* VideoGameDemake: Their realization about ''Crash Dummy''. It's a 2D port of the 3D game ''CID The Dummy'' to iOS that was released on Nintendo Switch.

* "Let's look at the Positives/Negatives".
* Also, "Hot Take!"
* "IT'S. JUST. BAD!"

* TitleDrop: "Let's look at the Positives/Negatives". Also, "Hot Take!"

* PixelHunt: ''Phix: The Adventure'' puts a literal spin on pixel-hunting: you have to find ''incredibly'' tiny, bouncing white specks in each level to [[OneHundredPercentCompletion tick that percentage counter to 100]]. Shane and Adam realize that something's up when they clear the first world and see that the completion percentage is still ridiculously low; once they figured out that those bouncing pixels weren't a display error but a collectible, they reviewed the footage for the first world and discovered that they'd walked right past its white specks ''eleven times'', completely unaware.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation[[invoked]]: The licensed games of "Just Bad Games" often reinterpret their protagonists to be different then their real counterpart.

* PunctuatedForEmphasis: Almost every episode of Just Bad Games ends with Shane or Adam saying "It's... just... bad!"

* AccentuateTheNegative: "Negatives" videos try to find four bad things about games or gaming products that are generally accepted as great. The inverse is true for "Positives", where Shane tries to find four good things about some of the most notorious games - though by the end, he's again accentuating how bad those games are, and why the positives don't outweigh the negatives (and vice versa for the negative points on those good games).

* AllThereInTheManual: Discussed with "Just Bad Games" ''Batman: Dark Tomorrow'' and ''Superman: The Man of Steel'' where knowledge of particular comic events or storylines is needed to understand the games.

* FailedAttemptAtDrama: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] by Adam and Shane where after Dave smoothly picks up his gun in ''The Quiet Man'', the footage cuts back to when he was getting endlessly punched in the groin from the previous playthrough.

* FridgeBrilliance: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] by Shane in his "Positives" video on ''VideoGame/Superman64''. [[spoiler:After struggling to come up with a final positive for the game, he brainstorms the lore behind the game, and concludes that the reason why it's is so bad is because it takes place in Lex Luthor's virtual world, whom would have made it deliberately cumbersome to navigate in order to torture Superman.]]

* HongKongDub: [[InvertedTrope Inverted.]] In ''Charlie's Angels'' Adam and Shane notice that the voice acting isn't properly synced with the voices from the actresses that appear in the film. When they switch to the French audio, the synching fits better. Neko, the developer, is a French company.

* LeaningOnTheFourthWall: In "Just Bad Games" ''Hercules: the Legendary Journeys'', Adam and Shane note that the dialogue of an NPC in San Tomanicus sounds like something the developers snuck in to vent their frustrations at the game. ("...ran out of time", "released before he should have.", "The process was incredibly rushed.")
** Occurs again in in the ''Balan Wonderworld'' review when Shane and Adam point out that the protagonists are nothing more than a simple PaletteSwap of the same two models.

* MoonLogicPuzzle: Said ''verbatim'' when describing the ridiculous puzzles in Tiny Toon Adventures: Plucky's Big Adventure.

** When playing ''Indiana Jones and the Staff of Kings'', after a botched quick time event that cuts immediately to a loading screen, they have to clarify that they weren't doing a [[ManipulativeEditing Manipulative Jump Cut]] to make the game seems worse than it already is.[[note]]During this moment, Shane and Adam point out that the game doesn't have any death scenes when you failed, meaning there is no way to understand why and/or how you failed in certain segment.[[/note]]

** [[InvertedTrope Inverted]] In ''Aquaman: Battle for Atlantis'', they say that everyone knows the basic stories of ComicBook/{{Batman}} and ComicBook/{{Superman}} but the game assumes that people know the gist of ComicBook/{{Aquaman}} as well.

* ReadingTheStageDirectionsOutLoud: There is one line of "dialogue" in ''Morphman'' that just says "Acts scared," but it looks no different from any other line of dialogue in the game, so the two decide to voice it anyway like the character is actually saying it.

** Throughout the ''Morphman'' review, penises are only ever called [[UnusualEuphemism "canards"]] (after the rather unfortuately-placed stabilizer fin of the same name on a jet).

* SanitySlippage: Adam does this a lot in his "Worst Ever" series of videos.

** There's a moments of this in "Just Bad Games" ''Hercules: the Legendary Journeys'' due to having to replay sections of the game over and over again because the game doesn't auto save and a platforming section where attempts using the standard N64 controller somehow kept failing only for a third-party controller accomplish it ''on the first try''.

