--> '''pipes!''': "Watch out for the [[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Anti-Spirals!]]"
** Music from Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion plays during some of the battles in the Oblivon LP.

-->'''Evek:''' So, they don't take into account any gravity field from the moon, it's just sitting there in the atmosphere?
-->'''Ferr:''' You're a tree. You're a boy who is a tree. And the moon has a giant face on it. No, there is no gravity field.
-->'''Evek:''' ...touché.

-->'''Ferr:''' Do they have to put the eggs back inside of her so she can sing?\\

'''Evek:''' Heh. Open wide.
-->'''Maxwell:''' Fish girl, lost her voice and you need to put eggs inside of her.
-->'''Evek:''' Open wide...
-->'''Ferr:''' Wrong end.

-->'''All:''' NOOOOOOOOOO!
-->'''Maxwell:''' Maybe that's not him.
--> (Finds a Barrel labeled "Drew's Body Parts")
-->'''All:''' *gasp* NOOOOOOOOO!

-->'''pipes!(as Tiny Archer):''' There appear to be dinosaurs, bipedal dinosaurs coming over the ridge! Back to you Tom.

-->'''pipes!:''' ''(over all the laughter from everyone else)'' [[OhCrap HOLY SHIT, NO!]] NOOOOOOO, THIS IS NOT WHAT I WANTED!!

-->'''Maxwell:''' Ah-[=NOOOOOoooo=] I didn't want that!

-->'''Maxwell (a few minutes later):''' [[SurvivalMantra Three days]]...

-->'''Maxwell:''' Oh hey, it's shooting the shockwave of death! Get the hell out because it's got a one-hit-kill.
-->'''Russ:''' Those are always fun.
-->'''Ainsley Mctree:''' It's like 9/11, but worse...
--> (Laughter and groaning)
-->'''Russ:''' TOO SOON! %%Do not link to "Too Soon" here, since it's no longer a trope
-->'''Ainsley Mctree:''' I feel bad now. I should go.

-->'''pipes!:''' That's a horrible laugh, I don't like that!

-->'''Maxewll:''' Okay, Evek is black guy, Ferr is white guy, I'm red guy and the CPU is playing as blue guy.\\

-->'''Ferr:''' Next time they should try to bee good.\\

-->'''Maxwell''': (deadpan, to pipes!) You're gonna go to Pun Jail.

--->"Whenever the mic input volume meter jumps up into the red, [[LoudnessWar I know I've told a good joke]]."

--> '''Ferr''': They're flying pretty close together. Maybe they should give each other some... ''space''.\\

--->'''pipes!''' "This house or building needs to have more death traps." Y'know, at least three pendulums minimum, instead of spreading woodchips on playgrounds...

-->pipes!: "I died for your sins, you titshitting, fucknutting cuntwaffle!"

-->'''pipes!''': Looks like he died of a case of a broken heart.
-->'''Everyone:''' [[Series/CSIMiami YEEEEEAAAAHHH!]]

-->'''Maxwell:''' I think I'll run through this wall now.
-->'''Diabetus:''' Link can... he can fade through solid matter. Just like that guy from ''Series/{{Heroes}}''.
-->'''Maxwell:''' Hmm. I miss out on so many references, 'cause, I don't even have cable TV right now, and I, like, haven't even seen a lot of movies... %%Yeah, we know, Heroes is network TV, just go with it.
-->'''Diabetus:''' Dude, are you Amish!?

-->'''pipes!:''' Did you know that if you put a sheep in the Jack [=LaLanne=] power juicer you will not only get a glass of delicious sheep flavored juice but also a sweater.

-->'''Maxwell:''' Every time I see [Signs that a game crashed because of him] I'm just thinking I've won.

--> doomisland came to play Majora's Mask with us, and then disappeared in a puff of smoke. We miss him.

** There's also the orchestrated version of the [[LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya Mikuru-Chan]] theme played over the first boss battles in VideoGame/{{Prototype}}.

* SuperOCD: Maxwell's constant inventory rearranging during ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4''.

* NoPronunciationGuide[=/=]{{Wingdinglish}}: According to the ''Majora's Mask'' LP, pipes!'s screenname has also been spelt with literal [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_bar pipes (|||)]]

* [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim Why Don't They Just Shoot Him With The Cannons?]]: Ferr asks this about the airships in ''New Super Mario Bros. Wii''.

-->'''Russ:''' TOO SOON! %%Do not link to "Too Soon" here, since it's no longer a trope and never was

** To elaborate on this, the joke exists because Maxwell is a master of most games in the NES/SNES days (See [[http://freelanceastronauts.com/view.php?id=335 this video]] for proof), but [[MasterOfNone not particularly great at more modern games.]]
*** Actually he's amazingly talented, at breaking them.
* ItsQuietTooQuiet: Said word for word in ''Serious Sam''
** YouJustHadToSayIt

*** They recently began a new LP of Mass Effect, featuring the far-in-the-future descendant, Dongs Shepard. She is considerably better looking than her ancestors. Oddly, the first streaming of the game featured Dongs as a woman, but, when it came up on Website/YouTube, the first hour of the LP was replaced with a different LP, where Dongs is some sort of Half-Of-Everything creature with no neck.

* MissingEpisode: Their first recording of [[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaOcarinaOfTime The Shadow Temple]] failed. They did record it again, but [[LudicrousSpeed they sped up to the point of the video being only a minute long]], with SoundtrackDissonance/YaketySax playing over it. Oh, WhatCouldHaveBeen.

* Silence, followed by a hard slap.*
