SomecallmeJohnny (Juan Ortiz) is a game reviewer on YouTube. He is 1/3 of the trio (originally a duo) known as "The Super Gaming Bros", along with his younger brother Elliot. Originally, Johnny and Elliot teamed up to do reviews under the Super Gaming Brothers name, but when Elliot got older and more preoccupied with school, Johnny took up the reviewing mantle by himself under the name "Johnny Vs. the World". Typically, his reviews are informative but mix in some live action comedy and short animations drawn by himself. He reviews games from well-known franchises such as Sonic the Hedgehog, Super Mario Bros. and Metroid, sometimes dedicating a month/marathon to one specific series.He is also one of the primary members of BrainScratch Commentaries.While Johnny's reviews became their own thing, the Super Gaming Brothers name lived on and solely became their Let's Play channel, now with Johnny's long time friend Matthew Metelli as the third Super Gaming Brother. Tropes for that channel go to the Super Gaming Bros. page.Warning! Johnny is known for spoiling the plot of the games he reviews in each of his videos. As such, all spoilers for said games will be left unmarked.

 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_117aea3a
comment
Enjoy the Story, Skip the Game: Discussed In-Universe. Ironic, given how he usually views Kingdom Hearts, but this is how he views Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. While he considers the story to be okay, he hates the gameplay for being extremely dull, limited, and repetitive, to the point where he actually fell asleep recording footage. He largely finds the gameplay of Sonic and the Black Knight to be mediocre, even if it's an improvement over its predecessor, but he does legitimately enjoy the story and soundtrack. He even recommends just watching the cutscenes on YouTube rather than play the game.

comment
Heroic Mime: While Johnny doesn't mind this trope, he does feel that the writing comes off as awkward and forced when other characters interact with the silent main character as if they were speaking all along. He also doesn't like it when the silent character doesn't react or show emotion to what's happening or to what people are telling them. An example of this is his reviews for the Mother series where he feels he can't relate to the main characters since they don't talk much or react to anything, but was able to get on board with Mother 3 where Lucas expresses his distress over having to fight his Brainwashed and Crazy brother Claus.

Darker and Edgier
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_14beeefd
comment
Darker and Edgier: His Resident Evil 2 Remake video, while not devoid of comedy, is notably darker than any of his prior reviews. It begins with the world succumbing to a zombie apocalypse, his brothers turning into zombies that he had to kill, and he's completely shaken up by the situation he's in. Even his upbeat intro is completely cut off because he found it inappropriate for the setting.

The Worf Effect
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_178ca149
comment
The Worf Effect: Discussed. This is something that he states rubbed him the wrong way in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Since the past installments always made a big deal about when Snake had to destroy a single Metal Gear, Raiden being able to take out multiple advanced Metal Gear RAYs at once was something that weakened the Metal Gears as a concept to him.

Play the Game, Skip the Story: invoked How he feels about Bayonetta and it's sequel. He finds that the stories in both games don't really explain much to the player and don't make much sense, but the gameplay is so over-the-top and addictive for him that he can't really bring himself to care. With the third game, however, he finds it's become a detriment, as the underbaked narrative makes it hard to care about the characters he's playing as, and it doesn't help that he found parts of the gameplay, including Viola's playstyle and Infernal Summons, to be irritating. He discusses this in the Metal Gear retrospective. He criticizes this mindset, even stating in Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty that the games as a whole need to be judged by both story and gameplay because both are intrinsic to the franchise (as well as the high cutscene-to-gameplay ratio). However, he does feel this way about Metal Gear Solid V. He compliments gameplay, game design, and sheer variety of content with it, but criticizes the story both in the fact that many parts are unfinished and the parts that were don't add anything to the mythos due to the main character not being Big Boss. He also feels this way about the Kingdom Hearts series, saying how he stopped caring about the story after the second game, but loves the gameplay enough to go back to playing them. In his review of Megaman X 4, he considers the story to be one of the worst in the series, but greatly enjoys the gameplay. In his re-review of Metroid: Other M in 2021, he makes it clear that he really hates the game's story, but he finds the gameplay to be perfectly functional and even fun enough to enjoy.

Ass Pull: In-Universe. Twice over from Sonic Adventure 2. He found Eggman having a space shuttle in his base to be this. It doesn't make sense to him for a man with a teleporter to the Ark to have a shuttle to it, as it would be a major security risk. Sonic using Chaos Control, which is something he's never once done in his life and only learned about through watching Shadow is another one for him. Johnny even outright calls it this.

Halloween Episode: Three of them: their Left 4 Dead, Superman 64 (both for Halloween 2009), and Saw: The Video Game (for Halloween 2010) reviews. Not to mention five Castlevania reviews in the span of October 2011. The Ghost 'N Goblins & Super Ghouls N' Ghosts was not only the Halloween episode for 2013, but was the 50th Johnny Vs. review. Clearly, the only way to celebrate that was with a game Johnny despises.

