| 9 | ->''You done '''fucked''' it up!'' |
| 10 | |
| 11 | A gamer who lives on a spaceship and possesses an off-the-wall {{review}}ing style and a ''mite'' too much energy, Jose Antonio "Angry Joe" Vargas got his start by submitting a video review for ''VideoGame/ArmyOfTwo'', giving constructive criticism that was surprisingly what the developers really wanted to hear. Angry Joe now does reviews and other videos on "[[https://www.youtube.com/user/AngryJoeShow/ The Angry Joe Show]]" via Website/YouTube and his own [[http://www.angryjoeshow.com website]]. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Back in November 2010, he and the other video game segments of [[Website/ChannelAwesome That Guy With the Glasses]] were spun off onto their own separate website, "Blistered Thumbs", with Joe serving as the site's executive leader, becoming a major contributor. When Blistered Thumbs eventually shut down in April 2018, Joe began focusing on managing his own site. He is currently a member of Creator/{{Polaris}}. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | The Angry Joe Show is comprised of the following segments: |
| 16 | |
| 17 | * '''Angry Reviews''': The main crux of the show, Angry Joe performs a short skit about a video game with his cohorts before presenting a detailed, scripted monologue about the game and his thoughts on the title, interspersed with additional skits and videos of him and his friends commenting on segments of the game during their live-streams. The review ends with Joe awarding the game a rating between one ("WTF?!") to ten ("Legendary"). If a game exceeds his expectations, he will give it a "Badass Seal of Approval"; conversely, games that have disappointed him and/or are abyssmal will be labeled as an "EpicFail". |
| 18 | ** '''Extended Review Discussions''': Certain games will have Joe and his team deliver a follow-up roundtable conversation about a title that Joe could not fully cover in its respective Angry Review. Joe's friends will also give their own personal rating on the game, using Joe's one-to-ten format. |
| 19 | ** '''Rapid Fire Reviews''': A more traditional video game review with or without the skits (and at a shorter length), one of Joe's team members will do a voiceover discussing a title that was not given an Angry Review. The reviewer will score the game on a one-to-ten basis. |
| 20 | * '''Movie/TV Reviews''': Similar to the Extended Review Discussions, Joe and his companions sit down to review films and television series they have recently watched together. |
| 21 | * '''Angry Rants''': Joe raves against particular on-goings in video games (such as egregious {{Microtransaction}}s), films and television. His team may or may not show up in these rantings. |
| 22 | * '''Angry Joe Show News''': Joe and his friends discuss the biggest news currently coming out of the video game industry. |
| 23 | * '''TopTenList''': Joe presents a list on video games that he's most excited about for the following year, the best, worst and most disappointing games in the current year, top controversies from the industry during the year, why upcoming games have his attention and why previously released games weren't to his standards. |

| 425 | ---- |
| 426 | !!Joe and his videos provide examples of: |
| 427 | |
| 428 | * {{Angrish}}: AJ indulges in this from time to time. |
| 429 | ** For instance, he starts freaking out during a ''[[TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons D&D]]'' game. |
| 430 | --->'''Joe:''' ''What?!'' Did you--?! You just--! You killed--! What the ''fuck'' did you do that for?! |
| 431 | ** And in his ''VideoGame/UmbrellaCorps'' livestream, he goes into a brief, unintelligible rage when he discovers he has to do the same three tasks he did in the last level...''in the same map''. |
| 432 | --->'''Joe:''' ''It's the same fucking map?'' [[{{Padding}} The same fucking map DOING THE SAME FUCKING THING?!]] '''''YOU PUT TWO OF THEM RIGHT BY BYEATAUGHTEKUDINAPADABUT EFFORT INTO THIS FUCKING GAME!!!!!''''' |
| 433 | * AngryFistShake: |
| 434 | ** "''Damn you, Chick-Fil-A!''" |
| 435 | ** And again in his VideoGame/DragonsDogma review, after the game somehow transports his friend, who had been taking a shower at the time and is thus naked, into his living room. |
| 436 | ** With both hands when parodying the fan reaction to ''VideoGame/DMCDevilMayCry''. |
| 437 | * ArchEnemy: Corporate Commander. This is even lampshaded in his ''[[VideoGame/MaxPayne Max Payne 3]]'' review. |
| 438 | * AtomicFBomb: Near the end of his review for ''VideoGame/{{Mindjack}}''. |
| 439 | ** One of particular note is his ''Iron Man 2'' review... which only bleeps out the middle third. |
| 440 | ** [[CurseCutShort Cut Short]]: His video on the forthcoming 3D re-release of the ''Franchise/StarWars'' films begins with one. |
| 441 | ** [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony's]] guest appearances during the ''VideoGame/AliensColonialMarines'' review largely consisted of him yelling "Bullshit!" increasingly more angrily. |
| 442 | ** Joe's vlog about [[TrailersAlwaysSpoil the much-maligned second trailer for]] ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' contains some of these as [[spoiler: Joe rants about the use of Doomsday.]] |
| 443 | ** Joe unleashes the '''''absolute holy grandmother''''' of ''ALL'' Atomic F-Bombs when ''VideoGame/NoMansSky'' crashes after a 12-hour playthrough. You can see it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2-x5c7MJ88 here]]. (WARNING: You might not want to wear any headphones.) |
| 444 | * AuthorAppeal: Joe '''''loves''''' [[RhythmGame dancing games]]. |
| 445 | -->'''Joe:''' What's that!? You think this is a game? This isn't a game! It's the way of life! |
| 446 | * BadassInANiceSuit: Parodied in his review of VideoGame/Yakuza0 with Joe dressed as Kiryu and Other Joe as Majima. |
| 447 | * BadBadActing: Other Joe isn't really an actor, and doesn't try to be. It's pretty funny seeing him in contrast to the LargeHam of Angry Joe. |
| 448 | * BaitAndSwitch: |
| 449 | ** For his review of ''Film/StarWarsTheForceAwakens'', Joe takes off his helmet, revealing a displeased look. Most viewers expect him to say 'You done fucked it up!' as usual. Nope, he says 'You done did good.' instead. |
| 450 | ** In his "Top 16 WORST Games of 2019", Joe gives "Eternity: The Last Unicorn" the number one spot, then reveals that that spot actually went to ''VideoGame/Anthem2019'' like everyone expected. |
| 451 | ** Joe managed to pull one at the start of the review for ''VideoGame/AliensFireteamElite'', down to the exact expression of utter disgust, right before he exclaims "You ''didn't'' fuck it up!" He even lampshades it shortly after in reference to his previous review of the much-maligned series entry ''VideoGame/AliensColonialMarines''. |
| 452 | * BerserkButton: |
| 453 | ** Try to make Joe watch a movie in 3D. What sets Joe off about 3D is the [[MoneyDearBoy surcharge added on to the price of a movie ticket]] as well as its improper implementation (e.g. colors are too dark, motion effects that are too fast, etc.). However, he will praise 3D visuals when they are executed well, such as the slow motion effects in ''Film/{{Dredd}}''. |
| 454 | ** ''SONIC FREE RIDERS!'' The entire review is one giant tangent about how horrible it is. |
| 455 | ** ''VideoGame/{{Mindjack}}'' sure as hell came close to outsuckying ''SFR'' for him, and while ''SFR'' could be given a pass for being a bad implementation of new technology, ''Mindjack'' is in a firmly established genre, which has no excuse. |
| 456 | ** ''Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}}: [[TheProblemWithLicensedGames Sanctum of Slime]]'' made Joe so unbelievably mad that, instead of just doing a review, he first did a Let's Play to show just how bad the game is, and THEN he did an angry review. |
