* In February 2024, Max [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W_e0DWdhBGc teamed up]] with a special guest for Duos on ''NARAKA: BLADEPOINT''- none other than the voice of [[Franchise/StreetFighter Luke]] and [[VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake Sonon]] himself, Creator/AleksLe!

* During EVO 2023, he's streaming as usual, when, as they announce one more thing about ''VideoGame/KillerInstinct2013'', and Max abruptly gets up. Moments later, Max appears... '''''at EVO 2023 itself''''', doing a interview with the developers of Killer Instinct about the anniversary update.

* In April of 2022, an unexpected but welcome crossover happened: Max X Creator/TeamFourStar! Max provided a [[TheCameo cameo]] appearance as the voice of Terrence T. D'Arby[=/=]D'Arby Younger in ''[[Manga/JoJosBizarreAdventure Stardust Crusaders Part 2 in 6 Minutes]]''.

* [[https://youtu.be/1ppIw2-AHu0 BOSS RAGE]]: [[VideoGame/KillerInstinct Shadow Jago]]. After failing to reach [[BonusBoss Shadow Jago]], Max is sent instructions on the requirements[[note]]Must unlock everyone's ending; must be on Medium or higher difficulty; can't lose any fights (you have to return to the main menu if you do); 2 Supreme Victories (can't lose a health bar); 1 [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown Ultra combo]] before your character's Rival; must defeat the Rival with an Ultra combo[[/note]] he needs to fulfill to fight him ''by a developer at Double Helix'', and becomes the first person to beat him in arcade mode live on stream, all while playing on [[HarderThanHard "Kyle" difficulty]], which has learning CPU opponents.

--> '''Max:''' LET'S FUCKING GO! THE HARDEST GODDAMN READ!! Sing her a song, Ukyo! Sing that song! [...] Killed in two moves!? TWO MOVES!? ''Two deadly strikes!?'' [...] He's not gonna be happy. He's ''really'' not gonna be happy about that.

-->'''Max''': Right now, pretty much, the easiest thing I could do is [[KnowWhenToFoldEm quit]]. [[HeroicWillpower But we're not going anywhere]]! You don't just give up halfway through; that's not the point! [[ChallengeSeeker The point is the challenge; the path...the road to victory]]. If you don't have that, then it doesn't mean anything! And if you don't [[ObiWanMoment lose something along the way]], then you don't deserve it! We've lost many, but now we have to keep what's important in mind. [[AWorldHalfFull We need hope. We need to believe...and believe that THERE IS SOMETHING BETTER OUT THERE]]! BECAUSE I'LL BE DAMNED IF MONSTERS LIKE THIS CAN ROAM FREE! AND IN THE END, I HAVE THE ONE THING THAT'S NEEDED TO WIN THIS FIGHT--THE ONE THING HE'LL NEVER HAVE! [[VideoGame/SuperSmashBros I FIGHT FOR MY GOD DAMN FRIENDS]]! '''''LET'S GO!!!''''' ''(Asura grabs Oni [[FacePalmOfDoom by his face]])'' I AM SICK OF YOUR [[SNKBoss BULLSHIT]]! ''(Oni is flung away, Asura [[SuperSpeed runs past him and tees up]])'' WE'RE GOING IN NOW! AND THERE'S NO! TURNING! BACK! ''(Asura [[MegatonPunch punches Oni]] [[PunchedAcrossTheRoom into a far-off crater wall]])''

* Max being the first person to beat Shadow Jago in the KillerInstinct arcade mode live on the stream.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ppIw2-AHu0 He's now got a video on the matter on his Youtube account.]] And what does he set the moment where he clinches victory to? ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance "RULES OF NATURE!!!"]]''
* [[https://youtu.be/1ZNob-PxEsM His BOSS RAGE video]] on [[VideoGame/CapcomVSSNK2MarkOfTheMillennium God Rugal & Shin Akuma]] is also pretty great due to being structured like a dramatic news report and Max choosing the most hilariously fitting song to finally defeat God Rugal with.
** When he gets an opportunity to finally win against God Rugal (by leaping clear over Rugal's Kaiser Wave), [[spoiler:it quick zooms on Rock Howard's head, and intercuts the opening cutscene from ''[[VideoGame/FatalFury Garou: Mark of the Wolves]]'' just before Rock hits his Shine Knuckle SDM and wins the fight]].
** The linked version leads to a third-party upload of the original video, taken down due to copyrighted music, specifically Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out For A Hero". Max has recently [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8-FWlkRMjs uploaded an edited version]] which replaces the song with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GLcoNJOjuic a metal cover]] created specifically for this video by [=LittleV=].
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frJGCpKDXMc BOSS RAGE]]: [[VideoGame/StreetFighter4 Oni]]. He manages to turn a (relative) handful of playthroughs into Ryu's [[TheHerosJourney hero's journey]] to defeat "the demon that haunts him from night to night." [[spoiler:Especially since he had to do it ''twice'' because he missed [[ThatOneAchievement the requirements]][[note]]Can't lose any rounds; 2 [[FlawlessVictory Perfects]], 10 First Attacks, Five [[FinishingMove Super and/or Ultra finishers]]...and you have to defeat [[FinalBoss Seth]] with a Super or Ultra Combo[[/note]] and got Evil Ryu instead]].