As of recent, any collection that takes over a month is now called "[Insert Video Game Series] Marathon". This is lampshaded in the Pokémon Gold and Silver review: As Johnny has pointed out twice now, his internet handle, "Somecallmejohnny" should probably be changed to something more like "Mostcallmejohnny" or "Allcallmejohnny."

Older Than They Look: Lampshaded. When Johnny sees an image of Kirby and Super Smash Bros. creator Masahiro Sakurai at the age of 23, he's baffled that he looks younger in present time than he did then.

Even Evil Has Standards: The Tails Doll tells Johnny to just stop Ghosts 'n Goblins after beating the game the first time because the game (specifically some incredibly annoying enemy noises) are too torturous even for him.

Evolving Credits: Since going to the Johnny VS. format, an intro has been introduced with a few changes here and there. Starting with the The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker review, he now sports a full intro with him getting ready for the review, and showcasing clips of the game he's reviewing. The theme song is composed by musician Tee Lopes The updated version of the intro - with the slow jazz music rendition of the main theme, and all - is being used starting with Celeste review. In his revisit to Sonic Colors, the theme song has changed to a shorter rock cover.

Out of Focus: Subverted. Even though Elliot left the group for the main channel, he still appears as a cameo or for a special occasion, and of course the LP channel. The Big Rigs review even lampshades this by slapping the words "Super Gaming Brothers Forever" at the end.

Open Mouth, Insert Foot: He starts off his Haunted Castle & Castlevania Chronicles review video by saying that at one point, Derrick of GameXplain was marathoning the entire Castlevania franchise and Johnny challenged him to play the former arcade game, not expecting him to actually do it since for the longest time, it was only available via emulation before getting a PS4 re-release. So Derrick beat the game and challenged Johnny to review it on his channel. Johnny agrees to do it with a smug look on his face, and then he gets hit once and loses a giant chunk of his health.

comment
Cluster F-Bomb: Johnny swears so much in his review of Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels that inserts censor bleeps in his special censor mode. Due to the sheer difficulty of the game, Johnny swearing up a storm is justified. When he talks about the Special Stages in Sonic Heroes, he just can't contain his inner AVGN. His review of The Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures also uses this, but this time it's done partially to be In the Style of the Nerd. Thanks to the level design and frustrating controls of Sonic Advance 3, he goes full AVGN again and Ant Dude has to turn on Censored Mode till he cools off. He ended up going an another swear-laden rant from fear after seeing the return of the Poison Mushroom in Super Mario Maker 2. Gilly activated Censored Mode until he cooled down... then promptly broke it, so now Johnny's cursing is permanently censored. However, Johnny had the remote fixed at the beginning of Team Sonic Racing, so now his swearing is no longer censored.

Curb-Stomp Battle: Not a definite example, but when Johnny and Elliot fought the Sonic hat, the battle seemed to be suspiciously dominated by Johnny, and it only got more extreme when Elliot entered and they then literally stomped on him right in the middle of his Badass Boast. And when they fight the Sonic Hat again, now revealed to be the Tails Doll, he could only scratch them in comparison to their quadruple 9 attacks. In his Pokémon Gold and Silver review, he easily defeats Whitney's Miltank and Morty's Gengar, both notorious for being That One Boss. invoked

Blatant Lies: At the start of the Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location review, he states that there will be no jump scares. Come the end of the review... This was foreshadowed by Johnny swearing with his left hand raised, as opposed to his right hand as shown in previous FNAF reviews. In addition, he doesn't say "Trust me." like he did in his past FNAF videos.

Sound-Effect Bleep: He usually plays this for comedic purposes, but it's in full effect nowadays even in a non-comedic sense due to YouTube's demonetization laws in regards to excess profanity. However, it gives in-universe reasoning as Gilly the Kid shorted out the Censored Mode controls. Johnny is able to repair the Censored Mode control at the beginning of his Team Sonic Racing review.

Downplayed. While Johnny doesn't hate a game when it's incredibly easy (if anything, he considers it a good way to introduce newcomers to a series), he does feel that it diminishes his enjoyment due to lack of challenge. A good example is in the Kingdom Hearts series (specifically Birth By Sleep and Kingdom Hearts III), where there are so many ways to snap the games' difficulty in half that he has to pick the hardest difficulty to get any challenge out of it, and sometimes he can't even do that.

comment
Denial of Diagonal Attack: Being irritated by this in the first two Metroid games, he's absolutely ecstatic when it is inverted in Super Metroid. In fact, he provides the page quote. He's also irritated by it in The Legend of Zelda, feeling that it compounds the already stiff controls and leads to him getting unfairly dogpiled too many times. He finds it rather baffling that Mega Man can't shoot anywhere but directly in front of him without using special weapons.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early-Installment Weirdness: Johnny's style has notably improved between the time he started compared to now, but that's a given considering that time usually improves a person. Reviews posted before April 2011 were mostly made in cooperation with Elliot and were called "SGB Reviews". The now-familiar "Johnny VS" branding appeared in the Super Mario Bros. review. The Story Arc with Tails Doll was given less and less importance as time went by, and as of 2016, seems to have been concluded, though the character returns as of 2021, albeit no longer antagonistic. Johnny's earlier reviews had him way more foul-mouthed and leaning heavily on Accentuating the Negative as well as using gags and skits. This was likely due to being inspired by The Angry Video Game Nerd. Johnny would cut down on these elements and only use them when appropriate.