| 457 | ** ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' and its ending. So bad, that Joe had to write a separate video, detailing the main reasons why he thinks it sucks so bad; and to further hammer in his distaste for the ending, the video was very clearly Joe Vargas speaking & not the Angry Joe persona.[[note]]He admits though that the rest of the series, and 90% of ME 3 is still damned good[[/note]] Also, keep in mind that he highly praised the extended cut for pretty much solving most of the complaints everyone had, stating that it seems like the developers really took the time to listen to the fans and give them what they wanted. |
| 458 | ** In his ''''Comic Jumper'''' review, do ''not'' make fun of his mustache or else you're in a beatdown, as Bizarro Joe learned the hard way. |
| 459 | ** Joe himself has specifically stated that he despises Capcom's DLC practices, and the increasingly common codes required for online play. |
| 460 | *** On-Disc DLC in general...and bad DLC. See below for one game he ALSO complains about having it. |
| 461 | ** Bad Platform/{{Kinect}} games, particularly those that require the player to lean, an action which the even the (supposedly) improved Xbox One Kinect can't pick up. |
| 462 | ** Evil Superman's "[[Film/SupermanII Kneel before me]]", victory pose. So far its the only thing Joe dislikes about ''VideoGame/InjusticeGodsAmongUs''. |
| 463 | ** He's never liked online passes and despises things that prevent used games from being played/sold easily, so he completely blew his stack when he heard that the Platform/XboxOne charged a fee for disc-sharing. Although he's calmed down about it now since it's been confirmed that there is no fee for disc-sharing. |
| 464 | ** ''VideoGame/RideToHellRetribution'' infuriates Joe for being utterly terrible not because of glitches or bugs or being incomplete, but for simply being ''bad'', with a boring story, lackluster voice acting, shoddy sound production, low-res textures, practically nonexistent enemy AI, uninspired quick time events, and very disturbing sex scenes (in addition to being poorly animated, many occur ''immediately'' after saving the girl from danger). |
| 465 | -->'''Angry Joe:''' This thing has nothing to offer ''ANYONE!'' |
| 466 | ** As of Total War: Rome II, we can add overly-streamlining a game to the detriment of strategic play, especially when it involves removing features. |
| 467 | ** [[Comicbook/{{Warrior}} Nobody]] [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment rapes Santa]] [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall on his watch.]] |
| 468 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JQfHdasuWtI His rant about the copyright marks against his most successful videos]]. He also states that if his next review is flagged by another copyright claim, he'll show Youtube how angry he can really be |
| 469 | ** ''Rambo: The Video Game''. Joe hates, ''hates'' this game for representing everything wrong with licensed games: its horrid, outdated gameplay, its game-crashing bugs, the [[FakeDifficulty absurdly hard]] final level, and the fact that aside from said level, the total gameplay time was only ''two hours''. The only reason why he only rated it a 2/10 instead of a 1 was because it made him laugh at how bad it was, although he questions if it was good for his health, as evidenced by his degrading mental state playing the game. |
| 470 | --> Angry Joe: Rambo: The Video Game has NO reason to exist! '''NONE! WHATSOEVER!''' |
| 471 | ** Entries in previously multiplatform franchises becoming exclusive to one system, something he's ranted about with ''VideoGame/RiseOfTheTombRaider'' being (initially) exclusive to the Xbox One, ''VideoGame/StreetFighterV'' being exclusive to the [=PS4=] console-wise, and (in an unposted video), ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta 2}}'' being exclusive to the Wii U, although he backed off after he learned that if it wasn't for Nintendo, Platinum Games wouldn't have been able to make it. |
| 472 | ** ''VideoGame/{{Fable III}}'' Got Joe so mad at its dissapointment he listed ''32 reasons'' why he hates it and thinks it sucks. He never even bothered to give it a review. |
| 473 | ** Creator/{{Nintendo}}'s [=anti-YouTuber=] policies. See TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and TranquilFury for more details. |
| 474 | ** If a video game has {{Microtransactions}} of any kind, it will lose points in an Angry Review, no exceptions, ''especially'' if they charge for mundane things like a color palette. In fact, it has become a meme for Joe to freak out whenever he sees the color blue monetized in games after an egregious $100 price tag for a blue-color weapon skin in ''Valorant''. |
| 475 | --> Angry Joe: What is that? WHAT IS THAT!?!??!?!? Is that...... is that fucking blue????? IS THAT FUCKING BLUE?!?!? |
| 476 | * BigBad: Corporate Commander. |
| 477 | * BigBadWannabe: Demon Joe. As Corporate Commander put's it in the ''Ride to Hell'' review: |
| 478 | -->Never send a B-Teamer to do the supervillain stuff! |
| 479 | * BigNo: |
| 480 | ** In his ''[[http://angryjoeshow.com/2010/07/ufo-et-review/ UFO: Extraterrestrials review]]''. Complete with slow motion. |
| 481 | ** After losing VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 against WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic. This is followed by a BigYes from Joe and a BigNo from The Critic when he beat him with his new controller/coffee table. |
| 482 | ** His reaction to realizing that he's been set up in ''WebVideo/SuburbanKnights'' starts out as a RapidFireNo that culminates into a big one. |
| 483 | -->Joe: "'''NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! Nooo! Nooo! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!'''" |
| 484 | ** Realizing it's Sunday, so Chick-Fil-A is closed. |
| 485 | ** He lets out the Darth Vader one when seeing the dance mode in Kinect Star Wars. It even blows up Admiral Ackbar's ship. |
| 486 | ** He gave out such a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMCS-xOW7ic huge]] one in his ''TabletopGame/BloodBowl'' match against {{WebVideo/Wowcrendor}} when he rolled 3 Attacker Downs that Crendor gave him the Broken Microphone Award. |
| 487 | ** His reaction to ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta 2}}'' being a Platform/WiiU exclusive. |
| 488 | ** He gave one of these in his attempt to stream his playing of the PC version of ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamKnight'' when the game crashed. [[PortingDisaster Again]]. |
| 489 | ** During the ''VideoGame/FarCry4'' co-op when he learns that his pet elephant was killed. |
| 490 | ** Joe's vlog about [[TrailersAlwaysSpoil the much-maligned second trailer for]] ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' has this in the description, and he does yell some [[spoiler: TheReveal of Doomsday.]] |
| 491 | ** He lets one loose at the beginning of his [[spoiler:Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice]] review. It even pans out of the Earth as he yells it. |
| 492 | ** In the ''Power Rangers Mega Battle'' review he lets out a long drawn out BigNo for nearly 30 seconds after learning that the Megazord boss fights were nothing but light gun shooting and quick-time event sections. |
| 493 | * BigWordShout: "GOOOOOOOOOOOO!" in TheStinger. |
| 494 | * BileFascination: InUniverse; warned his fans ''not'' to do this with ''Film/TheLastAirbender''. |
| 495 | -->[[NoJustNoReaction "No...]] ''[[NoJustNoReaction no.]]''" |
| 496 | * BleepDammit: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36AcJ8YlrhE&t=2m12s FU***UCK]] |
| 497 | ** "People that are rating [[VideoGame/WatchDogs it]] 0, 1, 2, 3 are extremely dishonest. They're little *** *** *** *** fuckers, okay?" |
| 498 | * BodyHorror: Playing {{Videogame/Brink}} cause Joe's face to become horribly distorted in the same art style as the game characters. He begs Other Joe to [[IWillOnlySlowYouDown save himself and run away]]. |
