Season 1

Episode 1 – "The Life of a Pro Gamer"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 1.png
The life of a pro gamer.

The first episode of Pure Pwnage, introducing Jeremy and Kyle. Jeremy explains why he is making this show, and how he lives. By making this show, he believes that he can help any given person be more like him, and less of a "noob". After this introduction, Jeremy visits an Internet forum and replies to posts he sees as unreasonable, or foolish. After going out for a meal, he comments on a "Free Tibet" protest, using RTS terminology. Finally, Jeremy resumes playing video games, and introduces his pelvic thrust victory posture.

Episode 2 – "Girls"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 2.png
Jeremy facing rejection.

This episode is interspersed with interviews of females displaying their knowledge and opinions of games and gaming terminology. After learning that Kyle had a girlfriend, Jeremy is challenged to prove that he can also attract women. He attempts to attract them with various techniques, which usually have something to do with gaming skills and strategies. After a misunderstanding with a homosexual guy, he makes one last try and leaves. Back home, he claims to have met a girl who actually kissed him. The viewers find out later (in episode 6) that he did actually kiss a girl, and that girl is Anastasia a.k.a. Tagi.

(Teh_Masterer provides the voiceover for the interviewer in this episode.)

Episode 3 – "FPS Doug"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 3.png
"BOOM, headshot!"

Jeremy begins by visiting two friends that are from "Europia or whatever" who translate messages for all the "Germanic" and "Hollandaise" fans of the show. Jeremy complains about EA, the company that develops and produces his favorite game, Command & Conquer: Generals – Zero Hour. Jeremy expresses his disappointment that EA discontinued support for Zero Hour. Afterwards, Jeremy comes across his old friend Doug (a.k.a. "FPS Doug") in a parking lot, who is fending off imaginary adversaries. Jeremy explains the story of their childhood friendship, and their subsequent falling out. As a "behind the scenes" featurette, Dave (Dawei) is shown for the first time, as the crewmember who held a lamp in Jeremy’s room in Episode 2.

Episode 4 – "Pwn or Be Pwned"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 4.png
Teh Masterer beating four games at once.

The episode starts off with a spoof of the machinima Red vs. Blue using Command & Conquer: Generals – Zero Hour. After this, Jeremy loses to a noob in Zero Hour and must then visit the mysterious master gamer known as Teh_Masterer. Teh_Masterer provides Jeremy the next level training, in which the student learns a valuable lesson: "If one wants to truly pwn, one must pwn in all games". A parody of Kill Bill ensues and the episode reaches its climax with an epic micro battle. This is a turning point in Jeremy’s pro gamer life, and his T-shirt message is mysteriously upgraded from "Übergamer" to "i pwn n00bs". At the very end, Jeremy is seen walking into EB to purchase Half-Life 2

Episode 5 – "M8s"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 5.png
Jeremy filming himself after upsetting Kyle.

Jeremy "graciously" lets Kyle show a short film he made in film school, titled "Strong Man, Angry Man". After viewing the short film, Jeremy laughs and sarcastically mentions to Kyle that the film was "pretty good". Next, Jeremy insults Kyle’s camera skills, and claims that Kyle’s films will never pwn. They end up having an argument, causing Kyle to depart with his camera. He decides to start filming Doug instead, but Doug loses to a noob, due to lag, and develops a tantrum. Escaping Doug’s somewhat psychotic behaviour, Kyle walks away to consider his dispute with Jeremy. Kyle realizes that their friendship is more important than creative differences, and they remain friends, or "mates" as the title implies.

Episode 6 – "Imapwnu of Azeroth"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 6.png
Anastasia and Jeremy playing World of Warcraft.

Jeremy's computer has been confiscated by his mother, so he has intentions to spend the night playing CS:S at Dave’s place. However, Kyle wants him to meet up with a girl named Anastasia before going to Dave’s. Once he meets her, he realizes that she is the girl who kissed him in Episode 2, only nobody believed him at the time. After their second encounter, Jeremy has a strong desire to see Anastasia again. Despite his strong disliking of Warcraft and MMORPGs, he decides to buy World of Warcraft in order to meet up with her in the game world. Jeremy uses Dave’s computer to play, and soon falls in love with both Anastasia and WoW.

Episode 7 – "MMO Grrl"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 7.png
Jeremy being questioned by a psychiatrist.

