Well, it's a reference to a scene in Gurren Lagann that referenced Ashita no Joe so it sort of is.

Crymetina Critques and the Super Seduce stream are pretty much my favorite Matt stuff so far. There isn't an independent playlist for Super Seducer though. Leanna making fun of fashions and the outright mocking of PUA's is great.

For Pat the best intro has to what he has titled Scumbag Streams. Him opening lootboxes while people enable his addiction.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=playlist

If you're going to include Paige it has to be RE5. The shadow puzzles are the quality you can expect from her.

Nier (Liam + Pat), FFX (Matt + Woolie), Ride To Hell (Matt + Pat), Until Dawn (Matt + Pat), MMX Command Mission (Woolie + Liam), A Way Out (Pat + Woolie), any of the Soulsbornes (though should probably go through them chronologically, so 2 > Bloodborne > 3 > 1) (Pat+Woolie with Matt as occasional guest), Evil Within 1 and 2 (Matt + Pat), all of The Walking Dead (Matt + Pat), and the Sadness Saga (Heavy Rain > Indigo Prophecy > Beyond: Two Souls > Woolie's Heavy Rain Stream > Omikron > Detroit > Detroit: 2nd Gig).

Those are all my quickest hits, most of it is more recent but it's all still really good.

As soon as I think about this, I've forgotten almost every Let's Play I've ever seen but whatever.

The Sadness Saga
Since you said "and why" I'm now going to go into the "and why" for every David Cage game.

Heavy Rain (Matt and Pat): They did a Machinima video for this too and the jokes kept coming, so they decided to do a full LP. Pat defends this game more often than he probably should, and to be fair (in my opinion), Heavy Rain is the least worst one because it cuts out the Mystical Bullshit that Cage can never seem to get right and, blessedly, this game has only one real antagonist with a bunch of red herrings. It's still nonsense but it's more heavily edited nonsense and it gets some good bits from the boys, especially since Pat knows the lore behind what was written out.

Indigo Prophecy (Matt, Pat, Woolie): This is where the "the apartment is attacking the protagonist" bit comes from. The game starts off very strong, we ride in so high, and then it divebombs around the halfway mark. Mayan cults! Demons, I think?? The end of the world, I guess? Aliens, too! And A.I. monsters? Why the gently caress not?! It's David Cage Unleashed. Why do people defend this game again?

Beyond: Two Souls (Matt, Pat, Woolie): Lord, this loving game. After Heavy Rain, Cage comes back with his Mystical Bullshit again, this time about a girl and her ghost. Somehow roping in Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe (yes, really) to act in his mo-capped 8-hour-long movie, not only does Cage bring us a story about the world's most unfortunate girl and all that implies with his track record for writing women, he brings it to us in non-chronological order. Yikes. The boys spice things up by controlling the two characters separately. Pat is a little girl and Woolie is his Stand. Matt refuses to by in to how hype this is and, to be fair, he's right. This is where they start taking bets on what's going to happen given their past experience with the Cageverse.

Omikron: The Nomad Soul (Matt, Pat, Woolie): Before Cage experimented with a more cinematic format, there was Omikron. An adventure game spanning an open fantasy/sci-fi world with puzzles and two vastly different modes for combat. It's, uh....bad. Entertainingly bad, but there's still so much lore and backstory that you actually have to read in the sometimes-used almost unreadable font that what's happening at any given time is exhausting to keep track of. If you want a more thorough, less torturous playthrough, supergreatfriend did an LP as well, and he did a pretty reasonable job of keeping up with what was happening. But SGF is a very different breed of LPer, more like the calm eye of a hurricane as he plays through vast quantities of "bad games". For comparison, it takes the combined powers of the Best Friends to get through this mess of a game, Woolie for the melee fighting, Pat for the shooty bits, and Matt for, like, just walking around in this game, man. There's a game-breaking bug that's basically a rowdy hitbox that sticks out way too far. This game is bad but hey, David Bowie's in it.

