anyone remember the man with a hat?

Years ago I subscribed to a guy doing CoX parody videos on YouTube. There was no video; it was all a talked story. Each episode followed 2 not-too-smart guys who IIRC wanted to be Skulls, maybe Hellions. In the first, or at least an early video the see a "man with a hat", and start discussing him. Following episodes contain other mentions of the man with a hat. They travel around various zones in Paragon City, and I think even a Rogue Island or two.

I'm not doing it justice, but their discussions were hilarious. One of my favorites was where they visited Brickstown and tried to convince a freakshow tank that they're freakshow as well. The tank remained .. unconvinced. It gave a whole new insight into who the freaks are.

I would have posted a link, but the guy doing it may have cancelled his YouTube account. I'm not subscribed any more. Does anyone else remember these, and perhaps have a link to where else his work may have been posted?

Farewell is like the end
But in my heart's the memory
And there you'll always be

A: You crash into another one.

Oh I remember them. Can't for the life of me think of what they're called so I could search for them.

You know this is going to drive me nuts now.

Edit: YES those are the ones I'm remembering. Thanks, nut driving now off the schedule.

Stan and Lou - OMG, I loved those.

My personal favorite is the one when they're in a warehouse guarding a crate (they don't know what's in it), discussing the "woo woo woo" noise, then one of them 'clicks' on it and it stops making noise, and all of a sudden they no longer know which crate is the one they're supposed to be guarding.

I just resubscribed to Fishmorph, aka @Hertz . Wish I knew how I had gotten unsubscribed.

Here is the "Techlab" video (not Brickstown) where they talk to the freak:

I promise it will give you a clearer insight into the freaks than you ever had before.

Dug through their videos until I found this one (okay, it was easy to find; its called "warehouse").

It was quite funny indeed, I'll have to watch more of these.

Okay, I only found out about the game itself in 2009. These were well before my time, I had no idea they existed.

Thanks for bringing this up! These are hilarious!

Well, phooey. The other day I changed the title in order to make it more obvious what this thread is about. I just noticed that what I changed was the title of the first port, not the title of the thread. Do we have a way to change thread title?

PM a mod - they can probably do it for you.