Jeremy has been admitted to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in a comatose state, believing himself to still be in the game (WoW). He has flashbacks of his experience playing WoW with Anastasia. Jeremy has a gaming-related epiphany and awakes from the coma. At the end, the Pure Pwnage friends innocently hold a barbecue, and all seems well. However, a mysterious man, who has been secretly following Jeremy throughout the series, sends a troubling e-mail, ordering an unnamed receiver to send "deathstriker6666" after Jeremy.

Episode 8 – "Lanageddon"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 8.png
Doug practicing RTS theory.

Jeremy and Doug have started to play video games together again, just like they did before their feud. Jeremy receives an ominous phone call, foreshadowing events to come. Faced with the approach of LANageddon, Jeremy and Doug teach each other about their respective mastered game genres: Jeremy instructs Doug about RTS games while Doug returns the favour by informing Jeremy about FPS games. Eventually, they arrive at LANageddon where they sign up for the CS:S tournament. The two easily win each game, and are destined to meet each other at the finals. However, they encounter a confident, loudmouthed adversary known as "deathstriker6666", whom they discover very quickly to be no noob.

  • The songs "I’m a Gamer" and "Building a Computer (for teh_pwnerer)" are featured in this episode.
  • Release date: September 19 2005
  • Running time: 22:33

Episode 9 – "The Story of Dave"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 9.png
Dave pwning his noob friends.

The beginning of the episode is a Call of Duty 2 skit, featuring FPS Doug and Jeremy playing as soldiers. They make a reference to Pulp Fiction; Doug says "[m]an, I hope you don't have a watch in your ass". Also, the skit bears a resemblance to the ending of Red vs Blue Episode 8. After the skit, Kyle decides to do an episode solely centering around Dave, because of his online popularity. The next scene involves FPS Doug receiving a new weapon from a friend of Teh_Masterer, and it parodies several scenes from the film Taxi Driver. Back to Jeremy and Dave, they encounter Anastasia, who is on a date with a guy who is a jock, which aggravates Jeremy. After a heated exchange, Jeremy storms off, clearly very angry.

After a while, the trio are confronted by a crowd of unknown micro warriors, who attack them. During the middle of the battle, the action cuts off to an important flashback of Dave’s past in China, revealing his gaming history. Suddenly he breaks, and comes to the rescue, helping to drive away the attackers. Jeremy and Kyle immediately consult Teh_Masterer, who orders Jeremy to find more pro-gamers. Upon arriving home, Jeremy finds a sad note left by Dawei on the table, indicating his apologies and exit from the show.

Episode 10 – "Teh Best Day Ever"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 10.png
Jeremy answering some mail.

Jeremy begins the show with a homage to Strong Bad E-Mails from the Homestar Runner Internet series. Jeremy and Kyle have moved out of their mother's house, and are living in their own Spartan apartment. Jeremy has been unable to play video games, due to the lack of a powerful PC or a television for console gaming. Instead, Jeremy focuses on improving his RL skills, such as cooking and holding a job, though he fails at each endeavour. Doug comes over as an attempt to cheer Jeremy up, but their fun is short-lived as Anastasia arrives and gets into an argument with Jeremy. Jeremy becomes depressed and joins MySpace and claims he doesn't want to work on the show anymore. But when a touching e-mail reminds him of the many lives that find inspiration in Pure Pwnage, he realizes the futility of his self-defeating attitude. He eventually steals his powerful PC from his mother and makes up with Anastasia with a kiss.

In this episode, the opening song lyrics, instead of "I am the pwnage, bitches", were "I have the power, bitches" ― a reference to He-Man.

Episode 11 – "i <3 u in rl"

File:Pure Pwnage Episode 11.png
Jeremy Pwns in Amsterdam.

After reconciling, Jeremy and Anastasia spend most of their time together playing separate games in Jeremy's apartment. Later, en route to meeting Doug, Jeremy must flee from a group of enthusiastic Pure Pwnage fans. Doug reveals that he is carrying his Sega Master Light Phaser, and displays that it is functional in RL. Suddenly, teh_masterer calls Jeremy from a nearby pay phone, telling him to go to the Netherlands. Immediately, the scene switches to a council of mysterious people who discuss teh_masterer's training scheme. Jeremy and Kyle visit the Netherlands using the money from the Ebay auction of Jeremy's hair, where Jeremy engages in more micro training. This dangerous trip infuriates Jeremy, but pleases teh_masterer. An unrelated footage follows the episode where Jeremy makes fun of sheep by imitating "lol" (pronounced "lawl") like a sheep at forum user Skrie's farm.