Detroit: Become Human and 2nd Gig (Matt, Pat, Woolie): Hey! Did you want Cage to write a story about the struggles of modern day racism, but with robots? No? Me neither! But here we are, and by now, the Best Friends are contractually obligated to play this. Interestingly, at the end of every chapter, you get to see what choices lead you down which paths, and that's where 2nd Gig comes in, since the Best Friends try another playthrough and do things differently. Matt has mostly checked out but that's okay because it leads us to Woolie and Pat trying to murder each other with Markus and, um, fuckin, what's his face, I forgot. Honestly, if Cage dropped the racism allegories and had it just be a story about a robot cop and his human partner, this game would have been pretty good. But we didn't get that! Too bad!

Other Games

SH: Downpour (Matt and Pat): This is where the legendary axe-throwing joke comes from, so please see this. I honestly forgot where this game fits into the canon or what its about except...prison. And the enemies aren't very good! Yeah!

SH: Homecoming (Matt and Pat): Homecoming is also Very Bad, but there's enough happening that the boys can keep us entertained regardless. I kinda forgot how this goes too except for some spoilers and also the cult is back and explained further? Honestly sometimes I just put on the Silent Hill lps for background noise, idk.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions (Woolie and Matt): It's good!! Really! It's long but please! Please watch or I'll be sad.

Eternal Darkness (Matt and Pat): This was one of the first horror games I've ever played. It's Lovecraft minus Lovecraft, essentially, with battles across time against ancient, eldritch deities and it's sick as hell. You play as Alex Roivas and a whole host of other characters across time using the Tome of Eternal Darkness. I dunno, it's good to see the boys play through a game so close to my heart, even if it's a little janky. Plus, you can make really cool spells!

Bug Island (Matt and Pat): This was on the Shitstorm and is honestly a game that is so their brand it induces a kind of awe in me. It's directly up their alley and it's basically a bunch of dumb teens are stuck on an island filled with mutant bugs. It's great! Give it a watch, why don't you.

The Yakuza series (Matt and Pat): Nothing is better than watching them react to any number of dumb, goofy bullshit that happens in this series, along with the serious dramatic bullshit. Best Friends and Yakuza just go together like peanut butter and jelly. Match made in heaven, babey.

Deadly Premonition (Matt and Pat): I personally lean more toward sgf's way more thorough playthrough, but this one is still tons of fun just because of the goofy SWERY bullshit that happens. Matt liked it so much, he named his cat after a main character.

Until Dawn (Matt and Pat): This game feels like it should be really dumb and bad but it isn't, and what's even better is that the boys manage to stumble their way into saving everyone. Is that a spoiler? Who cares! This game also has a system where you can see how your choices effect the game and, more important, it did it before Detroit.

Metal Wolf Chaos (Matt and Pat): THE PRESIDENT HAS TO TAKE BACK HIS COUNTRY BY FIGHTING IN A GIANT ROBOT. WHAT MORE DO YOU NEED??

Metal Gear Rising: Revengance (Matt and Pat): This is just fun to watch no matter who plays it but also please watch, if you haven't. Pls.

Basically Pat and Woolie were super good friends for a long time. Matt tried to get Woolie in on a Kirby video and Woolie wasn't able to but "Hey I know a guy" and roped Pat into it instead and that's where that started.

I mean probably well known but Woolie really was the core of the group even from day one.

Woolie has already been the backbone of the Best Friends. He's always felt like the guy doing the majority of the work to me, next to Matt, and probably even more so since Liam left and Matt lost interest.

I can't imagine the channel having lasted this long if Woolie wasn't a member of the group.

He did all the insane package pick-ups for the mailbags too, and I’m pretty sure he was in charge of the social media for a while.

Now that he points it out, the level where Kirby has to ditch its youtube career to reach the next level and he turned to the camera to say "life changing is always scary, but you made so much progress and learned a lot in this stage, Woolie Darlington Madden. Poyo." felt like it was trying to say something.