He's presented as a powerful Eldritch Abomination that embodies terrible Sonic games, but he can easily be defeated by turning a tv off, gets frustrated by bad game design as much as Johnny does, and after failing to break Johnny for the last time, calls it quits and disappears to parts unknown. By the time he returns in Johnny vs. Sonic Spinoffs, he's reduced to having to live with his former nemesis due to hard times.

Vindicated by History
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_5628a3
comment
Vindicated by History: His "Then and Now" videos (and his later "Round 2" videos) are all about seeing if a game does this over time, either through quality-of-life updates, DLC, or just a change in viewpoint thanks to new experiences. invoked Games like Sonic 4, Sonic Unleashed, and Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood all invert this as they've aged badly in his eyes. When he looks back at Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2, he doesn't find them as enjoyable as he did when he was younger or back when he reviewed them in 2008, so these are inversions. Downplayed with Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). He still considers it a bad game, but wasn't as angry about it as he was in the first review and admitted to enjoying some aspects of the gameplay to the point of revisiting this game from time to time (namely Sonic and Blaze's gameplay). Majora's Mask received a major case of this for him. When he first played it, he gave up after an hour and a half and never touched it again. After revisiting it years later, he considers it one of his favorite Zelda games. Super Ghouls and Ghosts became a much better game for him after slogging through the unfair hardness of Ghosts and Goblins. Sonic and the Black Knight was a game that he absolutely loathed when he first played it during his first SGB review for the game. When he re-reviewed it in 2020, while he considers it a mediocre game, he's considerably calmed down and is more appreciative of its positive qualities, such as its story writing (he considered it to be one of the better told Sonic stories in the latter half of the decade it was released in) and control improvements from Sonic and the Secret Rings. Metroid: Other M was a game he was pretty caustic towards, but during his re-review years later, he warmed up to it enough to consider it better than he initially thought and he now considers it "a good game buried under a whole bunch of bullshit."

Unintentionally Unsympathetic: invoked In the opening of Resident Evil 3, Jill comes across as this for him. While he does acknowledge that she went through a lot during the events of the first game, her blaming the civilians who didn't rise up against Umbrella (whom they didn't know was evil at all and couldn't do anything to stop them anyway) makes her come across as judgmental and needlessly harsh. This is a major reason why he doesn't like Steve Burnside in Code Veronica. While the game tries to make him a Lovable Rogue with a layer of tragedy when he has to kill his father, his overly cocky attitude combined with him being the cause for a lot of the problems he and Claire go through, in addition to trying to kiss Claire in her sleep, makes him too much of an asshole and creep for him to like. Not even his death could get Johnny to elicit any sympathy for him.

They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_6b12722e
comment
They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot invoked: One of the many problems he has with Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood is that there's barely any attempt to flesh out the surroundings and provide world-building. The only time any world-building is done is in an optional side-quest near the end of the game. A rather persistent problem he has with the Kingdom Hearts series is that all the Disney worlds visited are just abridged retellings of their respective movies with Sora and co. inserted in. He finds it to be both shallow and wasted potential for telling original stories set in those worlds. Something that bothers him about Pokémon Colosseum is that the region of Orre isn't explored well and is just treated as the standard "Stop Team Rocket" story. While he notes that this is practically a staple for the series, it's more disappointing here for him due to Orre being a much darker and amoral region, where stories of Black-and-Grey Morality are ripe for telling.

Franchise Original Sin
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_6c3c8acf
comment
Franchise Original Sin: invoked In Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, he finds the fact that a ten-year-old is stopping Cipher undermines them as villains. He states that this has been a thing with the franchise since day 1, but in past games, stopping the villains was just something the protagonist happened to do while trying to "catch 'em all" or become a Pokemon master, while in Gale of Darkness, it's expected of the main character and that just makes him question why the military or police can't handle it. When reviewing Resident Evil 2, he points out the sheer amount of ammunition and weapons present, coupled with having more action movie-esque cutscenes, makes this the entry where the series began to slowly gravitate towards being action-based rather than Resident Evil 4, where it's usually considered to have started being action-oriented.

