Ikr? Great delivery by Mike. Weirdly, Garrus is the one with the best game too. That dance in the Citadel DLC. Oh boy. He even seduced me, and I'm asexual.
Anime girl kisses dead hedgehog in order to resurrected in his super form. That one Hell of boner power, meanwhile Amy is being cucked... Again. This game is as messy as the Archie Comics Sonic. LOL
For the sonic one, another issue that bothers me is how Sonic looks so cartoony while they made the princess look as realistic as possible at the time.
they tried again in secret rings with the genie girl and sonic, it still looks off. i swear there must be a woman at sega who's a furry and high up enough to be in control of the plot of the games.
Yeah Sonic really didn't fit that subplot, physically or otherwise. It's not just about him being an anthropomorph, he also feels so awkward and weird. Like he's not really a person. The writing was just not great, that's why the game is iffy
After seeing Bully on this list I am reminded of Fable 2. You could smooch your spouse anywhere out in the open, and if you had a high "good" alignment people would walk up to you and cheer at you. Technically, they were cheering for how Right And Good you were, but it sorta felt like they thought the polygonal lip-lock maneuver was impressive. Even worse than this was when they would fully just wander into your home, _as if someone granted them the powers of a protagonist,_ and cheer for you and your spouse being considerably more intimate than just kissing.
Having experienced Sonic 06 at the time i still don't know what was weirder. Sonic having a sudden relationship with this new human girl when they displayed the romantic chemistry of a wet flannel, or the fact that AMY IS STANDING RIGHT THERE AND DOES NOT REACT AT ALL?! She's been in love with Sonic for over a decade at that point and she's just "this is fine, everything here is fine!"
"Guess I just wasn't his type, because his type is freaky hairless apes a foot and a half taller than him with their mammary glands in a really weird place."
Sonic in a *Sonic short* after being revived by Princess Elise: “Ugh… I don’t know what’s creepier: the fact that she made out with an animal or a corpse.”🤣🦔💙
Knuckles lost in the background is best part of Sonic 06’ seems like his character wanted to bring it up later, but didn’t know how to approach the topic
If you ask me, the most awkward kiss was the one that was on my phone screen while I was watching this video with my headphones on while my coworker came up behind me and had no context whatsoever for why I was watching low poly high schoolers make out. 😐
The fact that Kyle and Jan retract their lips and bare their teeth before kissing in Jedi Knight: Jedi Outkast makes their kiss pretty awkward but also hilarious.
Me: a blue anthropomorphic hedgehog and a human?? Why?? Also me: *giggles at Garrus flirting with Shep every single time* Edit: Ok but have you seen Garrus doing the tango? Literal tango? 😂
I always thought it like this: Tali has always had a crush on Shepard since ME1. But if you don't act on it in ME2, best girl's just gonna move on to the only other good option for love. Cause we all know how Garrus is perfect for FemShep players. Meaning "You're too late, I tried throwing myself at you, you could've had me ages ago. I'm with your bro Garrus now Shepard. Your loss." 🤣🙃

My first thought is the ending for the N64 version of Army Men: Sarge’s Hero. After being ordered to kiss his girlfriend by his CO (also, her dad), Sarge proceeds to pick Vicki Grimm up on both sides of her head like a Mortal Kombat fatality and bring her in for a low-poly smooch.
dark souls 2 comes to mind with the desert sorceress who giggles grabs you and proceeds to kiss you draining a lot of your life until you fall to the floor its more awkward considering the slurping sounds that goes with the kiss attack
Mike's description of Garrus has me screeching internally for Jane to do this section, but I also really appreciate "does NO ONE on this ship have game" and Mike talking about Mass Effect. Garrus was my Shep's beau but I gotta say I do love the Tali-Garrus relationship, too. Man, I should replay ME. Soon, Patreon money. Then, desperately hoping for a Jane-plays-ME series.
Eh, Sonic and Elise is weird because they’re in ridiculously contrasting art styles (Sonic being a classic cartoony animal person, Elise being a realistic Final Fantasy-esque human). Conceptually, them kissing would be no less weird than Shepard in Mass Effect with all their various potential alien partners, Sonic being a sentient and sapient being. The issue of course comes from the differing art styles, since that highlights the uncanny feel of the abnormality. Look at Roger and Jessica Rabbit, they’re both extremely cartoony characters, which thanks to the existence of the live action human characters among the cast, just makes them look even less weird together despite Roger being a rabbit toon and Jessica being a human toon. Long story short, the only reason why it should be seen as weird is because the relationship itself, much like the story of the game (except Shadow’s for some reason being legit really good?), is absolutely dreadful.
in Devil May Cry 3 Dante's Awakening one of the bosses faced is Nevan the lightning demon. One of her attacks is a kiss which if successful is not only awkward but also allows her to recover some of her health
It's funny that Connor and hank probably have the most natural and interesting interactions of any David cage game. Considering I think I heard something about a lot of their scenes being improvised.
