Tyler points out that in Hero Story you play as Sonic and defeat Shadow in a battle, yet in Dark Story you do a PerspectiveFlip and beat Sonic, and wonders which one is canon.

-->'''Josh''': That's it for this episode. Thank you guys for watching. I'm JoshJepson.

** [[GwenStefani "This shit is bananas, B-A-N-A-N-A-S",]] [[MadLibsCatchPhrase with the letters that are spelled out changing every time.]]

* UsefulNotes/FurryFandom: They speak about it in Episode 9 (Part 1), where they guess it's more a fetish and about the porn, stating "whatever floats your boat". [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Thus came an influx of comments stating that they are furries and that it's not all about the porn, instead it being more about liking the characters and simply having fun.]]

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAci47ddYnQ&t=77s The first thing they say in the entire versus]] is in unison.

* MythologyGag: Josh pulls off a double-layered one when he starts referring to jiggies and notes as "[[VideoGame/SuperMario64 stars and coins]]" - first calling back to {{Donnabellez}} also using terminology from the wrong game (shines instead of stars) and secondly calling back to his own solo LP of the Banjo games, where he could never remember the names of items and indulged in RapidFireNameGuessing all the time.

* ''[[VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaTwilightPrincess The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess HD]]'' - Ongoing

Finally, on February 2, 2013, Tyler and Josh announced their own channel and an official name for their collective versus, "Project Rivals".

And the games began.

-->'''Josh''': No, it'll kill your ass, my ass is perfectly fine. I have a great ass.