Ending Fatigue
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_6d23fddb
comment
Ending Fatigue: As a general rule in his reviews; once Johnny thinks or utters "When does this end?", he shifts his brain to autopilot and rushes to finish the game to review it, rather than to enjoy it.invoked In Reviews, Mary Kate and Ashley: Sweet 16. He brought his brothers and Matt over to record footage for the game. However, Johnny notes that the game really wears out its welcome fast. This is his biggest problem with Ōkami, as defeating Orochi is just the first third of the game and it just keeps going. As he puts it, the game feels like it ends about three times before it actually ends.

Marathon Level
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_6dc206c9
comment
Marathon Level: Or rather, a Marathon Episode. Early episodes lasted about six to fifteen minutes at best; however, several of Johnny's reviews can get extremely long (he has to cover everything about the game as possible). The second review of Sonic '06 lasted 50 minutes. It held the title of his longest review for nine years. His review of Resident Evil 4 is his third longest clocking in at 49 minutes long. Played with regarding his Balan Wonderworld review. While it clocks in at 56 minutes, the review wasn't scripted and just had Johnny and Russ give their thoughts as they came along, making its length far less noteworthy in hindsight. His Final Fantasy IV review is his fourth longest review, being just over 48 minutes long. It wasn't until Final Fantasy VI when the record for longest review was broken, with it clocking in at over one hour and seven minutes. Seventeen minutes longer than the previous record holder, Sonic '06.

comment
Guide Dang It!: As his The Legend of Zelda and Castlevania II: Simon's Quest reviews show, he does not like it when the guide is practically needed to have fun in the game. He doesn't hate it, he just doesn't think a game that has a ton of it can be enjoyed very much without the guide. He frequently refers to these as "Guide Games".

Christmas Episode: The Batman: Arkham Origins & Batman: Arkham Origins Blackgate review, though that only translates to Johnny wearing the Santa hat and beard with his Batman mask worn on top of them. Not to mention it came out one day after Christmas of 2013. And the only real reason it was a Christmas Episode was because of timing and the fact that Origins took place on Christmas Eve. There's also the review of Merry Gear Solid (a Christmas-themed Metal Gear fan game) that came out Christmas Eve of 2015. Johnny reviewed it because of how appropriate it was considering it was Christmas season, and he was in the middle of the Metal Gear Marathon.

The Woobie: In-Universe. Johnny seems to have this mindset about Terra in Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, as almost any time he brings up Terra's involvement in the story, it sounds like he's expecting Terra to get kicked in the balls with a golf cleat. The story isn't nice to him and Johnny seems to feel bad for him for getting fucked over in each and every way possible. He also seems to view Krystal as this in Star Fox Command. As far as he knew, almost all of Krystal's paths end terribly for the character (She does get one where she marries Fox and her kid leads Star Fox's next generation), earning his pity.

100% Completion: An often Discussed Trope in games that he plays since on average he prefers doing this over simply beating the game when not pressed for time. With the likes of Super Mario Sunshine and Yoshi's Island. He'll bring up how just playing the games is a positive experience but trying to complete them ends up warping the games into a completely different experience that's not worth it. With the original Donkey Kong Country trilogy he notes that the first two games both had obtuse secrets required for completion but he's ultimately harder on the second game as it has major content locked behind completion while the first game was more for bragging rights.

 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_7daa1dfc
comment
They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: invoked He found it disappointing that Link was completely unexplored in Breath of the Wild, especially since he actually goes by Link and not a player name, signifying that this incarnation of the character has his own personality and identity instead of just being the player's means of interacting with the world around them. Found it really disheartening that Wes, the protagonist of Pokemon Colosseum, wasn't explored at all outside of the intro. Since the intro establishes him as being a former criminal who blows up his boss's base while smiling and stealing his old unit's equipment, Johnny was expecting a more fleshed out and darker take on a Pokemon protagonist. Instead, he ends up being the standard silent protagonist that Pokemon has always had with nothing from the intro explored about him.

Discontinuity Nod: The montage comparing the length of Metal Sonic's transformation into Metal Madness to an average load time in Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic Heroes itself and Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) is a reference to his original Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) review (where a similar montage was used to compare the average loading time in that game to loading times in the other games listed above) . The review in question has been taken down to make place for a better, more detailed review, so the reference is lost on new viewers.

Anvilicious: Discussed In-Universe. Johnny feels that the Genocide route in Undertale dives too deep into this trope, claiming that the game denies the player of anything fulfilling and beats it over their head that being a dick is wrong. While Johnny did understand that the whole point behind the Genocide route is to show how dark players have to be just to get 100% Completion and see everything, he feels that both the Genocide and the Pacifist routes should have equal gameplay and content and that despite whatever points the game was trying to make, he just wants to play the game as a game rather than being told what he is doing is wrong. Johnny brings up that Spider-Man: Miles Morales is rather unsubtle in its social commentary, but given real-world events and movements that were occurring when the game was released alongside the character and demographic the game is aimed towards, he finds that the messages it was trying to convey did ultimately need to be said.

