Who's The WORST Video Game Character With Sunglasses?! 

I think they're starting to figure out we really like Tim Rogers

Timprovisation should absolutely be an ongoing series

There should be a game where people just shout out random games and Tim explains the box art from memory.

THREE tim rogers videos in one week? whatever did we do to deserve this treasure trove of delightful rambling?

That Miller and Snake impression was flawless.

“It’s like an accountant wrote Toy Story”

This video is peak “you need to publish at least 1 piece of video content per week” and I’m here for it

Never too much Tim Rogers in my subscription box however the more Tim Rogers there is the more intelligent I as well as my fellow youtubers get. Tim Rogers is my video game cool step dad. In fact I’ve learned to speak and more so form sentences in English merely by listening to Tim Rogers. Tim Rogers you may not be the best English teacher, but you might just be the hottest and most intelligent video game reporter ever.

"I realize I'm right most of the time" - Tim Rogers, 2019 (text at 3:55)

I wonder if I could be a sunglasses guy Guile from Street Fighter is an important sunglasses wearer. In SFV your taunt puts them on and continues fighting. I can't think of a better use of sunglasses in a video game.

Really impressive memory and recall skills on display here

Tim, I love the Commodore Amiga with all my heart, but I'll admit I laughed at, "It's like an Amiga made a game by itself".

First sunglasses wearing character I thought of was Boshi from Super Mario RPG. He's on the bad side, though. His name could literally be a portmanteau of Butthole Yoshi. It isn't, but it could be.

Well, that was amazing. Please make more content like this. Also, Dr.Robotnik/Eggman wears sunglasses in most variations of his character design. They are often blue-tinted, which I think is how the current character design looks. The Adventure-era Eggman had black sunglasses as did the design found in the immensely popular and universally loved Sonic the Hedgehog for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 released in the year of our lord 2006. Some variants have him wearing goggles, not sure if such treachery to sunglasses culture excludes him from consideration.

I'm glad you mentioned Two Crude Dudes! Me and my brother loved the HECK out of that game! I'm also surprised you didnt do the "Snake, Did You Like My Sunglasses?" quote when the moment arose. Great video anyway - you're ace!

The Roy Rogers joke is golden.

Tim Rogers and Brian David Gilbert are my OTP

Squirtle and his gang rock them sunglasses. Technically Snake can too in MGS2. Geralt from the Witcher series can optionally wear them. Mario rocks dem sunglasses when he inhabits the Moe-eye statue in Odyssey. Robot from Steamworld Dig has them while he's mining sweet ore. Johnny Gat from Saint's Row (may he rest in peace).

Three Tim videos this week it's like Kotaku know it was my birthday this week! Please Tim never stop rambling on the internet your content is amazing!

thank you for being brave enough to speak the truth re: the aladdin games

This man's shockingly impressive memory makes me feel like I'm watching my brain think. I've really enjoyed watching this 20 minute nothingness of awesome. Tim is a gem

that snake impression is so good

K' from King of Fighters 99 on uses his sunglasses in one of his moves, and he pops on another pair after destroying his old pair. That's at least two sunglasses on his person at any time.

Great video as always, Tim. I would love to see a video from you hosting a "Chill off" between DQXI and BotW

I guess this Tim Rogers guy is ok. Is he the reason I originally subscribed? Maybe. Maybe not.

The back stinger with Funky killed me. Also any way to make DQ number 1 - love it

Sam "serious" stone wear sunglasses and he is awesome. Also boon from Fallout NV sunglasses P.s. what about the shop keeper from bayonetta?

Great video. Was waiting for the Johnny cage mention lol. Melchior from Chrono Trigger wears sunglasses I think.

as someone who worked on NMH2, i'm truly surprised you didn't think to mention Travis. still a very good vid though.

From FF - Al-Cid in 12. He takes his off and makes his assistant hold them

LOL your snake impression is spot on

I really enjoy this format, instant like...

Tim’s Snake impression was actually pretty good!

you didn’t realize that cool spot’s sole’s are bottle caps. now you know he’s actually a pretty great design.

Damn you know a lot about game history, haha just one more reasons why we need more content from you and exposure for you.

I can't believe you spoke Ill of cool spot. That game was amazing

Zero preparation cracked me up.

Yo! Representing a U.S.-Made glasses company! Respect! Shuron is another good one!

Travis Touchdown. Kevin Smith.

“That game sucks. I love it.”

hmm, how about Beat from Jet Grind Radio? Although maybe they are just goggles.. idk

Tim’s content is so amazing. Give this man a RAISE

Great stuff as always

Wait, is this a one off or a series? I love It!

I don't understand why this video and most of the others by Tim Rogers don't have 400,000 views instead of 14,000. This is the best content on RU-vid and I genuinely don't understand why it hasn't taken over the world. Maybe it's because RU-vid is viewed mostly by really young people and this content appeals to older gamers (30s/40s+) who remember all these games? idk but it's tragic

I was prepared to be enraged that Tim didn't remember Johnny Cage.