@@artbk whenever I read someone commenting about "male gaze" ..it reminds me of some unhinged people from Twitter yapping about it No offense to you though
Am I the only one who laughed & enjoyed the Tali/Garrus romance? I mean, come on, the best bud & the other best bud? Who are both awesome & genuine & good people? And who've fought alongside you & the other for 3 games of epicness? I'm totally onboard with them getting together & then being all awkward about it...
Elise's recent redesign makes her actually look like a sonic character and it's so much less weird when she - despite being human - is actually the same height and proportions as him
I have another one: The first kiss of Hawke and Fenris in Dragon Age II. Something went quite wrong with the animation there. If I remember correctly, their lips don't even touch, but it looked really awkward for sure. At least that's how it was for me. And Fenris pushs Hawke against a wall, after having been startled by them and then they make out. I really like Fenris as a character and romance option, can't say anything about the other romancable characters and if the strange kissing animation is a recurring thing in DAII.
That delivery of Get. Shepard. Laid. Is going to follow me for the rest of my life. This channel has granted me so many wonderful laughs but that just might be the biggest. Thank you for this gift
You don’t have to deal with Ashley’s creepiness if you choose Kaidan. Plus if you’re a male Shep romancing Kaidan then the whole series of games becomes tragic as Kaidan only seems to realize the depth of his feelings for Shep at the end of the freaking world.
The only problem I have with the Garrus/Tali kiss is that Garrus isn’t kissing me. Also if you romance Garrus in 3 he’s the most romantic motherfucker alive.
I have to admit i had no idea about this interaction between tali and garus. It’s really an amazing and wholesome detail they put some effort into. Love it!❤

The kiss in Sonic '06 was WAS weird but remember Twilight? The book/movie series about a teenage girl in a love triangle with a sparkly corpse and a shirtless wolf?
Don’t forget that the sparkly corpse was one hell of an emotionally manipulative creep that constantly gaslit her, or that the shirtless wolf is planning on doing the jail-bait wait for the main character’s newborn daughter (I feel genuinely disgusted writing that, wtf is wrong with the author?)
@@DrawciaGleam02 Let’s see, is the full grown werewolf man openly lusting over a goddamn baby worse than a human princess “Sleeping Beauty”-ing a dead Sonic back to life as Super Sonic? Abso-fucking-lutely!

That Sonic footage looked more like it was from one of those weird "Spider-Man and pregnant Elsa" videos rather than an actual Sonic video game -- partly due to the mismatched characters but also because of the awkward mocap animations.
17:22 *Jane:* If you'd like to watch something... different that contains almost no kissing guaranteed-- Jane, this video was sufficiently different. My Different Quota has been met for the time being.
I KNEW Farenheit was gonna be in this one. I once read the love scene between Carla and Ethan described as "A moment of tender necrophilia on a dirty mattress surrounded by hobos."
Ah, something else to haunt my dreams. Thanks Outside Xbox you've done it again. Though I'd make out to that sick guitar riff over the GoldenEye credits. Or vaguely move my arms?
The Sonic one is really something special. It's not just that he's nominally a hedgehog and she's a human. It's not just that he's Saturday morning cartoon style and she's a final fantasy character model. Those things are serious problems they don't overcome. But even if they were visually the same, there would still be the issue of how different they are tonally. Sonic's writing and performance make him a fun* cartoon character when the rest of the setting matches that tone, but in this tragic high fantasy kingdom those same traits make him seem like a child. *Fun not guaranteed
Andy’s Arthur really throws me off guard😂 facial hair similar but I use the trappers made clothes from the legendary animals because I love the rugged gunslinger in pelts and long coats😂
I’ve watched this video as many as times as I’ve completed the “Prime Directive” in Mass Effect, I reckon. If there was ever a microcosm of the infinitely human nature of this channel and its stellar humour, this is one of them. Cheeky bit of 007 in there and I’m loving it. Had me in stitches. ❤
I love the janky Dragon Age Inquisition kisses. Just because if you choose an dwarf or qunari as your player character, their romantic partners have to deal with the drastic height difference just to get a smooch. Personal favourites are Blackwall and Dorian trying to kiss their Qunari or Dwarf Inquisitor while breaking their necks.