Time Travel: He's not very fond of when this trope is used as a plot device. He feels it's a cheap way to retcon any of a game's prior storyline and feels that many writers never adhere to a set of rules when using the trope. He doesn't mind it in cases like Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped, where it's less of a plot device and more of an excuse to have a large variety of levels with different themes.

Fan Boy: It should be clear that Johnny (and to a lesser extent, Elliot) is a fan of Sonic games, though not a gullible, biased one. Johnny's a big fan of the Metroid series. Viewers can tell in his AM2R review that he's been going through some "Metroid withdrawal" and is very giddy when playing. Besides Metroid, he's also a major fan of the Metroidvania genre in general, as he loves the feeling of exploring the unknown, having several ways to reach your destination that don't immediately connect with each other, and getting stronger along the way because of said exploration. This has led to many of his fans recommending different Metroidvania games for him to try out. Eliot is shown in the Naruto: Clash of Ninja review to be a big Naruto fan, helping out for the review since Johnny lacks any knowledge on the series. Johnny is also a big fan of PlatinumGames thanks to their high-octane Stylish Action games. He's bought multiple copies of their games both for reviewing the differences between versions and to show his support for them.

Continuity Nod: In The Legend of Zelda review, his save file from his Let's Play of the game is still present, which Johnny notes. History Repeats in the Zelda II Let's Play. Elliot thought the narrator in the Bastion review was the Tails Doll, referencing the Arc Villain. The Tails Doll references the exact methods he was defeated with previously (in order) in the Ghost 'N Goblins & Super Ghouls N' Ghosts review.

This Is Gonna Suck: His Shadow the Hedgehog review begins with him lying as if dead on his couch. The next review, Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), starts with him preparing coffee, Pepsi and wine to drink throughout the review. When looking at Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels, the only thing he can say in the beginning is "Not this game, not this game!" Even before his review for it, he's made it clear that he absolutely cannot stand Ghosts 'n Goblins.

Cool Uncle: Most of the series Johnny grew up with and loved was introduced by his uncle. Johnny even thanks his uncle by reviewing the classic Castlevania games. His uncle even helped Johnny with his reviews of Sonic the Hedgehog CD and Bubsy in Fractured Furry Tales by loaning him highly-valuable hardware like the JVC X-Eye and the Atari Jaguar CD. Uncle Greg would later go on to feature in some of the Super Gaming Bros. playthroughs, proving himself every bit as cool as Johnny made him sound and becoming an Ensemble Dark Horse in his own right!

Status Quo Is God: Johnny's Censored Mode remote control is broken during his Super Mario Maker 2 review by Gilly the Kid. This might have been used to justify John swearing less and using bleeping on a permanent basis due to YouTube's policies. However, Johnny later ended up going back on that decision and, a few episodes later, his Team Sonic Racing review starts with him repairing the remote and disabling Censored Mode.

Accentuate the Negative: A thankful aversion for the most part. Johnny will be pretty even-handed with the games he plays, going as far to talk about aspects games will do right. However, it's played straight when it's a game he thoroughly despises. He admits in his re-review of Sonic and the Black Knight that in the past he tended to act like an, in his own words, "edgy bitch lord", to get his point across.

comment
It's Easy, So It Sucks!: invoked Downplayed. While Johnny doesn't hate a game when it's incredibly easy (if anything, he considers it a good way to introduce newcomers to a series), he does feel that it diminishes his enjoyment due to lack of challenge. A good example is in the Kingdom Hearts series (specifically Birth By Sleep and Kingdom Hearts III), where there are so many ways to snap the games' difficulty in half that he has to pick the hardest difficulty to get any challenge out of it, and sometimes he can't even do that. Played straight with Final Fantasy Mystic Quest. While being easy to pick up and play is the entire point, Johnny finds that it's just as easy to put down due to being borderline brain dead since everything can be beaten just by pushing the basic attack button with no strategy to anything.

