History LetsPlay / YoVideogames

** There's also Max's sister Tess (X-23 from WebVideo/AssistMe), who is an avid VideoGame/CrazyTaxi fan, but is only well-versed in games she and Max have played together growing up, like VideoGame/SuperMarioBros.

* ''[[VideoGame/ResidentEvil REmake]]'', ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil2'', ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil3'', ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil4'', ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil5'', ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'', ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilOperationRaccoonCity'' and ''VideoGame/ResidentEvilRevelations''

* ADateWithRosiePalms: Their playthrough of Batman Arkham VR heavily features the motion of it, but not the actual act.

** $69.69: A snippet of the song "Max, Don't Have Sex With Your Ex" by E-ROTIC of ''VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution'' fame.

* CrossOver: Max is buddies with the [[TwoBestFriendsPlay Super Best Friends]], who will come over and hang out every once in a while.

* NamesTheSame: [[invoked]] PlayedForLaughs when the guys played through ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6'', which features an antagonist named Derek C. ''Simmons''.
-->'''Leon:''' No! It wasn't her -- it was Simmons!\\
'''Matt:''' SLANDER! LIES!

* ''VideoGame/{{Bloodborne}}

* ''VideoGame/HouseOfTheDead 1,2,3,4'' and ''[[VideoGame/HouseOfTheDeadOverkill Overkill]]''

Yo Videogames is the alternate channel of [[LetsPlay/TheOnlineWarrior Maximilian Christiansen]] (aka "[[https://www.youtube.com/user/Miles923 Maximilian Dood]]") created November 24, 2011, dedicated to playthroughs of video games that aren't of the Fighting variety. Usually accompanied by Dr. Doom's actor for ''WebVideo/AssistMe'' Matthew Simmons (Although there may be more people or just Max on his own), Max goes through various videogames, either by playing them himself or by coaching someone else (usually Simmons). When it comes to livestreaming (which happens on Max's channel on most weekends), Max and Simmons are usually joined by their friends Kenny O'Brian and Steve Springer. In 2017 Max's wife Jessica started a cooking channel dubbed "[[https://www.twitch.tv/jae_benny PB & JaeJae]]", where she's joined by guest chefs like Max's sister Tess or (on Mother's Day) by Max's mother. On August 2nd 2020, Jessica gave birth to her and Max's first child, a daughter named [[Franchise/{{Alien}} Ripley]] Fawn Christiansen.

** $200 and higher. An animation of Max's EvilCounterpart [[EvilOverlord The]] [[StopHavingFunGuys Scrublord]], with Cloud's head on his spiked pauldron, walking out from the shadows, punching the fourth wall and giving his best EvilLaugh. All while the beginning of ''[[KillerInstinct Trailblazer]]'' plays, followed by the [[FinishingMove No Mercy]] ScareChord and finally the ''KI 2013'' announcer saying "Godlike."

* FiveManBand: Taking into account all of Max's recurring players, we have:
** TheHero: Max, obviously.
** TheLancer: Matt.
** TheSmartGuy: Mike (Wesker's actor in WebVideo/AssistMe).
** TheBigGuy: Shared by Steve and Kenny.
** TheChick: Shared by Max's wife, Jessica and his sister, Tess.
** SixthRanger: Andrew.
** TeamPet: Benny and Luna.

* NoYou: Kenny tends to lapse into this when he's upset, even if it makes absolutely no sense. For example, while playing ''Overcooked'':

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Most of the games in Max's catalogue have yet to see the end. Granted, Max's library is HUGE, to the point where the amount of game he's actually finished can be counted on one hand easily.

* CrazyAwesome: About 90% of what Asura does in ''VideoGame/AsurasWrath'' is due to [[AwesomenessIsVolatile The Power of HYPE!]]

** ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVII'' is Max's all-time favorite video game, so he was understandably moved to tears when Yoshinori Kitase, the director of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'', asked him for a picture and revealed that the development team used his reaction to the reveal trailer as inspiration whenever they were feeling down.

* HalloweenCosplay: In a Mario Party 8 playthrough, [[Film/TheBigLebowski Max is dressed as Jeff Lebowski, Simmons as Walter Sobchak]], [[Film/LiloAndStitch Jessica as Stitch]] and [[VideoGame/TheKingOfFighters Steve as K]]. Oh, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking Benny is a lobster]].

* CatchPhrase: The guys each have a couple:

** Max: "Dank horseshit", "You a bitch!"

** Kenny: "Five time!" "Twenty-one!"

* {{Troll}}: Another RunningGag is Max trying to weed out disruptive people in the chatroom by saying deliberately provocative things about something popular to bait them into responding; ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosMelee'' is a recurring target, with Max saying it's not a real fighting game and that people who play it don't shower. This usually includes a moment where Max {{Stage Whisper}}s into the microphone "I'm trying to get rid of the twelve-year-olds, chatroom!"

* VitriolicBestBuds: In a strange sense, Max has this relationship with his regular chat audience: they troll each other back and forth, with Max usually acting like an abusive father and the chatroom providing fake "hints" and teasing him when he's killed in games. However, when he's [[SincerityMode being serious]] Max has said that his community is probably the best on all of Twitch, and he enjoys actually getting to read the chat and engage with the viewers, while the audience genuinely appreciates his honest, friendly, and open approach to streaming.
