I genuinely lol’d at 5:49. Seven years of playing Hitman and has yet to concern himself with the game mechanic of unconscious witnesses? Yup, that tracks.
I ALWAYS love Andy giving helpful tips to Mike, Mike not using them at all, then Andy talking to himself to complete the interaction. "You could do this.....or not" 😂😂
Mike only beat Andy in multiplayer because he realized an issue with the format that allowed him to basically force a stalemate by setting himself an exceedingly easy goal...otherwise it would've been a war of attrition (which Mike, as a dad of a toddler, would easily win).
Being a silent assassin is its own merit, but if you're only good at hitman because of meticulous planning, then are you really good at Hitman? Andy's very methodical, Mike's really quick on his feet. Master both ways and you'll be the true king of hitman
@@SirStanleytheStumbler Do you remember the video where Mike got 5 stars for chucking a bomb at a target? Been wanting to watch it again, but just cannot remember. Feel like it was in Paris...
@@marhawkman303 I suppose he could be Chaos Undivided, after all. He wears Khorne's blood red, has the silhouette of a Nurgle devotee, uses Tzeentch-style magic shenanigans to fulfill his mission, which is to prey on children's (and adults') desires, Slaanesh style.
Ellen looked truly distraught by the final minute of it - but imagine how much more horrified she would have been if Mike found a non-breaking KO weapon and went fully Hotline Miami through that mansion.
It's hilarious that Mike said "Let's see if I can avoid punching this maid in the face...Ellen" when seconds before he thought nothing of braining a maid so hard that the bust shattered to pieces.
On the eighth day of Christmas, Oxboxtra gave to me: Eight guards unconscious, Seven blue hadoukens, Six webs a-swinging, Five butt stomped sheep, Four free fall fails, Three spells cast, Two chicken eggs, And fun Jedi hair styling
Mike shouting "Blood for the Blood God" as he runs at one more guard excellently and also pretty literally hammers home his Chaos Channeling antics (though Khorne would be displeased by the lack of bloodshed). I'm glad he kept his stealth as much as he did, but also glad he didn't when it was time. Also, every time I see his playthroughs go "full Mike" I always get envious. I wish I had the temerity he demonstrates instead of my regular 100% silent (and save-scumming) approach.
Love the way Mike gloats about gently subduing the maid Ellen punched unconscious, despite the fact that he brained one using a bust a few minutes earlier.
At some point we are going to need a full on Commander Chaos Hitman speed run where Mike just runs wild through a level killing everyone and creating absolute chaos to see how many he can take out before they stop him! lol
I like to imagine tiny Ellen sneaking up on someone and jumping on their back trying to subdue them. It'd be like wearing that backpack I used to have with the Union Jack on it.
@@merepseu, knowing what André was going through at the time, that'd likely be the case were I the one in his place...I'm not yet 40, but my knees are shot (and they're slowly taking the rest of me with them).
I haven't watched it yet, but I burst out laughing when I saw Mike snagged the Hitman challenge. EDIT: I am now one minute in and getting deja vu as I rewatched Violent Night the other day.
As an inverted Y player (the correct way to control a camera) I am shocked that we are only represented by one member of OX, there are dozens of us, dozens!!
On the eighth day of Xmas the Outside X team gave to me 8 skulls crushed 7 raging bulls 6 ignored crimes 5 dead goats 4 storey falls 3 healing potions 2 zombie loops And a Jedi Knight force tear
New OxBox XMas challenge: Andy has to sit and watch Mike play Hitman for 10 minutes and can’t comment about hiding bodies, using stealth/disguises, or Hitman-vision. Over/under is 20s. 😂😂
Nice that Ellen made this a fair challenge but she never really stood a chance since Mike and Hitman go together like peanut butter and sardines- a weird combination but so is Mike and stealth challenges- just weird.
My respect for Mike goes up with every chrismas video he's in. His 'I play inverted and there's nothing wrong with that' attitude makes me proud to play inverted
If I stuck a plunger to the top of your head, I’d pull backwards to make you look up and push forward to make you look down... “Inverted” is how nature intended us to control avatars...
@nightmarethrenody8232 well at least for me, I played a lot of spyro the dragon, and other flying games as a kid. They used the inverted y axis. So I guess I got used to that, so If I try to play without the inverted y axis, i get confused However no games, that I can remember ever had the x axis inverted so I didn't get used to that
These are always so fun, I wish there could be another competition somewhere in the middle of the year, Hallostream and Tournament of Champions is always such a great time. 😄👍
The damage done to that poor woman with the one-two bust in the back of the head/chin on the table as she fell forwards...I'd suspect a single punch to the face was the kinder of the two.
This video is everything that makes me happy. We got a nice dose of Ellen, we have Mike being his chaotic yet non rule breaking self on Hitman and Andy in the middle watching it all unfold *chefs kiss*
I'm with Mike about how Hitman Vision makes everything grey and dull. I understand that's a useful gameplay tool but as a viewer I appreciate Mike's chaotic shenanigans in a vibrant setting more than continuous minutes of meticulous professional hitmanning in bw.
Mike is actually quite good at Hitman. Andy hates his play style, but mike's strats are often things Andy can't pull off. I still remember the live stream they did where mike actually taught Andy how to shoot out cameras in hitman. :D
It was actually 14 for Mike, you could see them waking the guy he knocked out when he vaulted the railing at the bottom of the stairs, but that was enough to solidly win anyway. You can see someone crouching over the person at 18:42, and at 18:50, they are standing and you can hear the guard who woke them asking for a description.
Not long ago RU-vid suggested the OX video of the Hitman Beta and the best thing about that is that it's *Mike* reminding everyone that Hitman Vision exists.
I sincerely appreciate the vehement apologies everytime Mike's Inversion is shown on screen. It's nice to know that manners still have a place on the internet.
I propose a special challange just for Andy. No Hitman vision, not silencers, no non-leathal takedowns of any kind, no sneaking, no hiding bodies in chests/boxes/wardrobs (you can still move them), targets need to be exploded. On that fancy mansion map. You got three attempts to finish the level (and no saving nor reloading of any kind). We could also created an opposite version for Mike if that would motivate Andy to try it :))