| 499 | * BoisterousBruiser: Especially in crossovers with other TGWTG contributors. |
| 500 | * {{Bowdlerise}}: See GoshDangItToHeck below. |
| 501 | * BrokeTheRatingScale: Almost. He ''wanted'' to give ''VideoGame/CallOfDutyAdvancedWarfare'' a score of "Creator/KevinSpacey out of 10". Instead, he laments that it's not an actual score on his scale and gives the game a 6 out of 10. |
| 502 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: Joe may be hammy, crazy, and more energetic than a room full of five-year-olds, but he's great at analyzing games and movies and providing insightful criticism. |
| 503 | * ButtMonkey: Other Joe. |
| 504 | ** Angry Joe can be this, too, when with the other TGWTG reviewers. |
| 505 | * TheCameo: He's the only person who can give [[WebVideo/AtopTheFourthWall Linkara]] a run for his money in terms of appearing in other people's videos. |
| 506 | ** In his ''Anime/DragonBallZ: Kinect'' review, Creator/{{Lanipator}} makes a special (voice) appearance as [[WebVideo/DragonBallAbridged Vegeta]]. |
| 507 | -->'''Saiyan!Joe:''' His power is... ''over 9000!!!''\ |
| 508 | '''Vegeta:''' (offscreen) [[HeyThatsMyLine That's MY schtick]], you inferior assclown! |
| 509 | * CannotTellFictionFromReality: Joe plays so much ''Skyrim'', he thinks he's a knight, and attacks Corporate Commander... with a broom and a helmet made of foil. |
| 510 | * CaptainErsatz: As yet another ''obvious'' ([[Administrivia/TropesAreTools but welcomed]]) ShoutOut to ''Franchise/GIJoe'', Corporate Commander is basically Cobra Commander if he was a CorruptCorporateExecutive. |
| 511 | ** The "new" series has The Overlord (essentially [[WesternAnimation/InspectorGadget Doctor Claw]] with a teddy bear instead of the Mad Cat) as Corporate Commander's superior. |
| 512 | * CaptionHumor: Sometimes employed on the right-side caption. |
| 513 | ** The caption guy is his own character who likes to make stabs at Joe whenever he can. |
| 514 | * CasanovaWannabe: In one of the 1-year anniversary crossover videos, he goes around delivering horrendous pick-up lines to all the women on the site. |
| 515 | * CatchPhrase: |
| 516 | ** "You done ''fucked it up!''" -- Whenever he reviews a bad or disappointing game that he'd been looking forward to. |
| 517 | ** "'''FOUR HOURS!'''" -- Or a variation there of when he talks about a full price game that has a pathetically short single player, especially if the game either has a lackluster multiplayer or even a non-existent one. |
| 518 | ** And of course there is his outro. -- "And I'll see you guys on the next Angry Joe Show!" |
| 519 | ** "Over and over..." -- Whenever he mention something repetitive on his reviews. |
| 520 | ** "No! NNNNO!" -- When he mention something he dislikes. |
| 521 | ** For Corporate Commander, either "Don't need it!" in regards to something crucial that wasn't in the game, or "You ''need'' it!" for unwelcome additions such as {{Microtransactions}}. |
| 522 | ** "Are you out of your mind?!" for particularly [[CrackIsCheaper egregious]] {{Microtransactions}}. |
| 523 | * CausticCritic: Despite the name, he's usually pretty nice. Nowhere did this become more apparent than when he teamed up with Spoony at E3 2010, where the two practically became a GoodCopBadCop comedy duo. When Joe ''does'' lose his temper, it's usually over something most people would be frustrated about, and he manages to get control of himself quite quickly. He even always takes the time to point out things he likes in games he ''doesn't'' like, and makes the reviews funny whether or not he makes fun of the game. |
| 524 | * ChewingTheScenery: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hDt69WQoVA0 '''UNLIMITED POWAAAAAH!!!''']] |
| 525 | ** Joe LOVES to go over the top, but the best is his [[EvilIsHammy Demon Joe]] persona, which is put through a voice filter to make it extra demonic. |
| 526 | * CensoredForComedy: Joe always bleeps out swears in the first few seconds of each video, then proceeds to not censor them for the rest of the review. Sometimes he even bleeps out the wrong parts of swears, like in his Sonic Free Riders review, he bleeped out "God" instead of "damn." |
| 527 | * ChristmasEpisode: The "completely unplanned, impromptu Angry Joe Christmas review special" for 2013. |
| 528 | -->'''Joe:''' Hey, kids! Are any of you getting iPads for Christmas? |
| 529 | -->''(kids cheering)'' |
| 530 | -->'''Joe:''' Well, if you do, don't buy ''Star Trek Trexels,'' because it'll '''RUIN YOUR FUCKING CHRISTMAS!!''' |
| 531 | -->''(kids gasping in shock)'' |
| 532 | * ClusterFBomb: Weaponized as the cuss cannon. |
| 533 | ** He also gives one during his review ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamKnight'' for [[PortingDisaster PC]] when the game crashes. Again. |
| 534 | -->'''Joe:''' YOU MOTHERFUCKING PIECE OF SHIT! WHEN I SPEND SIXTY DOLLARS ON A FUCKING GAME, '''''I EXPECT IT TO FUCKING WORK!''''' |
| 535 | ** His review of ''VideoGame/RideToHellRetribution'' contains a lot of F-words. |
| 536 | ** His ''Film/Ghostbusters2016'' [[UnstoppableRage review]] is ''full'' of these. |
| 537 | -->'''Joe:''' I fucking got it...I fucking got it. |
| 538 | -->'''Other Joe:''' What is it? What class? |
| 539 | -->'''Joe:''' It's a Class 10 ''FUCKING'' STINKER! It's a Class 10 goddamn piece of shit fucking movie that ''really'' '''''SUCKS ASS!''''' |
| 540 | * ColdOpen: Often gives his opinion of the game in a succinct, often silly, manner. Other times they just have something funny to say about the game. |
| 541 | ** The more Joe loved the game that he reviews, the more intricate and complex his cold open will be. On the opposite end of the scale, if he ''hated'' the game he will merely stand in front of his green screen, sometimes taking off his elaborate costume, and yell ''"You done fucked it up!"'' |
| 542 | * ComicalOverreacting: Part of him being angry involves this, from shouting the F word to committing murder. |
| 543 | * {{Cosplay}}: Joe sure likes to dress up whenever a game might call for it (even as a [[VideoGame/TotalWar geisha]]...). |
| 544 | * CoughSnarkCough: He sneaks one for Destiny when he thinks on what games he will include in Top 10 Most Disappointing Games of 2014. |
| 545 | * CriticBreakdown: Joe is simply in love with this trope. |
| 546 | ** His [[https://youtu.be/a1HTKWX15oo review]] of ''VideoGame/RideToHellRetribution'' opens with him in his gaming chair writhing in agony and clutching at his eyes. |
| 547 | ** Similarly, the [[https://youtu.be/eK4u4uezIPM review video]] for ''VideoGame/MindJack'' opens with him sitting facing the camera, staring blankly and drooling as a voiceover explains that the game Mind Jacked him while he was playing. |
| 548 | * CurseCutShort: The intro to his review of ''VideoGame/Anthem2019'' has his "You done FUCKED it up!" catchphrase get interrupted twice by the game's loading screens, poking fun at the large number of loading screens at nearly every turn. |
| 549 | * DashingHispanic: In his review for ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedIII'', he plays Ezio Auditore (an Italian) as a DashingHispanic. |
| 550 | --> '''Ezio Joe''': [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign Allo]]. [[MyNameIsInigoMontoya My name is Amigo Toyota]]. YouKilledMyFather''rr'', my mothe''rrr'', my brothe''rrr'', my rrroommate ... PrepareToDie. (''MusicalisInterruptus'') What the ''hh''ell is ''hh''appening? (''BlindedByTheLight'') [[GratuitousSpanish Caramba cuño]]! My eyes! Ah carajo! |
| 551 | * DeathSeeker: While playing Shadows of Mordor, he was defeated by Olgoth the Humiliator so many times he demanded Olgoth kill him. |
| 552 | * DesignatedHero: Parodied by "Joe Lee" in the ''Sleeping Dogs''-review intro skit, who actually manages to be downright StupidEvil.[[invoked]] |