  • Release date: June 18 2006 (premiere screenings), June 21 2006 (official Internet release)

Episode 12 – "Game Over"

Things are going well in the lives of Jeremy and Kyle. The two are even invited by local TV station executives to discuss the possibility of bringing the Pure Pwnage show to television. Jeremy, much to Kyle’s dismay, quickly ruins the proposition by taunting the TV executives and getting dismissed.

The two then go to visit Anastasia. Along the way, a little dog begins to follow them. Anastasia greets the two at her door, and, seeing Jeremy in his suit from his earlier meeting with the TV executives, assumes that he remembered that today is their anniversary. Anastasia produces a gift for Jeremy, a Nintendo DS Lite, and Jeremy, in panic, offers her the dog that followed him and Kyle, naming him “Dick” in the process.

Jeremy and Anastasia go into town for a date, with Kyle tagging along for camera duty. They drink heavily, downing multiple Jägermeister shots, at the restaurant where Jeremy and Anastasia first formally met. On their way home, they meet Doug, who needs a place to stay for the night; Jeremy reluctantly allows him to stay in his apartment. After a few days, Jeremy and Anastasia grow weary of Doug’s presence. Jeremy finally informs Doug that he and Anastasia would like some time alone. Doug walks away offended and smashes a large CRT television he had been carrying on his shoulder.

In the next segment, Jeremy offers a few parting words to his viewers while sitting with Anastasia, thanking his audience for watching the show. After the screen fades to black, Jeremy dreams that he is in the world of Azeroth with Anastasia, where she is ambushed by two Horde characters. Waking up, Jeremy finds a message on Anastasia’s pillow that states that she had been kidnapped.

Jeremy goes to rescue Anastasia from the mysterious building where she is held captive by the Big Bad. After defeating the Spy, deathstriker6666, and the Power Glove Man with superior micro skills, Jeremy faces the Big Bad and delivers a micro onslaught. Jeremy’s attack is useless against the powerful Big Bad, who absorbs Jeremy's attack with his hand and mockingly proceeds to eat a grape. Jeremy, however, is confident that help is on its way in the form of Teh_Masterer and his gamer army. Just then, Doug arrives on the scene. Jeremy does a celebratory dance, boasting how The Big Bad will now get pwned. But the traitorous Doug, who had joined forces with the Big Bad, points his Sega Master Light Phaser at Jeremy’s head. The Big Bad allows Anastasia to escape with Kyle. As the two reach safety and look back, a micro battle ensues. Kyle faces Anastasia and lowers his camera, revealing his face for the first time in the series.

On April 29, 2007, Kyle posted an article on the front page indicating that there was extra content added to the beginning of Episode 12. This extra content appears after the Tetris fight. The new extended intro showed an extra James Bond style opening.

  • Release date: October 28, 2006 (premier screenings), November 6, 2006 (official Internet release).
  • Running time: 46:08.
  • This is the final episode of season 1 of Pure Pwnage.

Season 2

Episode 13 – "Old Habits"

This episode is shot in reverse order. It begins with Jeremy's younger self playing with a NES Controller and meeting Doug (who is playing with a NES Zapper). The scene is set previous to the pilot episode with Jeremy wearing his old ubergamer shirt. Kyle needs some footage for his University course and makes a deal with Jeremy to be filmed for one day, saying at the end "Nothing bad will come of it". A montage, reminiscent of the Lost intro, showing the season's previous greatest moments (Anastasia and Jeremy first meeting, the battles, the departure of Dave, etc.) ends with Jeremy awake in his bed the same way he did in episode one. In this scene, he talks about waking up after his "near-pwned experience"—a reference to the cliffhanger ending the previous episode (which is not touched upon until the final two minutes).

Due to his gaming skill, Jeremy quickly finds himself in the possession of an Xbox 360 and a Wii; however he seems to lose interest in this after receiving a package from EA with the latest installment of the Command & Conquer series for PC, Tiberium Wars (C&C3).

