On a side note, I haven't finished Last of Us to avoid spoiling it for myself while watching them play it.
...Man, that really is a depressing ending. On the one hand, I agree with Pat's mentality on the matter, on the other hand, I fully stand behind Matt's point of view about the lying to her aspect of it.
Shades of gray and junk, I guess.

I enjoyed The Last of Us. The only other play-through I watched was Markipliers and he made a comment that he would play it again 'off camera' so he could really get into the world because it was impossible to do that when doing commentary.
I imagine it's twice as hard (and consequently twice as easy to miss stuff) to do that when there are two of you chatting back and forth.
Also, totally agreed with Pat's Bioshock Infinite comments.

Honestly, I'd play "J-Cup Wrestling", especially if all of them are OP like Tera Patrick.

And the mystery of "girl who laughs in the background" is solved. It's Dork Girl.

Great video, kind of lost some luster at the end in part due to the meh match they ended it with.
But man, that first one...amazing.
Also I love the fact that Pat's been pretty dominant in this video series. Makes up for how cruel they sometimes can be to him during Brawls.

I'm a fan of all of them. I don't take any of the teasing as cruelty, really. Besides, it makes it that much funner to watch him dominate, like the Anarchy Reigns one.

I take it as playful cruelty, like a "aw, stop picking on Pat" kind of thing. I know it doesn't mean anything at the end of the day. And yeah, the very, very, very few times Pat has won Brawls, it's FUN to watch him bask in the glory while Matt and Woolie eat crow, despite their attempts to undermine his win.

He did say he won two other Brawls but those, and possibly others, were very early on in the whole Brawl thing and accidentally lost due to technical problems. He didn't specify what games they were.

That was Perfect Dark, but yeah, he ruled in that one. AND, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he never even played Perfect Dark up until that point (as opposed to Anarchy Reigns, which he did) since he never had an N64. It made him winning, and Matt and Woolie acting super salty and trying to "yeah, whatever" his victory, THAT much more satisfying. As a matter of fact, I think I'm going to go watch that one again.

I think part of my problem is that every time Pat gets an actual win in Brawl, Matt immediately down plays it via editing. It'd be one thing for him to down play it there, because Woolie and him usually act salty and try to down play his accomplishments when Pat gets one over on them. But I still vividly remember his first official Brawl win immediately having it's feel good moment cut out from under it due to some snarky text Matt added afterwards. It was such a buzz kill that it still annoys me a little now when I think about it.
I think that's honestly the only downside to Matt being the sole editor of the Two Best Friends Play videos, sometimes he commands the narrative in a way that bothers me.

I believe you're referring to this one, from Anarchy Reigns..It doesn't bother me nearly as much as it used to, but yeah, it's a major buzzkill. I'm sure Pat doesn't give a shit, but still, it was unnecessary. I too wish the others were able to be editors for their videos, just so that the videos are not always bias for whatever Matt thinks.

Oh yeah, doubt Pat cares, but like you said, it was just so unnecessary.
I will say this, that is likely the one advantage Game Grumps has over TBFP overall.
Barry.
Barry being a chaotic third party, sometimes he'll listen to one Grump, other times he'll listen to the other, and sometimes he says screw it and does his own thing. So, it's never one Grump getting over on the other all the time, and in some cases, both Grumps are made to play the fool. It's really an ideal system, as Barry doesn't tend to glorify himself either because...well, he's usually a non-factor as he doesn't take part in the actual videos.

You are correct, it was the Facility Map that fooled me.