| 553 | * DespairEventHorizon: He starts his ''Sonic Free Riders'' review having already crossed it. He walks in visibly shattered (with the captions even asking if he's alright) and says that the game is not only the worst he's ever played, but that it has ruined his life and messed with his senses. |
| 554 | * DigitalPiracyIsEvil: Or rather the heavy handed enforcement of persecuting free use is evil. Joe had been targeted for using copyright material ''in a review,'' leading to many of his videos being taken down. |
| 555 | * DistractedByTheSexy: His initial reaction to ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'', getting himself some "Private Time" near the end. |
| 556 | ** When Lisa Foiles complains about the ''VideoGame/IronMan2'' video game, and gradually loses clothing as she gets angrier, Joe forgets that he was supposed to be reviewing the game becomes fixated on Lisa, even remarking "I think I'm in love!" |
| 557 | * TheDitz[=/=]{{Malaproper}}: While he's not excessively dim, Joe's limited vernacular is treated as a running joke by his peers on the Channel Awesome podcast. |
| 558 | -->'''Joe''': I'm going home! Oh, I am home... Well, I'm gonna play my (board) game! |
| 559 | -->'''Computer''': By ''yourself'', Joe? LOL! |
| 560 | * DrugsAreBad: And so is chewing Cat Butt Gum. "It will ''take over your life!''" |
| 561 | * EskimosArentReal: In his movie review of ''Film/BoratSubsequentMoviefilm'', Joe is under the impression that UsefulNotes/{{Kazakhstan}} is a fictional country. |
| 562 | * EtTuBrute: At the start of the ''Total War: Rome II'' review, Other Joe gets stabbed by Joe and, with his last breaths, says "Et tu, Joe?" |
| 563 | * EvilCounterpart [=/=] DemonicPossession: [[VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins Darkspawn]] Joe is Joe with outright destructive intentions, and a demonic voice. |
| 564 | * EvilIsHammy: Darkspawn Joe hams it up even more than Angry Joe does. |
| 565 | * EvilLaugh: He has one after he ropes Jo into joining him in suffering through his review of the Thor video game. |
| 566 | * FanDisservice: Joe's large male friend Jacob wears a Wonder Woman costume in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1egeuoYBOU first injustice vlog.]] |
| 567 | ** He appeared earlier in the ''VideoGame/LollipopChainsaw'' review, dressed as a cheerleader. |
| 568 | ** Joe uses the player summon system in ''Videogame/DragonsDogma'' to call upon his friend Jacob... who appears in his living room naked, being pulled straight out of his shower. BrainBleach ensues. |
| 569 | ** His review for ''Alien: Isolation'' has the camera slowly panning up a pair of hairy legs[[note]]possibly belonging to Joe himself[[/note]] before Angry Joe interrupts the pan with "NO!" |
| 570 | ** In the ''Metal Gear Solid V'' review, Other Joe dresses as Quiet to spoof her excessive fanservice. |
| 571 | * FlippingTheBird: Gives one to the camera during his Nintendo rant. |
| 572 | * FoodAsBribe: He tricks Other Joe into playing the Thor movie game by luring him with the promise of pizza. |
| 573 | * ForScience: The ''Alien Isolation'' review starts with Other Joe seeing an alien egg. "What is this? In the name of science, I will stick my face directly over it!" Cue the face hugger attack. |
| 574 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: You can usually tell how he's going to rate a game in the first 20 seconds of his review. Though, the fun is in him entertaining you while he [[EdutainmentShow educates the viewer about the game.]] |
| 575 | * FourPointScale: {{Averted}} - Joe, per [[https://archive.org/details/bliptv-20131012-065011-AngryJoeShow-GameReviewingSpoonyAngryJoeBirdman873 this video]], states that this trope is a pet peeve of his. The Angry Reviews, including his cohorts' scores for extended discussions and Rapid Fire Reviews, uses just about every number on the 1-10 scale (all whole numbers; no decmials). To Joe and his team, 5 is the flat average and reviews build towards them justifying a higher or lower score on that scale[[note]]Even a game scoring a 3 to Joe will have some nice points, though he'll still explain the game's negatives and why it's not worth recommending; conversely, Joe will go over-the-moon for a 9/10 game, but will detail why it misses his mark for a 10[[/note]]. On the other hand, there are some games that do play with this trope. |
| 576 | ** A 7 would be seen as a relatively weak score on the show's scale, yet Joe considered it the highest score he could possibly give to ''VideoGame/DanceCentral'' by reasoning the game was still fun and was built specifically for the [[Platform/Xbox360 Kinect]] to take advantage of. Not only did he give it his Badass Seal of Approval, Joe also placed it at #5 on his Top Ten Best Games of 2010 list. |
| 577 | ** Similarly, he gave ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath'' a 6, but gave it his Badass Seal of Approval because he was in sheer awe of the game for the whole time he was playing it. |
| 578 | * FreudianSlip: While [[http://www.twitch.tv/angryjoeshow/v/3687352 playing]] the [[ThatOneLevel infamous]] [[VeryDefinitelyFinalDungeon Rainbow Road]] in ''VideoGame/MarioKart8'', he screams out "Fuck you [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Rainbow Dash]]!" |
| 579 | * FromBadToWorse: Joe reacts to the revelation that ''Rambo: The Video Game'' is yet another game with only '''[[RunningGag FOUR HOURS]]''' of gameplay about as well as you'd expect... and then remembers that it only even took that long because the last level was full of FakeDifficulty and kept crashing. The amount of gameplay when you take that level out of the equation? '''TWO HOURS'''! |
| 580 | * GenkiGuy: The real life Joe has a ''hell'' of a lot of energy. |
| 581 | * GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: His subtitle monitor asks this in the ''Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters'' review. |
| 582 | * GilliganCut: After vowing to take down Chick-Fil-A unless they start opening on Sundays, he's shown on Monday enjoying one of their chicken sandwiches instead. |
| 583 | * GoMadFromTheRevelation: |
| 584 | ** The ''Ride to Hell'' review starts with Joe rocking back and forth in his chair, sobbing helplessly. Other Joe tries to snap him out of it, and then sees the cause - Joe's computer, open to Steam, with ''Ride to Hell'' open in the library. |
| 585 | -->'''Other Joe:''' ''Twenty-one hours?!?'' Oh my God, what the hell are you thinking? Are you ''stupid?!?'' |
| 586 | ** [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony]] does this over the course of the ''Aliens: Colonial Marines'' review, after Joe whispers to him that the game retcons the death of [[spoiler:Corporal Hicks]]. Having just witnessed another of his favorite franchises mishandle the resurrection of a key character in his then-recent ''VideoGame/UltimaIX'' review, Spoony did not take this revelation well ''at all''. |
| 587 | * GoshDangItToHeck: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_NISt5tJOg&feature=youtu.be&t=72 Parodied]] in "Disney Buys [=AngryJoeShow=]!" |
| 588 | -->''"I will no longer be allowed to cuss! Instead I will have to use 'television' curse words. That's right, you ''[[AC:motorscooters]]''! Now don't give me any of your ''[[AC:bullfreak]]''! This is some serious ''[[AC:stuff]]'' right now! And if you think I'm some kind of sellout as--''[[AC:airhead]]'' for changing my format, then you... you can go ''[[AC:pluck]]'' yourself!"'' |
| 589 | * GreaterScopeVillain: The Overlord. He's Corporate Commander's boss but is barely ever seen or mentioned at all. |
| 590 | * GreekChorus: The background screen in Joe's new base of operations on his show. Sometimes it seems to have a personality, such as in the review of ''Risen,'' where it wakes him up after sleeping standing up. |