Berserk Button: Basically, any game that is of very poor quality (or of immense and/or unfair difficulty) is enough to rile up his rage to awe-striking levels: His whole Super Mario Bros. 2 (The Lost Levels) review, to the point where it had to be Censored for Comedy. He HATES Slicers! (Though to be fair, he doesn't rage over them in the modern Sonic games, due to the homing attack. Johnny just seems to be annoyed and only calls them names in those instances) The Special Stages in Sonic Heroes. In fact, he needed to be censored again, using the same gestures as before to turn the "Censored Mode" on and off. His Second Big Rigs Review. Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), more so for the SGB version of the review than the Johnny Vs. version, though he still gets very riled up at certain aspects of the game. Reviewing the story actually infuriated him far more than the glitched gameplay. He has openly admitted that he hates Shadow the Hedgehog the most, even more so than Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). And it shows: Sonic Genesis. He flat-out admits that he cannot contain his anger at the game, even noting that he's usually the opposite. He considers playing Superman 64 to be a nightmare incarnate. He also really hates the Ice Palace from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, stopping the review to rant on how much he hates it. Mega Man & Bass, which he considers the low point of Mega Man (Classic), with most of his fury directed towards King's fortress. He absolutely EXPLODES in the Ghost 'N Goblins & Super Ghouls N' Ghosts review; specifically, at the former because of the sheer rage-inducing unfairness of the difficulty. It's actually quite frightening... He rages during the Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg review when he keeps falling off the ledge due to Billy's horizontal spin. He calms down by cooking fried eggs. He even says the ledge problem and the fact that he has to wait for the egg to respawn pisses him off almost as much as Ghosts 'n Goblins. Ecco the Dolphin. Scary childhood memories + Frustrating design = One incredibly furious Johnny. He reaches his breaking point when he gets to the final boss and accidentally kills himself since it wasn't clear what he was suppose to do. Kicking him back to the start of the auto-scrolling stage. His reaction to Roy Campbell married to Rosemary. Mainly because he suffered through the Raiden codecs with her from Sons of Liberty. The problems of Sonic Advance 3 made Johnny blow his stack to the point of AntDude having to censor him for it. 100% Completion of Super Mario Sunshine and pretty much getting a postcard for your troubles. This largely stems from a bad childhood memory of wasting an entire summer doing it out of curiosity of what he could get if he managed. Not helped that some of the missions were annoying to complete. In fact during the review hes states they can "FUCK RIGHT OFF!"

Must Have Caffeine: Part of his motif. He's usually always seen with a cup of coffee in his later reviews. So much so that it was used as a banner on his website, YouTube channel, and Twitter page. He's seen getting a cup in his intros (with the second even putting more emphasis on it) and even the image of the second intro has him holding a cup. Heck, he's holding one on the image of this very page if that wasn't a big enough clue for you and part of his slogan.

Mind Screw: While Johnny does believe that video games can be True Art, he doesn't like it when games have stories that leave everything vague and open to interpretation since that usually makes the story feel incoherent and overly pretentious to him; though he does acknowledge that it can work sometimes. He criticized Braid's story for doing this and praised Celeste's story for not doing this when it easily could have, while acknowledging that Celeste does leave a few things vague too (namely the reason Madeline was climbing the mountain, though he does offer his own perspective on that). note This may stem from the fact that Johnny, by his own admission, is not a sophisticated person; and as such, isn't comfortable with analyzing and interpreting games that are surreal and thematically heavy in nature. This is why he always includes a disclaimer stating he's only doing a basic plot summary when he reviews games like this.

Scrappy Mechanic: In-Universe. Johnny despises the fact Mario can't just lose what is essentially a mini-game; he has to die from it. As revealed in Johnny's review of Sonic Adventure 2, he absolutely despises grading rubrics in video games.

comment
Big "NO!"!: Johnny's reaction to the Metroid: Other M delay. This turns out to be ironic in hindsight, considering how much he dislikes the game when he reviews it. Our protagonist; only briefly phased by a demonic monstrosity from hell sent by the Demon Video Game Overlords gives him the big scary speech with fire surrounding him, but when he flips that N64 cartridge over, his screams of despair carry over five city blocks.

I Lied: In his Five Nights at Freddy's reviews, Johnny swears using his right hand that there will not be any jump scares in the video. This is true except for his review of Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location where he jump scares the viewers twice. If you pay attention to his solemn swear at the start of that video, however, you'll see he uses his left hand.

Shout-Out
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_c75df49a
comment
Shout-Out: Johnny was seen drinking beer from a suspiciously green bottle while waiting for the night to change to day in his Castlevania II: Simon's Quest review. He then subverts it by stating that it isn't Rolling Rock. Appropriate, as in the same review, he mentions that he was inspired by the Nerd. Several to the Pokemon Anime in his Month of Pokemon. It's lampshaded twice; the first was by Johnny, the second was by Ted. In the Metroid Prime review, Johnny begins the story synopsis with: "While travelling in the reaches of space..." Pretty subtle. In the Castlevania II: Simon's Quest review, when he's talking about possessing parts of Dracula's body, he pronounces “possess� as “prossess,� a nod to the fact that that's how the game spells the word (only) when acquiring a part of Dracula's body. The 2013 April Fools video is titled "Johnny Vs. The Meaning of Life," with Johnny's cartoon likeness standing side-by-side with the letter 42. In the Superman 64 review, he mentions that a certain someone pronounces the developer's name of ''Superman 64'' (Ti-Tus) as "Tit-us." Fans of BrainScratch Commentaries and Johnny's LP channel will get a couple of bonuses when watching the Ocarina of Time review. In it, he references his "Leaf Technology" joke in the BSC commentary of the game when he barely made the deadline for the side quest for the best sword in the game, and when Johnny is saying the Light Sage's name, Rauru, he pronounces it as "Rar-u" calling back to his Zelda II LP. In the Johnny Vs. reviews, every time a new person appears in his review, the video does a freeze-frame of the person with their name or a title appearing on the bottom. With the odd exception of Ryan from BrainScratch Commentaries. In any reviews with Ryan, they end with the instrumental version of 'We Are' from One Piece and they do a quick back and forth similar to how next episode previews go for the series. Johnny will occasionally make references to Dragon Ball outside his reviews of Dragon Ball games, like offhandedly saying the reason for Tails being able to fly much longer but at the cost of not being able to touch the ground in Tails' Skypatrol was due to training at 1000x gravity and asking Goku to give him his energy while holding his hands up and desperately trying to get the motion controls to work in his Sonic Riders review. He said the slogan, as part of EarthBound's infamously failed gross-out based marketing, "This game stinks" sounded like a one-sentence review by Jay Sherman.