The episode ends with Jeremy finally playing C&C3 and doing the new pwnage salute with his wide flat screen monitor. He gives a monologue on how he would have never survived without his friends and Dave appears behind him saying "Hey guys, stew's done, just the way you like it". The episode then continues from the end of Episode 12, with Dave appearing to save Jeremy from The Big Bad. When Dave uses his micro on Doug, his blaster pistol fires, killing or incapacitating Big Bad with a headshot. However, Jeremy was hit by a micro blast from The Big Bad and is carried out by Dave.

  • As referenced by Jeremy in this episode, the show has begun shooting in widescreen.
  • Release date: April 14, 2007 (premiere screenings); May 4 (Internet)
  • Running time: 32:06

Episode 14 – "Lifestyles"

Episode 14 features mainly Jeremy, Dave (Dawei), Anastasia, and Kyle. It begins with Jeremy getting up early to eat the breakfast that Dave has made. Shortly after, Jeremy initiates Dave's "training" by playing Dead or Alive 4 (DOA4). Kyle argues that they are not doing anything meaningful for the show, so they reluctantly go outside to play Frisbee.

Later on, as Jeremy and Kyle walk in the streets, they find themselves in a Gay Pride parade during Pride Week. That night, Anastasia, Jeremy, and Kyle go out for dinner and are met by Dan from the TV studio (Episode 12) and his girlfriend, Jacky. Jacky and Anastasia have a heated argument over the usefulness of games. The couple leave and Kyle remarks that "she's like [his] ex-girlfriend"; Anastasia then notices a woman who is alone and convinces Kyle to approach her, although her partner soon rejoins her. After a short conversation, Kyle returns to Anastasia and Jeremy and states he is going out with the two and that he needs to take the camera.

The next day, Jeremy, Dave, and Anastasia play Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, DOA4, and The Burning Crusade respectively at the "LANapalooza" gamer event in Aurora, Ontario. Upon returning home, Jeremy and Anastasia argue about how Anastasia takes WoW too seriously; in almost a role reversal, Jeremy says games are "supposed to be fun" and that Anastasia is "freaking out" too much and should log out for five minutes. Anastasia angrily storms out of the room with her account still logged in. Jeremy then goes over to her computer and contemplatively deletes Anastasia's level 70 Human Warrior (full tier 5).

There is also a small segment at the end featuring Dave. It is aptly named "Pro at Cooking with Dave", and shows Dave cooking a stew.

  • Release date: July 14, 2007 (premiere screenings); July 25 (Internet release).
  • Running time: 30:24.

Episode 15 – "T-Bag"

The episode opens with a machinima of Team Fortress 2 (TF2). After this, Jeremy, Kyle and Dave attend a Gamer Army lecture by Teh_Masterer, which Jeremy finds boring. Jeremy and Kyle then visit Anastasia. Though Jeremy deleted her character, Anastasia has assumed her account was hacked, and thus is not mad - on the contrary, the time away from WoW has changed her attitude completely.

Later, Jeremy excitedly prepares for the release of Halo 3 in his apartment, and then goes to the mall to purchase the game. He encounters Terrence "T-Bag" Brown, a professional Halo player, who invites Jeremy to his weekend launch party. The episode then segues into a music video featuring T-Bag and Jeremy before heading the launch party. There, Jeremy finds Doug, and challenges him to a Halo 3 duel. Following an altercation between the two, Jeremy leaves the party.

In a narrow hallway with numerous identical doors, the two government agents unlock a weapon—the Menacer—to give to Doug, claiming that he has the power to prevent the war Teh_Masterer is preparing the Gamer Army for. Back in the apartment, Jeremy enthusiastically plays TF2 and appears to have forgotten about Halo 3.

Episode 16 – "Duty Calls"

As a prologue, the episode begins with a homage to Back to the Future and Jeremy playing Rock Band. In order to make some money, Jeremy goes to a local computer shop and sells the parts that he has earned in tournaments—a practice that The_Masterer frowns upon. After selling the prizes, the pair go out for breakfast, where Kyle tries to lecture Jeremy on the value of money.