| 591 | * GunPorn: For a review show about video games, he finds ''a lot'' of excuses to put fake guns in it, normally duel-wielding assault rifles. |
| 592 | * HeadDesk: |
| 593 | ** He does this in his ''Rambo: The Video Game'' review, after the game crashes during its insanely hard final level for the second time. |
| 594 | ** In a similar vein, he head desks as he resigns himself to VideoGame/NoMansSky's terrible crashing, complete with [[Franchise/StarWars space helmet]]. |
| 595 | * HellbentForLeather: Aside from his Superboy shirt, Joe's leather jacket is his most noticeable choice of clothes. |
| 596 | * HeroicBSOD: |
| 597 | ** Inflicted on Joe by ''Sonic Free Riders''. |
| 598 | ** And even more so in his review of ''Mindjack'', Creator/StephenHawking style. |
| 599 | ** Defied in his ''VideoGame/RideToHellRetribution'' review where he battles Demon Joe in the centre of the mind but he's definitely exhausted afterwards. |
| 600 | ** Played for laughs in his ''Rambo: The Video Game'' review, where Joe Rambo undergoes this after the bad guys torture him by making him play the game. The game itself comes close to inflicting one on the real Joe (especially when it crashes for the second time in the final level), but its hilarious ineptitude prevents him from completely losing it. |
| 601 | ** He has what pretty much corresponds to a mental breakdown at the end of his Duck Dynasty video game livestream. He was obviously already displeased with the game earlier; the game freezing while loading after he completed another tedious fishing sidequest finally just broke the poor guy. |
| 602 | * HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: During the Nostalgia Critic's review of ''Film/ManOfSteel'', it's shown Joe went through this involving [[NoodleImplements lobster costumes and nipple tasers]]. |
| 603 | * HomageShot: To the printer smashing sequence in ''Film/OfficeSpace'' during his ''VideoGame/FableIII'' [[http://youtu.be/oSaw85bliyQ?t=17m25s video]]. |
| 604 | * HongKongDub: Parodied in his ''VideoGame/FruitNinja Kinect'' review. |
| 605 | * HotBlooded: Joe's blood is on ''fire''. Fortunately, he's not totally kneejerk and will usually justify his reactions to things. Sometimes, his passionate style backfires on him (see CreatorBacklash) but he hits more often than he misses. Even if you disagree with his opinions, odds are good that you'll still be entertained by his reviews. |
| 606 | * HostileShowTakeover: For the 2011 April Fool's video, Corporate Commander briefly commandeers the Resistance Base and attempts to provide a "professional, coolheaded counterbalance" to Joe. [[HypocriticalHumor To say he fails]] ''[[LargeHam is]] [[ChewingTheScenery an]] [[NoIndoorVoice understatement]]''. |
| 607 | * ImplausibleDeniability: In his famous interview with Major Nelson, the latter insisted that the XBOX One's infamous DRM system was integrated into the device and could not be removed even if they wanted to. When Joe incredulously pointed out how stupid that lie was (it was just a complex registration system) and that it could easily be patched out, he refused to address the criticism and just angrily asked if Joe was an engineer. A few days later Microsoft announced that it would indeed be patched out. |
| 608 | * ItsShortSoItSucks: A common complaint InUniverse is when a game's main campaign is just a few hours long and/or has an abrupt ending. A running gag is him repeating the length in a slow motion flashback. |
| 609 | -->"FOUR HOURS!" |
| 610 | ** Inverted in one case with ''Thor: God of Thunder'', which may be the only game Joe has railed on for being unreasonably ''long'' instead of unreasonably short, since it means the same repetitive, boring gameplay for an ungodly amount of time. |
| 611 | -->"I don't know what's worse: FOUR HOURS of garbage, or '''TWELVE HOURS''' of garbage!" |
| 612 | * JumpCut: Done so often it's practically a SignatureStyle. |
| 613 | * KillerRabbit: While Angry Joe & Boogie play ''Far Cry 4'', one soldier ends up being killed by a honey badger. |
| 614 | %%* LampshadedDoubleEntendre: Parodied in the ''Film/ResidentEvilAfterlife''. |
| 615 | * LargeHam: Particularly bombastic; makes some of the others look like {{Deadpan Snarker}}s in comparison. |
| 616 | ** Particularly in his ''VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins'' review, where he hams up both Abomination Joe ''and'' Warden Joe - especially after Warden Joe slays the Abomination. |
| 617 | ** Hell, he could give Creator/BrianBlessed a run for his money. This is ''barely'' hyperbole: just look at the opening to his ''UFO: Extraterrestrials'' review where he gives a slow-mo BigNo followed by a stentorian "I WILL AVENGE YOU ALLLLLLLLLL!" |
| 618 | * LaughablyEvil: Corporate Commander is actually quite amusing whenever he shows up. |
| 619 | * LaResistance: The Angry Joe Army. |
| 620 | * LickingTheBlade: Parodied by licking melon juice. |
| 621 | * LimitedWardrobe: His characters tend to wear just one outfit. Joe himself almost always wears the same black ''[[Comicbook/{{Superman}} Superboy]]'' t-shirt, with exceptions for certain reviews. |
| 622 | ** He wore a hoodie and jacket over it to {{cosplay}} as Alex Mercer during his ''VideoGame/{{Prototype}}'' review; this [[HilariousInHindsight seemed more bizarre]] when [[http://comicsmedia.ign.com/comics/image/article/113/1130517/superman-earth-one-20101026115150707.jpg a JMS-written Superman Graphic Novel featured the Man of Steel bearing more than a passing resemblance to Alex Mercer]]. |
| 623 | ** In his "Disney Buys Angry Joe Show" video he took off his black Superboy shirt (to replace it with a Captain America shirt), revealing that his undershirt was... a black Superboy shirt. |
| 624 | * MadnessMantra: |
| 625 | ** Part of his ''VideoGame/{{Rambo}}: The Video Game'' review featured him playing the game and being subjected to soldiers yelling "Come on, comrades! He's a man, not a god!" [[WelcomeToCorneria over and over]] until he just started chanting it on his own. |
| 626 | ** "VideoGame/{{Godzilla}} is destroying the generator! The generator is losing power!" |
| 627 | ** "Set Your [[Platform/NintendoSwitch Joycon]] Down On Its Side! Set Your Joycon Down On Its Side!" |
| 628 | * MickeyMousing: He engages in it (complete [[EverythingsBetterWithSparkles with sparkles]] later on) in his video announcing that Maker Studios (the network behind Polaris, and therefore his employer) were bought by Creator/{{Disney}}. |
| 629 | * MoodWhiplash: When watching the trailer for Series/Titans2018, he seemed to enjoy himself. However, the moment Robin uttered the words "Fuck Batman", his smile dissapeared ''instantly''! |
| 630 | * MovieSuperheroesWearBlack: He points out this at the end of his ''Film/GIJoe'' review, while he's playing with his action figures. |
| 631 | * MyEyesAreUpHere: Perhaps the only known example where this is done by a noncorporeal entity. During the ''Azura's Wrath'' review, the background shows one of the sauna girls on the right side with her face covered by the screen-in-screen display, where the text comment reads ''"Ehem. I'm up here."'' |
| 632 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Says this at the end of his movie review of ''Film/TheLastAirbender'', realizing that by repeatedly saying just how bad this movie is, [[SchmuckBait people are going to want to see it]] [[BileFascination just to see how bad it really is.]] He repeatedly tells them to seriously not waste their money, but knows people are going to go see it anyway. |
| 633 | * MrFanservice: Other Joe in some videos, especially the [[HoYay intro]] to the review of ''VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition''. His musculature is something of a running gag. |
| 634 | * MsFanservice: [[http://www.lisafoiles.com/ Lisa Foiles]] of ''Series/AllThat'' as the BridgeBunny of the New Angry Joe Show. |
