also, detractors often cite him taking too much time to finish the game.
** To an extent, Pat. Some fans think his temper tantrums are hilarious and the best part of the show. Some see him as too highly opinionated and that he comes across as a jerk to people that enjoy games he doesn't. And some just don't like the fact that he 'fakes' surprise to events in games he's already beaten and knows what's going to happen (biggest example being Yakuza 4, which he's beaten around 8 times according to him). As of late, his plot predictions and theories, and occasional difficulty in playing games - although this tends to specifically relate to SOMA, which is partly a puzzle-based game despite his disdain for that genre - has also earned the ire of fans - although some have come to defend him on his plot predictions, pointing out that in the instance of Metal Gear this is a series where nearly anything ''can'', ''will'', and ''has'' happened.
** Liam has currently taken over the place as the most disliked friend for a number of reasons: originally when he was introduced, people enjoyed him for his high skill level, hilarious speaking patterns and obviously false egotism, and his ability to inject life into conversations by playing devils advocate sometimes so that all the convo's aren't one-sided, all three of which began in his introduction in Metroid Fusion where he did a pretty bang-up job of playing the game. However, with the advent of Super Despair Girls, MGSV, AND Star Fox Adventures, the audience has begun to dislike Liam for these same reasons: his high skill level leads to large levels of overconfidence, which in turn causes him to ignore game mechanics ''in the game he's playing'' as it's "beneath" him, like the timed attacks in Mario RPG. His false egotism has now been replaced with actual egotism, and many fans have begun to point out his constant narcissism as unfunny and kind of rude. Lastly, his constant devil's advocate playing has gone to levels where it's obvious that he actually ''hates'' the thing he's advocating for, but chooses to anyways because he thinks it will lead to a more interesting conversation, when not every conversation needs to be an argument. Overall, Liam's biggest flaws have become front and centre when he's at the helm of the majority of the LP's on the channel, perhaps the biggest of which are in the MGSV LP.
** Matt has become a BaseBreakingCharacter. While most people enjoy his jokes and interactions with other friends, some think Matt tends to bring any other members of the Zaibatsu down, ruin a good joke by repeating it several times per minute and running it into the ground, crack jokes during emotional moments that other members of the Zaibatsu are emotionally invested in, and he wouldn't shut up during other situations like that, to say nothing of his DSP-like tendencies to miss and/or ignore obvious things. Also, he apparently is burnt out by the years of making content, so he tries just to get over with the game he's playing sooner rather than enjoy it.

** Liam became this in the ''VideoGame/MetroidFusion'' playthrough. When he left for four episodes, a good portion of the comments were asking "Where's Liam?", and there was much rejoicing when he returned.
** ''VideoGame/MarlowBriggsAndTheMaskOfDeath'' quickly won Pat, Woolie and Liam over (Matt had tried it the day before, he was already impressed). A ''VideoGame/GodOfWar'' clone that runs on RuleOfCool. Almost every video afterwards has comments begging for a full play through that eventually came in 2018

* PlayAlongMeme:
** When Liam departed from the Best Friends Zaibatsu to focus on his own solo channel, he asked Best Friends-related sites (like the Facebook group and the subreddit) not to link to his solo videos. In addition, since Liam appeared in the intro for the Best Friends sub-series ''Saturday Morning Scrublords'', all future episodes had him edited out ([[StylisticSuck very awkwardly, for laughs]]). The fandom ran with that, pretending that Liam has been completely {{Unperson}}ed and can only be referred to as [Redacted] now.
** Matt and Pat loved talking about Woolie behind his back and inventing "lore" about him whenever he wasn't present for a video. Sometimes they'd take real events and exaggerate them into absurdity; other times they'd invent "facts" from scratch. The fandom took all of this as the gospel truth, interpreting Woolie as a compulsive liar, a habitual pie thief, and someone who killed a man while playing a high school football game.

** Woolie makes a number of jokes to this effect in their ''VideoGame/DmCDevilMayCry'' playthrough. He especially rips into the infamous scene where Vergil fires a rifle through Lilith's torso, killing her unborn child; calling it a ".50 Caliber coat hanger" and wondering if Plan B was written on the bullet.

A prime example of this is Nevara "Pockets" Chaar from the KOTOR LP, whose fall to the Dark Side was less a fall and more a straight up ''belly flop''.

** RAGE has been seen to slowly become more of a BaseBreakingCharacter. A majority enjoyed that he was the Primary focus of Def Jam: Fight for New York and added a fun Character to collection of SBFP. Then it started out as a shift in focus that soon eclipsed that of Zubaz, one of the team's characters.

** One of Matt and Pat's biggest criticisms of ''The Walking Dead Season 2'' is that it [[CreatorsPet put Kenny on a pedestal]], claiming that it constantly frams him as always in the right and his plans and solutions to problems as always the "best" option despite how horribly he treats everyone else in the cast except Clementine and being directly responsible for several preventable deaths. In particular, they rail against [[spoiler:Arlo shooting Clementine, claiming there was no reason he would do such a thing and it only happened to vindicate Kenny treating him like crap]]. In reality, the game is [[GreyAndGrayMorality intentionally vague]] on whether Kenny or [[spoiler:Jane]] is in the right, and there are plenty of times where other characters, including Clementine herself, can question or even prevent his more ruthless plans and actions.