On the way to T-Bag's house, Jeremy encounters a man and in a dream sequence, and they battle with Guitar Hero and Rock Band controllers. At T-Bag's fitness room, the two awkwardly discuss different matters, including Doug's camaraderie. Ultimately, T-Bag advises Jeremy about his lack of sponsors, telling him that he should stick to a single game in order to earn money. Jeremy cites The_Masterer's quote, "If one wants to truly pwn, one must pwn at all games," but T-Bag ridicules it and insists that Jeremy should get sponsors.

The next scene is a machinima short of Call of Duty 4 (COD4) featuring Jeremy and Doug in a showdown. Afterwards, Jeremy returns to his apartment and has a surprise birthday party with Kyle, Tagi, Dave and T-Bag, who all give him presents. When Jeremy and Kyle are the last two left in the apartment, Jeremy gets a surprise visit from Doug. The two reaffirm their friendship and work together playing COD4 on the same team, dominating the server they play on.

  • Release date: March 1 2008 (premiere screenings); March 8 (Internet release).
  • Running time: 27:47.

Episode 17 – "Just the Guys - Part 1"

The episode starts with a short parody of Zero Punctuation called "Zero Coordination - on the n00b effect."

The real episode now starts with Doug and Dave negotiating some mysterious stuff.

The show then shifts one week back to Sunday where Jeremy and Dave are playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl where Dave and Jeremy's student Chris just sits and watch. Jeremy mentions that The Masterer has setup an 'Exchange Program' where pros come over and are assigned to uber pros so they can be better and be more pro. Chris is just ridiculed by the two and when Jeremy wins again, Dave takes out the disc and snaps it in half. Dave then suggests to go get some ice cream.

The next day, Doug and Jeremy are playing Call of Duty 4 on the PC. Jeremy suggests that they should play some Xbox 360 and Doug accepts only to play even more Call of Duty 4. Jeremy then teaches the people watching some tips like looking at Message boards and playing higher skilled players. He also adds that they should play n00bs if they sucked. Shortly after, Jeremy and Doug go out and mention about the future games coming out and about nooblets. Later, the three go to Chinatown for Dim Sum. The three later notice Dave heading their way and asked the whole group to hide. Dave then talks to Kyle and Jeremy comes out of hiding and greets Dave. Dave then invites Jeremy over for lunch by eating a barbecued squid. Jeremy refuses Daves offering by Jeremy thinking he was going to eat a barbecued metroid. Jeremy then walks with Dave with Doug trailing them stealthily. Dave splits up shortly after and Doug and Jeremy finally go for Dim Sum.

The next day, Jeremy walks up to Anastasia's house hoping to hang out and play. Anastasia mentions that she can't because she has plans tonight because its a girl's night out. Jeremy responds that he forgot because was so busy when the scene shifts to Doug and Jeremy playing more Call of Duty 4. Anastasia invites Jeremy to come in and Jeremy mentions that he forgot today was a guys night out. Jeremy then phones his best buddies and is rejected by Doug and Dave so Jeremy then phones Terence and he accepts. The scene shifts to Terence and Jeremy having a beer at a bar and Jeremy pulls out two Nintendo DS so they could play. Terence wants Jeremy to do something different for once so they go to a club. At the club Jeremy spots Anastasia dancing with a guy and Jeremy visually sees her grinding him. In response to this, Jeremy suddenly leaves along with Terence. Anastasia then gets Jeremy's attention and says that she was dancing with someone she didn't know and Jeremy then goes ballistic and calls her a slut. This infuriates Anastasia and Terence asks the two to calm down and talk about the conflict tomorrow. Anastasia then says there is nothing more to talk about and ends their relationship on the spot. As the episode ends Terence is then seen nodding his head and turns towards Jeremy and Jeremy just stands there.


Public Proposal at the Premiere

During the premiere of this episode, while at the selection of the Door Prizes, someone won two tshirts, a Season 1 DVD, a pair of The Pwnerer's boxers, and one "Ring of the Pwner-er". After being presented with the prizes, the person said to the audience that he already had a ring on him, and that he wanted it give it to someone else. He then went back to his seat, pulled out a box which contained a Sapphire Ring, got down on one knee, and then proposed to his fiancee (who was also at the premiere). She said yes, however it was too quiet for everyone to hear, so he shouted to the crowd, "She said yes!" and everyone applauded and cheered. This is the first time Pure Pwnage has had a public proposal during a premiere. The two people were identified on the forums as SithHappens (the person that won the prizes) and Kalizk, who is SithHappens' fiancee. According to SithHappens, him winning the prize was planned by himself, Geoff and Davin ahead of time.

