  • For one, when X-Play "re-reviewed" ''Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core''. There's also anything involving Drunk Link, or lots of the skits, like this one.
  • The episode where the X-Play crew were forced to write reviews of video games from The '80s... With the Framing Device being a parody of The Breakfast Club. They ultimately ended up writing a suicide pact.
    • They also subvert the original film's suicide subplot by having Adam be a would-be school shooter mistaken for suicidal.
  • Adam Sessler going mad at the fact that a kid's site is making more money than him (Viacom buying the site for a large sum of money didn't help) and begging kids to go get money from mommy's purse and send it to him.
  • Speaking of Drunk Link, the time he had phone sex with Taki.
  • Video Game of Thrones opening with King Mario sentencing Toad to death for telling him "Our princess is in another castle."
  • After their review of the video game of The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, Adam Sessler says this as a response to people who say that they shouldn't say that a beautiful children's game based off a movie has sordid content (like saying that Edmund humps trees or that Peter is an abusive drinker).
    "Keep in mind that this is also a movie that teaches children that if they meet a strange half-naked man in the woods who offers them tea and cookies, THEY SHOULD GO WITH HIM!"
  • The review of X3: Reunion was rife with sexual innuendo inspired by the name of the game's villainous alien race, the Kha'ak.
  • X-Play: The Musical: The game Adam and Morgan wanted just ends up being a demonic red face followed by a "You lose" message, When Morgan asks Adam how he lost and begins trying to play it, the face begins to let out a frenzied scream. The disturbed look on Adam's face sells it
  • The April Fools promo for the spin-off series "Meet the Sess".
  • The entire review of Bomberman Act:Zero, but what really takes the cake is when Dr. Heimlich Betzer was onboard.
    Adam: Hello, Herr Doctor.
    Dr. Betzer: Gutentag, Adam.
    Adam: So, how do you feel about the fact that there are 99 levels and no save option?
    Dr. Betzer: That suck knows no bounds. It's like suck is right here, and that is somewhere right beyond it. It's like way over there. I mean, who would do that!?
    Adam: And what about the issue of the absence of local multiplayer? You can only play with someone else over Xbox Live.
    Dr. Betzer: Oh, that definitely sucks. I haven't been this disappointed since someone served me chocolate cake without the coconut!
    Adam: Now, can you actually quantify how bad these aspects suck?
    Dr. Betzer: Certainly. I'd say it falls somewhere between the film Lady in the Water and... the black plague.
    Adam: The Bubonic Plague? The one that killed hundreds of thousands of people in the Middle Ages?
    Dr. Betzer: Jawol. Bomberman has slightly less suck than that. Slightly less. Just a... a tiny bit of suck less. Less... is that how you say it in the English? Suck less? Less suck?
    Adam: Staggering figures, Doctor. And most likely accurate too.
    Dr. Betzer: Adam. I don't just make this stuff up off the glockenspiel.
  • The Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth review, where Adam Sessler manages to do the entire review in a passable pastiche of Lovecraft's style... except for when a monster briefly appears leaping across rooftops and he screams, "WHAT THE CHRIST WAS THAT?!?"