'''Max''': THIS IS WHAT WE TRAINED FOR!\\

'''Max''': [[PreAssKickingOneLiner I'M NOT AFRAID OF YOU]]!!!
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3cAwjjnWiQ Boss Rage: BIOFREAKS]], It can only be described as pure evil and on level beyond any boss rage before it. A 7 hour grind, where at the final hour people were practically begging for Max and co to stop for the sake of their souls!
* Boss Rage: VideoGame/AsurasWrath: While theres not as much badass fighting game skill in it Max makes up for it by providing awesome narration to the cutscenes, plus a motivational speech preceding an awesome motivational song ("Dare" from [[WesternAnimation/TheTransformersTheMovie the Transformers animated film]]) to accompany the beating.

** Although the video has been removed from Maxs' channel due to [[ScrewedByTheNetwork copyright issues]], the episode has been preserved by someone else [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBb_wCVc1VA here]].
* [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IiUrZlnVPec Boss Rage: Mortal Kombat 9 Tower Challenge #300]]. Max and co. fight on for ''EIGHT'' hours, and during this time you can really see the [[SanitySlippage salt]] [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments flowing from their bloodstreams]]. After ''191'' attempts, with no retries (as retrying lowers the difficulty), they finally took down Shao Khan. Just some context: Max, Steve, and Kenny had to content with Goro, Kintaro, Mileena, and Shao Khan in one go without losing once. Also, this was a blind challenge, so any and all strategies were formulated on the fly.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7nFKmF9Lf8 Boss Rage: Winnie the Pooh's Home Run Derby - Owl]]. After numerous failed attempts to clear the [[NintendoHard astonishingly difficult Owl level]] (which includes Steve accidentally turning off the game [[EpicFail not once, but twice]]), it's Simmons who finally manages to get 19 home runs, causing Max, Steve, and Kenny to erupt into cheers.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYyppLOr_cQ BAD BOSS RAGE]] has Max go on a quest to defeat Sagat, and when he finally gets to Sagat, he battles Sagat (with clips from the Ryu and Sagat fight from ''Street Fighter II: The Movie'') and succeeds in beating Sagat by landing a Hadoken on Sagat just like Ryu had done in the Street Fighter II animated movie.
** Just a little bit earlier...[[https://youtu.be/GYyppLOr_cQ?t=8m36s Ryu gives Sagat the scar]]

** Which has a great finale in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0Fl_V8dH1A Boss Rage]] of ''VideoGame/SNKVsCapcomSVCChaos'', where Max accidentally set the difficulty to maximum and had to deal with [[SNKBoss Shin Akuma]]. Even better, after having to deal with Shin Akuma's ability to override Max's invincibility frames and special moves with his own special moves, Max defeats him by using a [[SignatureMove Raging Demon]] [[BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame to phase through Shin Akuma's Messatsu Gohado and hit him when he's defenseless]].
* He wants to get back into ''Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3'', but he's quite a bit rusty. So he released [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gukx6WtH2IY a video]] of him playing with '''''Justin Wong''''' volunteering to be his sparring partner.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3cAwjjnWiQ BOSS RAGE:]] ''VideoGame/BioFreaks''. Max starts off by talking about [[WebVideo/TwoBestFriendsPlay his friends]] who succumbed to the game and became Scrublords, and how he's doing this to save them. After being called out to play this game on the hardest difficulty (FREAK), Max spends '''''hours''''' trying and failing, especially at the FinalBoss. Even after [[FullyEmbracedFiend briefly giving into the corruption and becoming a Scrublord himself]], his dog Benny [[IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight talks him down from it]], and he eventually goes on to finally beat the game--perhaps the first known person to actually do so on FREAK difficulty.
** Even after roughly a hundred defeats at the FinalBoss [[SNKBoss Mutilator]] without any progress, the guys who originally issued the challenge [[GracefulLoser conceded defeat to them]].

* His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPfoF1l2IoU BOSS RAGE on Corrupted Shinnok]] has Max reaching Shinnok and then his corrupted form, which is so hard he ends up rage quitting. Then, [[spoiler:Predator (played by Kris Blount)]] suddenly shows up and, using an arcade controller which causes [[spoiler:him]] to perform combos, succeeds in defeating Corrupted Shinnok, and then disappears just as Max arrives to witness Shinnok's defeat scene.

--> '''Max:''' Killed in two moves!? TWO MOVES!? ''Two deadly strikes!?'' [...] He's not gonna be happy. He's ''really'' not gonna be happy about that.

* One Febuary 15th 2020, he had an announcement: Jay Jay and he weren't going to be at EVO that year.... because they were having a baby! Max's gonna be a daddy!

* His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fPfoF1l2IoU BOSS RAGE on Corrupted Shinnok]] has Max reaching Shinnok and then his corrupted form, which is so hard he ends up rage quitting. Then, [[spoiler:Predator (played by Kris Blount)]] suddenly shows up and, using an arcade controller which causes [[spoiler:him]] to perform combos, succeeds in defeating Corrupted Shinnok, and then disappears just as Max arrives to witness Shinnok's defeat scene.