What about the movie tie-in game for the first Spider-Man movie? Spider-Man and Mary Jane making out on a burning bridge six feet away from the corpse of the main villain.
Came here purely for the sonic 06 moment Honestly would’ve been better if the other characters were reacting like how they did in snapcube’s fandub on this
I remember being young and naive playing Destroy all Humans 2, not understanding why Natalia was making so much noise in the final mission and what “re-entry” meant, good times
In Final Fantasy 7, if you have Yuffie as your date at the Gold Saucer, she will give Cloud a kiss on the cheek in the gondola and admit she "just felt like doing that". Cloud doesn't reciprocate to the smooch and Yuffie notices and gets increasingly upset at being ignored. One snarky snark from Cloud later, you hear a loud audible slap over the romantic music suggesting Yuffie didn't appreciate not being taken seriously and gave him a big ol' slap.
Sonic & Elise feel fundamentally off as a pairing, despite none of the options in the Mass Effect series feeling like a problem at all. The Harkness Test would support all of those being perfectly fine, so it feels hypocritical to say that one interspecies relationship works and another doesn't, but despite that there's just something about the Sonic pairing that still just feels off. Maybe it's the "cartoon" factor?
Revan and Bastilla in Knights of the Old Republic. So awkward that the screen faded to black before the kissing ever started, because we couldn't stand to see how bad it was. Just ask HK-47! Play the second game and he'll tell you how terrible they are at kissing.
I was expecting Spider-Man: The movie game (2002) to show up here. The green goblin passes in front of Spidey while delivering a somber line about his son and when Peter turns to MJ to say something, she just shushes him and they kiss in front of Norman's body.
I’d like to add Most Kirby games. When your ally is hurt and kirby gets a healing item, he shares that healing item in a “kiss”. While we never see them lip lock, it is almost confirms they do it.
Mike's delivery of 'does NO ONE in this ship have game?!?' is absolutely exquisite

Weirdly, Garrus is the one with the best game too. That dance in the Citadel DLC. Oh boy.

it's not that the hands are hard to animate so much as putting the actual object in them is, and _that's_ why they hide the animations
This list made me wonder whether any of the Lego game characters ever made out. I can't imagine that going well.
I mean maybe there's a logic I'm missing but if you can't animate a kiss...don't animate a kiss...
Same with hair and especially clothing. Small wonder why changing and removing clothes is at most an off-camera moment in video gaming and animation.
Honestly the awkwardness of the sonic 06 romance comes less from their different species, and more from their completely opposing art styles.

yea, so anything that isn't like this video is...different...from this video
For reasons that must have made sense at the time. I think you're giving Sonic team too much credit
You know, I blocked out Heavy Rain from my memory so thank you for being that memory back
I KNEW Farenheit was gonna be in this one. I once read the love scene between Carla and Ethan described as "A moment of tender necrophilia on a dirty mattress surrounded by hobos."
I can’t believe the final line to a game was actually “Yes, I’m fine thank you.”
15:59 - "Death isn't the impediment it used to be." Is that a Red Dwarf reference from Mike?
Good spot!
I know it's somehow not on this list, but my number one is absolutely the forced and embarrassing Felicia Day kiss from that DLC for Dragon Age II
Ah, something else to haunt my dreams. Thanks Outside Xbox you've done it again. Though I'd make out to that sick guitar riff over the GoldenEye credits. Or vaguely move my arms?
That "Nice smile!" comment from Sonic would creep me out even if he was human tbh.
The Sonic one is really something special. It's not just that he's nominally a hedgehog and she's a human. It's not just that he's Saturday morning cartoon style and she's a final fantasy character model. Those things are serious problems they don't overcome.
But even if they were visually the same, there would still be the issue of how different they are tonally. Sonic's writing and performance make him a fun* cartoon character when the rest of the setting matches that tone, but in this tragic high fantasy kingdom those same traits make him seem like a child.
*Fun not guaranteed
Thank you for gracing my birthday with all but unbearable awkwardness! 😂
Happy Birthday. Hope you had a nice day.
Mike's "She can't be the Internet!" joke absolutely FLOORED ME
I may have injured myself cringing so hard over that Heavy Rain kiss. Ugh
Andy’s Arthur really throws me off guard😂 facial hair similar but I use the trappers made clothes from the legendary animals because I love the rugged gunslinger in pelts and long coats😂
I’ve watched this video as many as times as I’ve completed the “Prime Directive” in Mass Effect, I reckon.