| 635 | * NauseaFuel: InUniverse; the controls on ''Sonic Free Riders'' make him want to vomit. |
| 636 | * NeverTrustATrailer: He frequently points out discrepancies between pre-released materials and the movie/game he's reviewing. |
| 637 | ** Or on the case of ''Film/TheLastAirbender'', it's a trailer being better than the movie. |
| 638 | --->'''Joe''': It's the best part of the movie, and it ''isn't even in the actual movie''! |
| 639 | * NiceGuy: Underneath the bluster, he's a very sweet guy. |
| 640 | * NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: |
| 641 | ** Joe delivers one on Corporate Commander for a solid 15 seconds upon the announcement of ''[[VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom3 Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3]]'', saying that the re-release he proposed was supposed to be a joke. |
| 642 | ** Corporate Commander is handed another, inside his own base at the end of {{Destiny}}. |
| 643 | --->'''Joe''': Somebody left your door open. |
| 644 | ** Corporate Commander also dishes one out to Spiderman during the opening to VideoGame/TheAmazingSpiderMan2. Violently beating him with a bat until money comes out. |
| 645 | *** Which Spidey delivers back in VideoGame/SpiderManPS4 with some delicious [[TheDogBitesBack karmic justice]]. |
| 646 | * NonSequitur: Bizarro Joe gives one to Judge Joe in the cold open for the ''Film/{{Dredd}}'' movie review. |
| 647 | -->'''Judge Joe:''' [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking For inciting chaos in Mega City One, for impersonating a reviewer, for misleading the audience, and for 32 unpaid parking tickets]], how do you plead? |
| 648 | -->'''Bizarro Joe:''' Uh, I...I like turtles. |
| 649 | -->'''Judge Joe:''' I knew you'd say that. ''({{beat}})'' Actually...I actually didn't know you would say that. Interesting. ''(charges his Lawgiver pistol)'' |
| 650 | -->'''Bizarro Joe:''' Wait, Judge...NOOOOO!!! ''(Judge Joe proceeds to shoot him dead in slow motion)'' |
| 651 | -->'''Judge Joe:''' Court's adjourned, creep! |
| 652 | * NonindicativeName: He really isn't that angry at all, and has actually said that he hates giving negative reviews. If anything he's Vitriolically Enthusiastic Joe. |
| 653 | ** Although his name does become meaningful when he's reviewing a bad game (that's when he actually DOES get really angry.) |
| 654 | * NothingIsTheSameAnymore: Quoted verbatim in his ''Sonic Free Riders'' review. |
| 655 | * OffTheShelfFX: Frequently uses toy official gaming props, costumes and weapons in his reviews. He owns a full set of [[{{Videogame/Halo}} Master Chief armor.]] |
| 656 | ** In the [[Videogame/Doom2016 Doom]] review, the shotgun wielded by Doomgun is an ''authentic'' [[http://www.connecticutshotgun.com/product/dp-12-double-barrel-pump-shotgun/ DP-12 double barrel shotgun]] which Joe got to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VT4lFQCp84c fire for real]] on a firing range. Joe's very conscious of gun safety and avoids RecklessGunUsage by having every demon in the Doom review added digitally by green screen effect and never actually pointing a real gun at anyone. |
| 657 | * OnceAnEpisode: "I'll see you guys on the next Angry Joe Show!" |
| 658 | * OneSteveLimit: Averted: One of his real-life friends who makes appearances on the show is also named Joe. To distinguish between the two, he's often referred to as "Other Joe." Other Joe helps out with [=LPs=] and is a background character in some video reviews. |
| 659 | * OurPresidentsAreDifferent: According to WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic's ItsAWonderfulPlot ChristmasSpecial, had the Nostalgia Critic never existed, Angry Joe would've become a power president of the USA, who has people publicly executed and blows up Canada. And the people love him for it. (Although the public execution was for Tom Green and that Canada was, according to him, [[TheEmpire an evil empire]] in this alternate reality. [[WildMassGuessing Possibly ruled by Sea Horses.]]) |
| 660 | * OverlyLongGag: During his ''Anime/DragonBallZ: Kinect'' review's intro, he spends a considerable amount of time charging up his {{battle aura}} while [[ScreamingWarrior screaming at the top of his lungs]]... Which is [[AffectionateParody extremely appropriate and in-line]] with the (in)famous pacing and edition style used in the animated series. [[note]]For example, compare it to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYDohBeP72M Goku's first transformation in Super Saiyan 3]][[/note]] |
| 661 | ** Other Joe's assassination of Corporate Commander at the start of ''VideoGame/TheOuterWorlds''. He empties an entire revolver, then reloads and empties another round, then shoots him multiple times with a machine gun, then hacks him with an axe, then he reloads his revolver ''again'' and empties it one more time. |
| 662 | * PetPeeveTrope: |
| 663 | ** FourPointScale: him and his team absolutely insists on averting this for their reviews due to their complete disdain for most of the industry's news media adopting it and general audiences not fully understanding the show's approach to video game reviews. Joe has repeatedly reminded viewers that a 5/10 means what it ''should'' mean - "average", not "bad" as most of the media labels. |
| 664 | ** {{Microtransactions}}: due to the overabundance of this throughout the medium and having seen such egregrious price tags that makes his blood boil (like a weapon skin in ''VideoGame/{{Valorant}}'' costing nearly $100), Joe is forced to dock points off of an Angry Review if they're present. |
| 665 | ** ObviousBeta[[invoked]]: similar to {{Microtransactions}}, if a game (especially a "live-service") has severe issues at launch involving explicit bugs/glitches, server instabilities, game crashes and inconsistent presentation/visuals[[note]]Screen-tearing, missing assets and textures, disppearing heads-up display/user interface, etc.[[/note]], Joe will take these things into account for an Angry Review and score the game for what it is at release, not for what it can/will be post-launch, even if these issues might be resolved down the line. |
| 666 | * PlayTheGameSkipTheStory: InUniverse, this is his opinion of ''VideoGame/DyingLight'' - he feels the story is a derivative ClicheStorm full of boring characters and an uninspired [[VideoGame/FarCry3 Vaas]] ripoff villain. When it gets to the gameplay, though, he praises it as he feels the LeParkour, fighting mechanic, and crafting system all contribute to an enjoyable experience. |
| 667 | * PowerEchoes[=/=]PowerMakesYourVoiceDeep: Both happen when Joe becomes a Red Lantern. |
| 668 | * PraisingShowsYouDontWatch: {{Invoked}} as a variation - in his review of ''Film/TheLastAirbender'', Joe said he hadn't watched ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'', but insisted it couldn't be as bad as the movie, considering the fanbase and adoration for it. |
| 669 | -->"There is ''no way'' the cartoon is this bad! There is no way a series this popular can be like this!" |
| 670 | ** He soon had it recommended by his fans. [[http://twitter.com/AngryJoeShow/status/18722927242 He approves of the show]]. |
| 671 | * PrecisionFStrike: "Fuck 3-D!" |
| 672 | ** "You done '''FUCKED''' it up!" |
| 673 | * PreviouslyOn: How his Green Lantern review starts, reminding us how much he was ''NOT'' looking forward to it. |
| 674 | * RealMenWearPink: Real men profess their love of dancing games and cross-dress as a geisha or a little girl when the video demands (excuses) it! And don a pink tutu and boa (plus a military helmet) for an interpretive dance about ''Battlefield 3''! |
| 675 | * TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: |
| 676 | ** Delivered a long and ''blistering'' one to his fans who viciously attacked Anita Sarkeesian in his "Top 10 Gaming Controversies of 2013" video. |