One time, Tim said on Twitter that he'd like to see a Psi-Ops remake. I replied that "no one wants that, what we want is a Burnout 3 remake." He shot back with "hey buddy, I'll block you for talk like that." Now I find out that he doesn't like Cool Spot. I understand it's not the best game ever, but it has some good music and in 1993 it blew my mind. So ya know what Tim? I'm the reason for your 2 year old headache. And I'm gonna make it worse.

Tim Rogers is the best thing about this channel. Glad he’s getting more content.

HUGE shoutout to two crude dudes

This timprovisation is god darn impressive.

The entire cast of Sonic Riders have some sort of sunglasses or goggles. Though most of them don't wear them on their eyes but rest them on their head.

I adore this man.

Dont buy the 7up. Not retro looking enough. Ps clearly the coolest characters with glasses are Travis Touchdown and Riddick.

Tim has an incredible David Hayter Solid Snake impression

shoutouts to kid chameleon minor correction: the music in kid chameleon was done by mark miller of neuromantic productions, not tommy tallarico sorry, i couldn't resist

It's frightening how he remembers all this off the top of his head, especially the box arts.

What a beautiful David Hayter Impression!

Tim, you are an inspirovisation

Tim rogers for smash... I'll finally buy the character pass if you do it Nintendo... I promise.

I need Timspirational quotes each day, perhaps as a calendar, to inspire me to greatness.

SOME would say that your ability to remember the exact release years of every game and movie you've mentioned so far is... astounding. But that's just me.

Remember Deus Ex? That game had a lot of people wearing sunglasses. There was also that guy Johnny, who bike raced you in Chrono Trigger.

I loved this; bless you Tim Rogers. Video Games Forever!

Literally just said “WHOA!” out loud at Tim hating on Earl.

Thanks for existing Jim rorgis

You forgot Funky Kong, Tim!

I was thinking that Persona 4 is filled with sunglasses, but those (often drawn as very slightly tinted) glasses probably don't count.

I don't even need to tell you that the character Kool in Poy Poy, wears sunglasses.

Kotaku just realized the power of the Tim

After that glorious Duke nukem roast I want to see a Tim Rogers-LGR smack down

i love u, tim rogers. thank u for the always excellent content

I will watch Tim Rogers do any video. I can't wait to watch him play FFVII remake next year. UNLESS WE DIE due to the anticipation.

Tim Rogers just starts to make more and more of these WHY EVEN videos and I still watch all of them

How did you forget K Dash from King of Fighters when talking about KoF characters? One of his supers involves him throwing his glasses at you to start the combo.

This is god damn gold. I mean, god damn!

His Solid Snake impression is surprisingly good.

Hey Tim! Love your content. I don't subscribe to Kotaku on principle, but I have your video list in my library so I can try to catch all your stuff. Seems like not all videos make it there, though. Anything you can do about that would be much appreciated! Also, if you left Kotaku to do your own thing, I would gladly back you on patreon or subscribestar or whatever.

never mind the sun glasses... lovin that green 'gene!!!

The King of Content

OK. that was fun to watch.

In two years this video will be ported...WITH A NEW FUNKY MODE!

Deacon from Fallout 4......... great video, man. was this off the top of your head?? wtf

James MacLeod from Lylat Wars 64 (Starfox 64) also wore them. I couldn't think of any other character because of him

How good is this guy

Kazuhira Miller from MGS always jumps to my mind when I think of bad (read: cool) dudes with sunglasses, but I suppose Liquid Miller counts just as much. Related, I recently bought yellow-tinted “sunglasses” for my own chronic migraines, looks like all that time I spent playing as Crimson Viper in SFIV may have had an effect on my subconscious.

What about Kojima and his sunglasses?!

Probably my favorite pair while growing up were the ones on Beat in JET SET RADIOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

What about squirtle from the squirtle squad ??? Cmon man

there is a secret sunglasses team ending in kof 2002 um consisting of Clark, K', and Choi

10:55 a pretty decent Solid Snake

Stuff like this rates high among the reasons why I love the internet.

omg could we just talk about how tim lowkey has hyperthymesia

this has some insert credit podcast energy

Funky Kong was my #1 thought of a video game character with sunglasses. Also there are some great Deadly Premonition characters with sunglasses.

once the tangent started, i was waiting for kid chameleon i wasn't disappointed

I’m leaving your house now - I liked Cool Spot.

Gotta be either Travis Touchdown or Teddy from MOTHER. Nice Nalgene Timothy.

I can't believe Barret didn't make the list...

Don't forget Travis Touchdowm

I am living for the BDG/Tim Rogers crossover event, that would be my Endgame.