If there was ever a microcosm of the infinitely human nature of this channel and its stellar humour, this is one of them. Cheeky bit of 007 in there and I’m loving it. Had me in stitches. ❤
Only David Cage could make two games in a row were he showcases how he doesn’t understand kissing
*Only* two games in a row could David Cage showcase he doesn't understand kissing?
Fuckin love the David Cage double-tap, sublime effort!
15:48 i snorted so loudly when Mike said this skjskjs
One of outsidexbox’s best videos And I’ve been around for some time. laughed so hard throughout.
Love you guys
Hello everyone who's escaping to the coment section, so they don't have to see one of the kisses on this list again. Don't worry, you're safe here.
Much appreciated!
You can unlock Natalya’s cell after eliminating all the guards. Much easier than trying not to hit her in the crossfire.
“And you know what, don’t worry about it” had me rolling 😂
I love the janky Dragon Age Inquisition kisses. Just because if you choose an dwarf or qunari as your player character, their romantic partners have to deal with the drastic height difference just to get a smooch. Personal favourites are Blackwall and Dorian trying to kiss their Qunari or Dwarf Inquisitor while breaking their necks.
Can the animation actually handle a Dwarf Inquisitor kissing The Iron Bull (who must surely be around twice their height)?
@@KeithFraser82 they have a beautiful trick lol they show your char is literally standing on a box XD
@Chocobofangirl Oh my god that was hilarious!
What about the movie tie-in game for the first Spider-Man movie? Spider-Man and Mary Jane making out on a burning bridge six feet away from the corpse of the main villain.
Came here purely for the sonic 06 moment
Honestly would’ve been better if the other characters were reacting like how they did in snapcube’s fandub on this
I remember being young and naive playing Destroy all Humans 2, not understanding why Natalia was making so much noise in the final mission and what “re-entry” meant, good times
In Final Fantasy 7, if you have Yuffie as your date at the Gold Saucer, she will give Cloud a kiss on the cheek in the gondola and admit she "just felt like doing that". Cloud doesn't reciprocate to the smooch and Yuffie notices and gets increasingly upset at being ignored. One snarky snark from Cloud later, you hear a loud audible slap over the romantic music suggesting Yuffie didn't appreciate not being taken seriously and gave him a big ol' slap.
MIKE WAS ON FORM IN THIS ONE!!! 😂😂😂
I clicked simply to hear the commentary and jokes about that sonic kiss.
That why in Mass Effect you should romance Garrus! ❤
The last one gave me shivers.
That was not an intentional pun. I cannot stress this enough
"Wanna have another go at that bud?"
........
"Just as bad, worse, if anything!"
😂🤣😭
That Heavy Rain scene is one of the most awkward things in general I've ever seen.
Robot Chicken had the funniest take on the interspecies romance angle, imho, with a bit about Alvin and the Chipmunks hooking up with some groupies.
As I see Sonic the Hedgehog's nose in 3D....I can't help but realize how much it must whistle when he breathes
Sonic & Elise feel fundamentally off as a pairing, despite none of the options in the Mass Effect series feeling like a problem at all. The Harkness Test would support all of those being perfectly fine, so it feels hypocritical to say that one interspecies relationship works and another doesn't, but despite that there's just something about the Sonic pairing that still just feels off.
Maybe it's the "cartoon" factor?
Revan and Bastilla in Knights of the Old Republic. So awkward that the screen faded to black before the kissing ever started, because we couldn't stand to see how bad it was. Just ask HK-47! Play the second game and he'll tell you how terrible they are at kissing.
Fully expected Mary Jane's odd slash awesome kiss with herself to be on this
The interspecies nature of Sonic and Elise is one thing, but the clashing artstyles just really bothers me sooooooooooo much.
Love the great shirt showcasing you folks did!
"Down one finger, and up one murder" 😂😂😂
I was expecting Spider-Man: The movie game (2002) to show up here. The green goblin passes in front of Spidey while delivering a somber line about his son and when Peter turns to MJ to say something, she just shushes him and they kiss in front of Norman's body.
Never get between Andy's Arthur Morgan and the hair tonic
I’d like to add Most Kirby games. When your ally is hurt and kirby gets a healing item, he shares that healing item in a “kiss”. While we never see them lip lock, it is almost confirms they do it.
I assume that it's probably closer to a bird feeding partially digested food to its chicks.
@@jothki Yeah, I just assumed Kirby was regurgitating the food into his helper's mouth.