| 677 | ** The ENTIRETY of his review for ''VideoGame/RideToHellRetribution'' is considered one directed at its developers. He even speaks a variant of the trope itself to the game. |
| 678 | -->'''Joe:''' Now, game... lemme tell you why this sucks. |
| 679 | ** Joe gave one ''hell'' of a verbal smackdown to Nintendo after all his attempts to upload footage of Wii U games ended with Nintendo claiming copyright on the entire video. In the rant that followed, he accused the company of constantly rehashing their game ideas and ripping gamers off with Amiibos, accused their fanboys of being hypocrites, before ending it by [[InsultToRocks comparing them unfavorably with Electronic Arts]] and implying that he considers them the absolute worst developer (in terms of business practices, at least) in the entire industry, and vowing never to cover their products again barring a major turnaround in their attitude. |
| 680 | ** Joe (parodying a school principal} gives Creator/CDProjekt (a school student with a ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'' t-shirt) one ''hell'' of a roasting laden with ''TranquilFury'', expressing his disappointment at CD Projekt's latest game [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oN5v0mcTMs&ab_channel=AngryJoeShow&t=53s during the intro of his review of said game.]] |
| 681 | ** Joe went [[RageBreakingPoint full ballistic]] on Madden 21 Next-Gen in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jrh6IXx1JeA&t=1358s his "Top 10 Most DISAPPOINTING Games of 2020"]] and gave a scathing speech on how not only it failed to live up to its already small expectations, but also proving that EA is nothing but a greedy scum who exploits others for their own gain and that they didn't show any little ounce of care for this game as it was already so poor and further divided its fanbases. |
| 682 | * RedOniBlueOni: While Angry Joe is very emotional and prone to loud outbursts, Other Joe is the definition of chill. |
| 683 | * {{Retool}}: The show retooled itself sometime after ''WebVideo/{{Kickassia}}'', and is easily the best produced show on Website/ChannelAwesome, as far as visuals and backdrops go. |
| 684 | * RidiculouslyAverageGuy: How Joe feels about Desmond Miles from ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed''. |
| 685 | --> '''Desmond Joe''': Hi, my name is Desmond Miles. I have a fanny pack. |
| 686 | ** He even has Ezio assassinate Desmond. |
| 687 | *** And [[Videogame/{{Hitman}} Agent 47]]. |
| 688 | * TheRival: Corporate Commander. |
| 689 | * RuleOfFun: Joe accused ''VideoGame/KaneAndLynch 2'' of disobeying this rule for a more realistic path by taking out Lynch's episodes of psychosis (which he stated was one of the first game's most enjoyable components) with the HandWave that he was back on medication. |
| 690 | -->''"That's not fun!"'' |
| 691 | * RunningGag: |
| 692 | ** '''[[ItsShortSoItSucks FOUR HOURS!]]''' |
| 693 | ** "YOU DONE FUCKED IT UP", for [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin when a game has fucked it up.]]. One variety of this is when it's a shooter game. Joe will walk into frame with a toy gun, shoot it off in three random locations with a disgruntled look on his face, and say the line. |
| 694 | ** "'''BLUE!'''" Used in response to lazy and/or excessive DLC. Originated in a review for ''VideoGame/{{Evolve}}'', where Joe pointed out that they were selling a weapon already in the game, just painted blue. |
| 695 | ** "Are you out of your mind?!": Usually accompanies an angry rant where a game does something obscene and/or disrespectful to its fanbase, either [[VideoGame/TheLastOfUsPart2 creatively]] or [[VideoGame/{{Valorant}} monetarily]]. |
| 696 | * SanitySlippage: After playing level after level after level of the same mission involving generators in Godzilla, Joe slowly starts losing it. The rest of the game's awfulness just sort of... pushes him further over the edge into desperation. |
| 697 | * SarcasticClapping: In his review of the video games for ''[[VideoGame/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows Deathly Hallows Parts 1 and 2]]'': |
| 698 | -->'''Joe''': [The dev team] probably actually listened to the feedback that they got from the angry mothers and grandmothers who bought their kids this crap. Well...(claps three times slowly)...good for you. That's what you're ''supposed'' to do. |
| 699 | * ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: When Joe gets carjacked in his ''Videogame/{{GrandTheftAutoV}}'' review. |
| 700 | ** Both Joe and Other Joe spend their Let's Play for [[Videogame/SilentHills Playable Teaser]] in a constantly freaked-out state with frequent shrieks. |
| 701 | * SkywardScream: During his Chick-Fil-A video when he realizes they're closed on Sundays. |
| 702 | * SelfDeprecation: During his review of ''VideoGame/{{Homefront}}'', while [[StopBeingStereotypical Joe complains]] about the [[EverythingIsBigInTexas obnoxious loudmouthed Texan]] with the oversize belt-buckle who "loses his shit". |
| 703 | -->'''Joe''': [[{{Beat}} ...]] oh wait, that is kinda' what we do. |
| 704 | ** During his ''VideoGame/AlienIsolation'' review, there's a short of him working with a malfunctioning Working Joe, and after almost getting strangled by it, says this: |
| 705 | --> '''Joe''': I hate working with Joe's. |
| 706 | * SeriousBusiness: "''Sonic Free Riders'' has ruined my life. That's it. This is the ''[[Horrible/VideoGames worst game]]'' [[Horrible/VideoGames I have ever played]]! Nothing in my life is the same anymore! [[SuckinessIsPainful Music doesn't sound the same.]] ''[[SuckinessIsPainful Food]]'', [[SuckinessIsPainful food doesn't taste like anything anymore!]]" |
| 707 | * SharedUniverse: The Reviewaverse. |
| 708 | * ShooOutTheClowns: During his "Top Ten Gaming Controversies of 2013," Joe stops his funny jabs and rants on the perpetrators behind the controversies to a give a serious 10+ minute long TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to those (especially his fanbase in particular) who harassed Anita Sarkeesian, criticizing them for sending rape and death threats to her for her opinions. Joe said he didn't agree with her opinions, but that didn't mean she deserved threats at all. He goes right back to his joking attitude right after, causing quite a bit of MoodWhiplash. |
| 709 | * ShownTheirWork: Joe does plenty of background research for his reviews, especially for games that are part of an existing franchise. For instance, being able to provide examples of ''The Darkness''[='=] JustForFun/SuperWeight despite being an obscure IP, and researching ''VideoGame/AceCombat'' enough to warn fans that ''[[VideoGame/AceCombatAssaultHorizon Assault Horizon]]'' was not a 'true' installment of the main series, despite earlier admitting he hadn't actually played any of the previous games before his review. |
| 710 | * ShoutOut: Angry Joe makes several "[[Film/BatmanAndRobin Bat Credit Card]]" jokes in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1egeuoYBOU first injustice vlog,]] just like WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic. |
| 711 | * SigningOffCatchPhrase: "I'll see you guys on the next Angry Joe Show." |
| 712 | * SilentSnarker: The Monitor. It tend to snark at or make fun of either Joe and his over-the-top, enthusiastic behaviour behind his back or at the bad game he's reviewing. |
| 713 | * SincerityMode: His review on why the ''VideoGame/MassEffect3'' endings suck has him review it in a [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness quiet and understated]] manner. |
| 714 | * SoBadItsGood: [[invoked]] Joe and his brothers' opinion of the ''Series/ManVsWild'' game - a frustrating waste of time as a game, but hilarious when exploring how bugged and broken it is. |
| 715 | * SoundEffectBleep: Sometimes when Joe swears, it's bleeped out, and sometimes, it's not, seemingly at random. There's no real reason for this other than Joe being silly. Often the bleeps aren't synchronised with the words they're meant to be bleeping, for the same reason. He claims he does this just to see if anyone points it out. That's it. |