Episode 18

Featurettes

Short featurette: "Pure Pwnage Preview"

This movie appeared prior to the release of the first episode. It features Jeremy standing alone in an open courtyard (presumably at a university campus), talking in detail about how he pwns at Zero Hour. This also gives an early look at his pelvic thrusting antics. In this movie, Jeremy seems to have less of an accent, which could indicate that he changes the tone of his voice during filming and public interviews. The movie concludes by displaying the Pure Pwnage logo while a voice over states, "If you really want to pwn noobs, watch Pure Pwnage, coming soon." This featurette can no longer be found on the Pure Pwnage website. It can be downloaded here

Easter Eggs

Easter eggs in the episodes:

  • Jeremy addresses Kyle as "Adam" occasionally during the featurette "Happy Birthday Jakob." This happens at 1:16, 1:55, and 3:22. In the last occasion, Kyle can be heard whispering "Kyle," as to correct Jeremy. Also, it appears as if Kyle refers to Jeremy as "Matt", but he immediately changes his sentence. This occurs at 2:04, and again at 2:16. It is revealed in the Episode 12 credits that neither of their names are "Adam" or "Matt." This short was later confirmed as a red herring.
  • Jeremy can execute a shoryuken, as seen in Episode 4 ("Pwn or Be Pwned").
  • During a shot of Doug playing CS:S in Episode 5 ("M8s"), at 8:51, a BOOM HEADSHOT spray can be seen on the left wall. The spray can be downloaded from the Xtra Stuff section section of the Pure Pwnage website.
  • At the start of Episode 6, a binary number is displayed on a blackboard behind Teh_Masterer’s head. When translated into decimal, it reads as the number 1337. In the next shot, it changes to "It’s too late".
  • During Episode 6, when Kyle answers the payphone, Teh_Masterer (the caller) wants to speak to Jeremy. As Kyle is handing the phone to Jeremy, one can faintly hear Teh_Masterer as he commands, "Put that n00b on the phone."
  • In Episode 6, Dave has a picture of Larry David (Seinfeld, Curb Your Enthusiasm) in his room.
  • In Episode 6, when Kyle and Anastasia are sitting together in the bar, Kyle becomes agitated when Anastasia comments to Kyle, "You're funny." This scene is a reference to Joe Pesci's role in the film Goodfellas.
  • In the beginning of Episode 6, several scenes are shown that appear to be future scenes in the series. One of them includes the LANageddon scenes, where deathstriker6666 is challenging Jeremy. There is also a scene of a young woman with short dark hair, whose name is Stacey Mayne. This woman is actually Jarett Cale's girlfriend in real life. She can also be seen in episode 8, "Lanageddon" (during deathstriker6666's killing montage). The source of this information is from Jarett Cale in his commentary during the CES 2007 Stage 6 show.[citation needed]
  • At the beginning of Episode 7, when Jeremy's teammate fails to polymorph additional enemy fast enough and gets everyone killed, Dave can be heard saying "way to go, Leeroy!", which is a reference to Leeroy Jenkins. As well, right before this Jeremy tells Joel to provide support against any flamewalkers, clearly a reference to Joel Gardiner the actor that plays fps_doug.
  • In Episode 8, When Jeremy talks about the people he asked to join the Gamer Army, he makes reference to Skrie, denwO and KashmirZ, 3 highly renowned members of the Pure Pwnage community. Skrie was shown in Episode 11 as the mysterious Redboard while denwO was one of the guards to the Big Bad's castle. It is currently unknown whether KashmirZ will also be featured in a future episode.