Series Continuity Error: During the Super Mario Maker 2 review, Gillythekid accidentally breaks Johnny's Censored Mode remote control and subsequently vanishes from existence, with Johnny mentioning he is still trapped in another dimension in his round 2 review of Shovel Knight. Gilly suddenly reappears ten months later during the Sonic the Hedgehog 2, mentioning he escaped Purgatory simply because Johnny was reviewing the game. However between the two, there was a Kirby's Dream Land review, where Gilly simply appears like nothing happened as one of Johnny's friends pressuring him to do a Kirby marathon.

Damned by Faint Praise: For as much as he doesn't like Sonic '06 and especially Shadow the Hedgehog, he considers the fact that you have complete freedom of movement in those games as one of the main things that make them far superior to Sonic and the Secret Rings. He does stress that he doesn't believe that this makes them good games by comparison, just that he considers Secret Rings to be much worse.

Lighter and Softer: Discussed regarding Sonic in his Team Sonic Racing video. He personally prefers that the series stay in a lighthearted state, as it's where he feels Sonic works best. While he acknowledges that there's a lot of dislike towards this direction, he considers the whimsical style to be more in line with what he likes from the series than the darker style of Sonic Adventure 2 or Sonic '06.

This is a major reason why he doesn't like Steve Burnside in Code Veronica. While the game tries to make him a Lovable Rogue with a layer of tragedy when he has to kill his father, his overly cocky attitude combined with him being the cause for a lot of the problems he and Claire go through, in addition to trying to kiss Claire in her sleep, makes him too much of an asshole and creep for him to like. Not even his death could get Johnny to elicit any sympathy for him.

Continuity Snarl: Something he tends to lampshade is whenever there's a retcon or story change. Brings up how Batman's awareness of Hugo Strange in Arkham Asylum via the character bios is completely removed in Arkham City since it's treated like their first-ever encounter. This especially comes up when it comes to Sonic. In Sonic Rivals, Eggman Nega being from Silver's future instead of Blaze's dimension. In Sonic Forces where Classic Sonic is changed to now be from another dimension instead of from the past.

Art Evolution: Johnny's review intros shows a cartoon version of himself standing next to the cover of the game he is reviewing for that episode. Johnny's cartoon self had several exaggerated features typically found in cartoon characters, but as he gotten more practice, the style gradually shifted into a less exaggerated version of himself. His newest style starting with his Sonic Colors re-review shifts back to a somewhat more cartoon-like design that is also more expressive, with the expression on the thumbnail of the video giving a minor indicator on his feelings toward what he's reviewing.

 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_e4c03674
comment
It's Hard, So It Sucks!: Usually, it takes a lot for Johnny to consider a game this. The few times he does though...invoked Ghosts 'n Goblins is perhaps the biggest example of this in his entire channel's run. The constantly respawning enemies, the ridiculously stiff and unresponsive controls, the marathon levels that were the final two stages, the needing the Shield to beat the game, and having to play the entire game twice made Johnny absolutely loath the game. Super Mario Bros.: The Lost Levels. While he acknowledges that he's the minority, it doesn't stop him from hating the game for its borderline unfair difficulty. To really drive this home, this is also the review where he introduced his "Censored Mode", given how much the game's high difficulty pissed him off and ramped up his swearing. This is also a major reason why he considers Mega Man & Bass to be the low point of the classic series, as he finds the game too unfairly hard, especially as Mega Man given how much the level design comes across as built more for Bass and his abilities, for its own good.

Fake Difficulty
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_e4e86215
comment
Fake Difficulty: Hates it from the traditional angle. If he's losing because he's not in complete control of the events, he'll cry foul. One of the biggest cases of this for him was Ghosts 'n Goblins, as all the control issues, coupled with RNG enemy appearances and needing specific tools to finish the game (coupled with having to do the game twice) practically made it a phobia of his. He also hates the idea of bosses having insanely bullshit attacks or tactics that are only avoidable by repeated dodging. Using his Birth By Sleep review as an example: To him, that's less of a competent boss battle and more of a circus act. Mega Man X6 for him thanks to asinine enemy placement, stage hazards that could only be crossed with specific armor types, frustrating nightmare effects, and the no-win scenarios with High Max made the game a slog to go through without exploiting glitches.