| 716 | ** Hilariously, [[http://angryjoeshow.com/2010/05/iron-man-2-review/ his Iron Man 2 review]] has him dropping an AtomicFBomb, bleeping out only the middle third of it. |
| 717 | -->"FUU(*bleeeeeeeeeep*)UUUUCK." |
| 718 | * SpaceStation: The Resistance Base. |
| 719 | * TheStinger: Directing people to his website, for those who watch his videos elsewhere. |
| 720 | * StunnedSilence: |
| 721 | ** His review of ''VideoGame/StarcraftII'' begins with him staring blankly into the camera for about a minute, swaying slightly before falling over. Yes, he likes the game. |
| 722 | ** Conversely, his review of ''VideoGame/AliensColonialMarines'' begins with him walking in front of the [[ChromaKey Green Screen]] dressed like a [[SpaceMarine Colonial Marine]]. He stands there staring dourly into the camera for a while before saying, "... you fucked it up!" |
| 723 | * StylisticSuck: Parodied in the review for ''VideoGame/KaneAndLynch: Dog Days.'' Corporate Commander tells his employees to just take the first game and add tons of terrible Website/YouTube video filter effects to screw it up and add ShakyCam until nothing is visible. "Yes! More! Excellent!" |
| 724 | ** Played straight in the ''Videogame/AliensColonialMarines'' video, where Marine!Joe is fighting Xenomorphs who are quite obviously little action figures, and you can even see the hands manipulating them. |
| 725 | * SuckinessIsPainful: ''Sonic Free Riders'' is the [[BerserkButton absolute worst game]] that Joe has ever had the displeasure of paying for and playing. His absolute first 1/10 review. The game's SuckinessIsPainful index is so bad that Joe says he's going to sue Sega for Assault in the First Degree after revealing that [[SensoryAbuse the Kinect motion controls, combined with the overly loud soundtrack and horrible course designs filled with sudden 90 turns, WILL actually hurt you.]] It's so horrible that Joe returns it to Game Stop claiming that the game is broken. He gets a full refund and gets the Kinect Sports game that he made the mistake of passing up in the first place. |
| 726 | -->"Assault in the First Degree: To ''knowingly'' inflict bodily harm" |
| 727 | ** The second game he's given a 1/10 to, ''VideoGame/{{Mindjack}}'', was so bad it left him a Stephen-Hawking-like shell unable to speak or move without mechanical assistance; it probably would have been a lot less offensive if the game hadn't had such a cool initial concept married to such a broken execution. Its one good point? Monkeys. |
| 728 | ** ''VideoGame/RideToHellRetribution'' not only left him catatonic, it sent him to hell to deal with Demon-Joe to do the review (Demon-Joe worked on the game, apparently...). However, the game ended up not breaking Joe as Demon-Joe hoped, but driving his rage-levels to new heights. He then woke up for the final blows to "perform the exorcism." |
| 729 | ** ''Star Trek Trexels'' is the fourth game to receive a 1/10 due to its massive overuse off paywalls and microtransactions. |
| 730 | *** Joe even ''punches his iPad'' when the game unfairly robs him of the only dilithium crystal that can be earned through a minigame rather than an in-game purchase. |
| 731 | * SuspiciouslySimilarSong: Invoked, the new show's intro ''is'' the ''Franchise/GIJoe'' opening theme (with repurposed lyrics). |
| 732 | * SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Joe accused ''VideoGame/KaneAndLynch 2'' of using this trope [[Administrivia/TropesAreTools to a demerit]] by taking out Lynch's episodes of psychosis with the excuse that he was back on medication and was stable. |
| 733 | * TakeThat: |
| 734 | ** In his review of ''VideoGame/DivinityDragonCommander'', he takes the fact that the player can potentially legalize gay marriage and provide equal rights to women as a chance to do this to anti-feminists and homophobes. When displaying the conversations from the opposition that result in allowing gay marriage, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOPP4NUGexQ&t=13m25s he juxtaposes their arguments with a particularly infamous video of a woman speaking out against gay marriage and sodomy with incredibly baseless arguments]]. |
| 735 | ** From his review of ''[=DmC=]: Devil May Cry'', Joe is seen playing the ''[[VideoGame/DevilMayCry Devil May Cry HD Collection]]'' port of ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry3DantesAwakening'', specifically the first stage, before pausing the game and switching discs to ''[=DmC=]''. At first, the game starts normally, but when Joe presses the start button to begin the game, it cuts to the Music/BloodOnTheDanceFloor song, "Bewitched", as part of a massive dramatization to mock the reboot's detractors. |
| 736 | * TheyKilledKennyAgain: Other Joe and Corporate Commander have both died numerous times, in the former's case, sometimes in a single video. |
| 737 | * TopTenList: His year end Best, Worst and Disappointing Games of Year X. He also covers the top ten controversies of the same year. |
| 738 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Chik-Fil-A products. |
| 739 | * TranquilFury: Quite epically towards Creator/{{Nintendo}} in his Angry Rants towards them and their [=YouTube=] revenue policies. He generally turns up his rage in his normal videos for comedy reasons, but his anger towards Nintendo in his rants are genuine this way. |
| 740 | * TwinkleSmile: When he thinks he's a knight. |
| 741 | * UnstoppableRage: Even worse when he becomes a [[Characters/GLRedLanternCorps Red]] [[Franchise/GreenLantern Lantern]] |
| 742 | ** And more recently [[Videogame/Doom2016 Doomguy]] as he faces Demon Joe and Corporate Commander in hell. |
| 743 | * UselessSpleen: The Corporate Commander utters this one after Joe delivers some ExtremeMeleeRevenge at the end of his Destiny Review. |
| 744 | -->My spleen... oh God, where's my spleen!? Where's my pancreas!? |
| 745 | * VerbalTic: |
| 746 | ** Likes to pronounce "especially" as "ex-specially". He even made fun of it himself at some points. |
| 747 | ** Sometimes over-emphasizes H-es and R-s, though, might be from his accent. |
| 748 | ** Pronounces "cancellation" as "cancellization". |
| 749 | * VideoReviewShow: A review show put on the Internet. |
| 750 | * VoiceOfTheLegion: Demon Joe (natch) and Red Lantern Joe. |
| 751 | * WelcomeToCorneria: This trope is repeatedly mocked by Joe, who has ''issues'' with constantly repeated dialogue in games such as in ''Godzilla'' and ''Rambo'', among others. |
| 752 | * WholesomeCrossdresser: Other Joe as Ellie from ''VideoGame/TheLastOfUs'' and Chun-Li from ''Franchise/StreetFighter''. |
| 753 | * WorldOfWeirdness: The show is set in the Reviewaverse, a complete universe of weirdness. After all, only in the Reviewaverse would Joe have Sith force lightning powers and own a space station. |
| 754 | * WhyDontYouMarryIt: Jokes that with so many ''Elder Scrolls'' games starting you out as a prisoner, they must have a fetish for it. |
| 755 | * [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why Did it Have to Be Generators?]]: After going {{mad|nessmantra}} from level after level of destroying the same boring old generators in ''VideoGame/{{Godzilla}}'' God of Destruction, he finally gets to a level where he destroys submarines, only to have the game refer to them as generators. |
| 756 | * WithLyrics: In his Worst Games of 2012, he reacts to a dinosaur-like monster in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'' by playing the [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/holy-shit-its-a-dinosaur "Holy Shit, It's A Dinosaur"]] meme that uses the ''Film/JurassicPark'' ending theme. |
| 757 | * WorstWhateverEver: He seems to say this far more often than he logically should. |