  • In Episode 8, when Jeremy was pwning the noobs in the contest, one can faintly hear him say "To win, I got to you know, defeat you all."
  • In Episode 8, when Doug is competing against 7 other CS:S players, one of his victims is under the alias "f4tality". This is a nod to Johnathan Wendel, a professional FPS-gamer who goes by the name "Fatal1ty". Early in his career, Wendel played Counter-Strike before switching to games such as Quake III Arena, and recently Painkiller. By the fact that in the episode Doug defeats "f4tality", it works as a display of Doug’s professional skill level, as Wendel is deemed to be one of the best players worldwide.
  • One of Teh_Masterer's students mentions in Episode 9 that there hasn't been a public micro battle "since the Miyamoto peace accord". Miyamoto refers to the creator of the Mario Bros. and many other Nintendo games and characters.
  • On several occasions throughout the show, Jeremy makes conscripts and movements towards the creation of a gamer army at the behest of Teh_Masterer. It is not until Episode 8, when Doug mentions it, that the viewer truly knows Jeremy’s intentions, which explain the odd phone calls made to Jeremy through payphones.
  • In Episode 9, at the end of the Call of Duty 2 skit 'Harris' asks Doug to do something for him and Doug says "Don't tell me you got a watch up your ass." This is a reference to Pulp Fiction, where Butch's dad had a watch up his ass in the war.
  • In Episode 10, The opening scene is a parody of Homestar Runner, but with a Pure Pwnage twist. On the lower left hand corner of the screen, it says "Compy 386", the same name for the computer Strong Bad uses to answer his e-mails from Homestar Runner.
  • In Episode 10, during the opening scene, a writer named (.50)'[DooRag]-[2PAC]wigga4life writes in challenging Jeremy to a game of Unreal Tournament 2004. He says to come to his clan server at 66.115.132.176. The IP is a direct link to 'chisel.com', a homosexual pornography link site.
  • In Episode 10 when Jeremy possesses Dave's computer, he uses a Logitech Cordless Internet Pro desktop set. After getting his own PC back, he continues to use the upgraded hardware instead of his Microsoft Natural keyboard and Logitech TrackBall mouse.
  • In Episode 10 when Jeremy and Anastasia argue, Anastasia queries one of Jeremy's statements with "o rly?", and Jeremy then returns this with "ya rly!" This is a reference to the orly owl, a popular Internet phenomenon.
  • Near the end of Episode 11, Jeremy is talking to Anastasia and a fan asks for Jeremy's autograph. Jeremy is annoyed but Anastasia tells him that he might get to enjoy being famous and shows several scenes from the Toronto screening of Episode 11.
  • In Episode 11, the man who is seen spying on Jeremy throughout the series appears again. This time, he is the man who drops his wallet at the end of the episode. This wallet reads "Bad Mother Fucker", a reference to Jules' wallet from Pulp Fiction.
  • In Episode 11, when the government agents are trying to get evidence on teh_pwnerer, one man is said to have "taught Daigo how to parry". This is a reference to a widely-known Street Fighter match.[6]
  • During the filming of Episode 11, a man was seen doing a 'crazy action' when Jeremy is walking down the street (video). This was cut out by Kyle and a still from the clip was posted on the official forums, leading into a Photoshop activity.[7] The man's face is now used as an emoticon on the Pure Pwnage forums (image). He was shortly after named Brian as suggested by a forum moderator named Weiman.
  • In Episode 12, the main antagonist references AYBABTU by saying "You have no chance to survive make your time," a line from the intro sequence of Zero Wing.