Hub Level
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_e7eb0474
comment
Hub Level: He really hates these, especially in Sonic games, as they feel like Fake Longevity to him. He's criticized Sonic '06's hubs for being spacious and dull (and being to blame for his dislike of hub worlds in the first place), and Sonic Advance 3's hubs for being in a 2D Sonic game of all things when they just aren't needed. That said, he doesn't mind the hubs in Sonic Adventure and Sonic Unleashed thanks to being small, confined, and easy to navigate.

O.O.C. Is Serious Business
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_e83f211c
comment
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: Usually, when reviewing a game, Johnny does what he calls an "establishing shot;" i.e. showing his copy of the game going into the console before starting up the review (if it's a digital game, he'll either skip it or show the game is selected in the menu of the console it's stored in.). When it came time to review Sonic and the Secret Rings, he instead let the game fall onto the floor. In the review, he states that he considers it worse than Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) and Shadow the Hedgehog. Good control in a video game is of the utmost importance to him. Super Mario Sunshine also has this happen, Johnny confronts the game over how it scarred him with it offering a canteen instead of a Versus Title Intro. Balan Wonderworld is a particular doozy, considering the title of the video: "Balan Wonderworld...Well, We Tried."

All Just a Dream: His review of Resident Evil 2 (Remake) where most of it is him stuck in the middle of a Zombie Apocalypse and having to fend off his zombified brothers, Mark and Elliot. He wakes up after it looks like he's cornered and meets up with Mark who gives him some coffee before suddenly turning into a zombie and attacking him.

Running Gagged: In his review of Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Johnny finally shoots the odd disembodied voice who keeps saying "Screw Attack!", with the NES Zapper. And in the event the now-dead voice got any ideas to show up in his Federation Force review, Johnny mentions the Screw Attack and almost immediately the video cuts to him on his futon very seriously stating that he "shot that asshole dead."

comment
War Is Hell: He occasionally lampshades when a game gets particularly preachy with this trope, such as the Metal Gear games (with him considering The Phantom Pain to be the most blatant Kojima gets with the message). He playfully jabs at this using the Ace Ventura: Pet Detective "War...IS HELL!" clip.

Accidentally-Correct Writing: invoked Johnny's reaction to the Slicer in Shantae has him going into a rage, saying that next time, he'll be finding Metroids in Kirby. One mission in Kirby's Dream Land 3 was defeating Metroids, which became a Brick Joke in the review proper. Johnny's struggles on Mt. Itoi from Earthbound Beginnings has him question if that area was even balanced. As it turns out, it wasn't.

Running Gag
 SomecallmeJohnny (Web Video) / int_f9f2c33
comment
Running Gag: Whenever he mentions the iconic Screw Attack power-up of Metroid fame, a cool voice with a slight echo says: "Screw Attack!" It ultimately came to an end at the hands of Johnny's NES Zapper in his Prime 3 review and confirmed dead (again) in his Federation Force video. Every time Metroids appeared in his Month of Metr- (cue scary music) AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH! OH GOD NO! NOT THEM!! NOT THE ORIGINAL METROIDS!!!!!! THEY TAKE 5 MISSILES AND THE ICE BEAM!!!! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!!!!!!!!!! After commenting (and then demonstrating) that the Unknown Item pickup jingle from Metroid: Zero Mission would be great for increasing the drama in any situation, it's then used in the Sonic the Hedgehog 3 review, in the Super Mario Bros. review, at the reveal of his Pokémon Trading Cards, and in the Mega Man 9 and 10 review. In the Mega Man Marathon, whenever one of the games misspells or mispronounces Dr. Wily's name, Johnny pronounces Wily's name in that manner for the rest of the review. After Johnny used the official subtitle for the Master Sword in his A Link to the Past review ("the blade of evil's bane") it gets a more silly and/or more immediate subtitle with every future appearance, e.g. "the blade that fucking matters," or "the blade that tips 20%." "There's always a room for a Bob". Johnny names characters like this whenever the games he's reviewing have a contemporary setting. He one-ups it by calling his Reshiram "Bob". Every time Johnny pulls a Screw This, I'm Outta Here, whether he's getting jumpscared by Unagi or running off to get his copy of Metroid Dread, his chair will be seen spinning in circles with nobody sitting on it. Whenever the topic of Metroid Dread or it’s reveal comes up, expect him to play the clip of his reaction to said reveal.

Brick Joke: The Sonic Figurine appears in Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode II when Johnny had no clue how to end the review, a few episodes later the figurine falls near a box, which leads to the Pokemon Training Card Game review.