* {{Seppuku}}: [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] in ''Phix: The Adventure''. After defeating [[GratuitousSpanish Señor]] [[{{Samurai}} Shogun]], the FinalBoss, he offers to apologize and raises his blade up as if he was going to kill himself. Shane and Adam [[RapidFireNo panic]] for a moment but are relived when said boss doesn't kill himself over the issue.

* TheStinger: Some "Just Bad Games" will have a blooper or humorous clip after the outro.

** Also, the game ''CID the Dummy'' and it's follow up/remake (?) ''Crash Dummy'' in comparison to ''VideoGame/MegaMan''.

* SoundEffectBleep: In ''Rogue Warrior'', Dick Marcinco's first gameplay dialogue has him saying "It's a total goat fuck". Due to the preceding animal name, the curse word and all other swears are replaced with goat bleatings aside from an instance of "bullshit" which uses a cow moo instead. This eventually becomes a mainstay whenever a character, or the duo, curse in subsequent reviews.

* TakeAThirdOption: In the ''Fast & Furious Crossroads'' video, they say that driving games often fall into either Arcade Style like Mario Kart or Simulation like Forza. The F&F game... does neither.

* ViolationOfCommonSense: A couple stages in ''Crash Dummy'' require you to do some rather nonsensical things in order to progress; During a LethalLavaLand stage, you have to ''jump directly into lava at a dead end'' in order to finish, and the final stage requires you to jump over a gateway that sends you down a dead end, the former of which really riles up the two.

* VoodooShark: ''The Quiet Man'' has its plot holes built into the story due to its cutscenes being completely silent. When they go through the NewGamePlus that allows for the dialogue to be turned on, they find that its attempts to clarify things actually make things more confusing. Near the end of the video, Adam comes up with a solution for at least some of them: make Lala Robert's daughter and Dane's sister, explaining both her [[InexplicablyIdenticalIndividuals inexplicable resemblance to Lorraine]] and why "her father and brother" go to extreme lengths to protect her.

* GretzkyHasTheBall: Front and center in their review of ''Jerry Rice & Nitus' Dog Football''.

* IceCreamKoan: "Be Unique Yourself, Enjoy Every Moment", the tagline of a DVD[=/=]EVD player similar to what Music/SouljaBoy tried to sell as the [=SouljaGame=] Portable Screen.

* DubNameChange: The boys go along with ''Gundam 0079: The War for Earth'' calling Bright Noa the more natural-to-English-speakers "Noah Bright", though they point out the Romanization of "Zaku" as "Zak" despite the in-game database using the former, and get lots of mileage out of the strange pronunciation of the "Duchy" of Zeon as "J'eanne" or "J'ohn" (...as in toilet).

** The third episode of "Just Bad Games" ''Pu Li Ru La'' isn't really a bad game ''per say,'' the worst thing about it is it's overly cluttered scenes and overall game's vibes, which is what Shane and Adam discuss. The comments point this out and since then less emphasis has been put on games with odd visuals.

* IceCreamKoan: "Be unique yourself, enjoy every moment", the tagline of the DVD[=/=]EVD player Music/SouljaBoy tried to sell as the [=SouljaGame=] Portable Screen.

Rerez joined [[Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses Channel Awesome]] in 2014, but parted ways with that site in September 2016 due to the controversy surrounding it at the time.

!! Rerez contains examples of:

* HereWeGoAgain: In the stinger of the DDI Shovelware Special, one of the Money Ghosts asks whatever happened to Data Design Interactive. An announcer explains that the company went under in 2012, but their CEO formed a new company, Carnival Games, to port DDI’s back catalog onto the Nintendo Switch. Cue the DDI Money Ghost pulling a [[Film/TheMeaningOfLife Mr. Creosote.]]

* LargeHam: Both Shane and Adam tend to have somewhat intense reactions when finding out or explaining flaws in the games they cover.

** With ''Phix: the Adventure'' they hunted down pixel sized collectables which unlocked HarderThanHard bonus levels which they eventually completed after ''317'' deaths.

* DealWithTheDevil: ''VideoGame/FlatOut3ChaosAndDestruction'' was funded by the Devil... with the $10 he had in his pocket and the condition that the developers put in a level where the player eternally falls down a flight of stairs. [[spoiler: He's genuinely impressed that they made the Shovelware title to end all Shovelware titles with it by porting a janky Wii title to PC, saying they "scammed not only ''me,'' but every gamer in the whole world."]]

** After the tutorial of ''VideoGame/HuntDownTheFreeman'' saw the player character being called "Dirtbag," the remainder of the review finds ways to slip it in even after his name is revealed to be Mitchell.