  • In Episode 12, the drinking montage with Jeremy, Anastasia, Kyle and the waitress. Kyle holds up a piece of paper in front of the camera, if the movie is paused it seems to be a portion of the script for episode 12.
  • In Episode 13, when Kyle tells Jeremy about the package from California, Jeremy starts sing the theme song to The O.C.. Kyle says he needs to watch the show in order to know what's hip then Jeremy comes back with "Yeah Kyle has nothing to do with Mischa" this tells that Kyle watches the show only for Mischa Barton and her character's death on the show.
  • In Episode 13, the conversation when Kyle brings up Command & Conquer 3 is a reference to a proverb George W. Bush says at the end of Fahrenheit 9/11. When asked why Jeremy is not interested in C&C3 anymore, he replies "You can fool me once, you know, shame on me. But, fool me twice, you know, you can't fool me again you know."

  • At a certain part of the end sequence of Episode 14, Jeremy is using his own "brand" of mousepad, which is available in the Pure Pwnage store. (When the camera zooms out at one point, the logo can clearly be seen on the corner of the mousepad.) On an unrelated note, the mouse he is using is a Razer DeathAdder (The distinct pulsing glow from the logo and the continuous glow from the mousewheel confirms this).

Continuity errors

  • In Episode 4, when Kyle walks into Jeremy’s room, Jeremy is seen holding a liquor bottle. In the next shot, the bottle is nowhere to be seen. One possible explanation is that there was a considerable lapse of time between when Kyle was zooming in on the monitor to when Jeremy is shown on the mattress without the bottle, since Kyle had to temporarily turn off the camera anyway. There must have been a discussion because Jeremy "thanks" Kyle for his "lessons" on pro gaming, and Jeremy seemed to have told Kyle of how he lost to a flame tank.
  • In Episode 5, after Doug gets killed by a noob in CS:S, the monitor is off. Furthermore, the keyboard that he subsequently smashes is not the same keyboard that he uses to play: the latter one is a standard rectangular keyboard, but the former one is a natural keyboard. (The natural keyboard is seen sitting behind Doug for the shots of him inside, attached to an older computer: It may be that this is the computer Doug takes his anger out on, not being so completely blinded with rage as to destroy a keyboard possibly worth more than he could afford to replace)
  • In Episode 5, in a good deal of the footage of Doug playing Counter-Strike: Source, it can be seen that the game is in spectator mode (given away by the letterboxing of the GUI), and is not really playing the game, but is instead watching either a live game or a prerecorded demo.
  • In Episode 5, after Kyle observes Doug unleashing violence upon his own keyboard in the garage, he runs away from Doug's house, and toward a cul-de-sac (as opposed to another street/outlet).
  • In Episode 6, before Jeremy goes out to buy World of Warcraft, the stack of installation CDs are visible on the desk (image).
  • In Episode 8, after Doug is killed in-game, deathstriker6666 starts to laugh, and a groupie starts to cheer and laugh too. In a different angle, he is serious and has his arms crossed.
  • In Episode 8, when Doug and Jeremy are playing Street Fighter III in the arcade at around 4:02 when the shot pans in for a close up of Jeremy's victory pelvic thrust and spank. The man in the background in black turns around and leans up against the machine; when the shot pans out again (Jeremy still continuing the motion) the man is already back again playing the game.
  • In Episode 9, when Bu Jing Yun and Nie Feng attack Dave’s sisters, one of the sisters can clearly be heard speaking Cantonese instead of Standard Mandarin, which was spoken by all the other characters. The scene takes place in Shaanxi, where they do not speak Cantonese (which is spoken mostly in the Guangdong province).
  • In Episode 10, roughly between 3:55 and 4:25, Jeremy is seen putting on his jeans. In the next shot, they are back in his hands.
  • In Episode 10, half-way through the episode when Doug and Kyle leave Jeremy's bedroom and man in a hat and white t-shirt is seen peeking through the door on the left.
  • In Episode 13, during the Xbox game (14 minutes in), many of the goals in the hockey match where not scored in their order. This is true (as shown in the first match), for goals were made on alternating sides through the match, this is inconsistent with NHL play. This is the same for the second game, additionally showing the score at times when it is lower than it should be.
  • In Episode 13, nearing to 31 minutes, Dave appears out of what is considered "the kitchen" preparing some stew, but in actuality it is a closet. Proof of this is in the later half of 25 minutes, when Jeremy is playing Xbox (online), we clearly see the "kitchen" door. We can assume that this is a bachelor apartment (regardless if it is or not), this door would look more suitable as a closet door, and not a kitchen door.
  • In Episode 14, when Jeremy sits down to eat breakfast, he sits at the seat with a small plate and in the next cut when he is eating the French toast the plate is now a bigger blue plate.
  • In Episode 14, when Jeremy and Dave play Dead or Alive 4, the amount of health both players have incorrectly changes after the direct feed footage switches to Kyle's view of Jeremy winning.
  • In Episode 15, when Jeremy is at T-Bag's Halo party, you can clearly see day light coming through the blinds. In the scene when Jeremy storms out after his argument with Doug, it is night time.
  • In Episode 16, during the COD4 machinima segment, Doug's avatar shoots an MP5, when he enters the building (as it goes into first person) he is holding an M4 rifle, and quickly switches back to an MP5
  • In Episode 17, where Doug suggests Bright Pearl Restaurant for Dim Sum, they started running south. In fact, the Bright Pearl Restaurant is actually to the left (The two were on the intersecton of Spadina and D'Arcy, the restaurant is on St. Andrew and Spadina, which is left).
