List of X-Play Characters - "M" Characters

"M" Characters

• "Juno MacGuff": A dual parody of the main character from the film Juno and the World of Warcraft series of commercials featuring celebrities discussing the virtues of the character classes they play in the game (here dubbed World_Of_Warcrack.Com).

First Appearance: Episode No. 20080227

Performed by: Unknown

• The Mac Gamer: In a parody of the Get a Mac ad campaign, the X-Play writers came up with a fictitious video game console called the Apple iBox. The iBox is represented by the Mac Gamer (modelled after Justin Long's portrayal of a Mac), while his counterpart is the Sony Gamer. The Mac Gamer is amused that the Sony Gamer would bother with such things as "wires" and "controllers"; the iBox is just a box, and he likes it that way. When the Sony Gamer asks him how you're supposed to actually play the iBox, the Mac Gamer (after giving him a confused look) proudly proclaims that he thinks "that's part of the game".

Performed by: former X-Play head writer Blair Butler

• "Magneto": see Stewart, Patrick

• Majewski: A scrawny pitcher (first name unknown) who has a true love for the game of baseball ... until it's squeezed out by an overbearing coach (played by Adam Sessler) who tells him - among other things - that he slept with his mother.

First Appearance: Episode No. 6049

Performed by: X-Play production assistant Eric Acasio

• Man-Yuna: Also known by the derogatory term "Fat Yuna", this male (and overweight) cosplayer is fashioned after the Final Fantasy character Yuna. He (she?) is probably best known for giving Adam his first on-screen spanking (NOTE: This character may be in reference to the real-life male cosplayer known as Man-Faye).

First Appearance: Episode No. 233

Performed by: X-Play head writer Guy Branum

• Mario: A parody of the iconic Nintendo mascot, appearing in a fictional film trailer for a fictional horror movie entitled Mushroom Kingdom Massacre. Premiering during X-Play's one-hour Mario special (to coincide with their review of Super Mario Galaxy), the trailer features a group of teenagers who have stumbled into the Mushroom Kingdom (with a vandalized sign that has 'room' and 'dom' covered in black paint, and a red line through the picture of Mario), where they meet an old man who tells them that Mario was once a sweet innocent video game character ... until gamers humiliated him, preferring more violent titles like Grand Theft Auto and Gears of War. Mario took the whole thing personally and presumably decided to become more violent himself, going on a murderous rampage whose victims included his pet dinosaur (hung upside-down from a noose) and even his own brother (one of the teenagers discovers he's sitting next to Luigi's skeleton). The trailer ends with "Mario" delivering his classic catchphrase "It's-a me!" in his usual voice, before growling out his name and smashing the camera with a hammer (NOTE: X-Play featured another Mario parody, portrayed by a different actor, during their review of Mario Kart for the Wii).

First Appearance: Episode No. 7112

• Flint Marko: see "Sandman"

• Mousey McCheesepaws: see Glenn, John

• Memory Card: A psychotic serial killer who would conceal his identity (in a parody of Billy the Jigsaw Puppet from the movie Saw) by speaking through a modified R.O.B. robot. During the 2006 Halloween episode, Memory Card kidnapped a number of G4TV hosts and put them through a series of tortuous deaths (Kevin Pereira had a Virtual Boy strapped to his head and played Wario Land until his eyes burned out of his skull, Zach Selwyn was cut in half by a combination DDR dancepad/beartrap, etc.); Adam and Morgan were both trapped in a room wearing modified Power Gloves that were rigged to explode after 30 minutes unless they listed the top ten scariest video games of all time. At the end of the episode, it was revealed that the person behind the "Memory Card" persona was actually Aquaman, who wanted revenge on X-Play for naming his Battle for Atlantis the worst game of all time.

First Appearance: Episode No. 6111

Performed by: "R.O.B." (Unknown), "Aquaman" (Michael Leffler)

First Appearance: Episode No. 20081215

Performed by: "Alex Mercer" (Unknown), Gary (Unknown), Nate (Unknown), Doug (Unknown)

• "Freddie Mercury": Adam's impersonation of the deceased Queen vocalist. During his review of the game Mercury Meltdown, Adam would display what he called a "real Mercury meltdown", by dressing up in stereotypical rocker attire and screaming nonsensically while performing "on stage."

First Appearance: Episode No. 6117

Performed by: Adam Sessler

• "Mikey": see The "Teutuls"

• "Bode Miller": A parody of the controversial alpine skier, who hosts his own talk show called Miller Time with Bode (which is just an excuse for him to get drunk and say incredibly stupid things).

First Appearance: N/A

Performed by: X-Play segment producer Mark Fahey

• "Billy Mitchell": see Kong-Net

• Monkey People: A group of sentient ape-men (whose appearance is similar to characters from the Planet of the Apes series of films) who are pumping G4TV hosts full of toxic psychotropic substances in order to test the effects on their mental state (with no long-term side effects other than testicular cancer).

• Morgan-San and Adam-San: The fictitious hosts of X-Play Japan (actually two Asian actors dressed to look like the real Adam and Morgan, including a blonde wig for Adam-San). During the show's coverage of TGS '06, Adam and Morgan claimed that the international rights to X-Play had been bought by the Kino-Hara Corporation, a Japanese mega-conglomerate, and would now be re-tooled so as to be more appealing to the homeland audience (meaning a lot of bright nonsensical graphics and a guy in a panda suit, amongst other "changes"). There are even Japanese versions of other X-Play recurring characters: Guy LaFleur becomes Canada Man, Eric the Intern is now Shirt-No-Eric, and so forth.

First Appearance: Episode No. 6100

Performed by: Morgan-San (Unknown), Adam-San (Unknown), Assault Panda (Unknown), Judgement Mole (Unknown), Canada Man (Unknown), Drunken Link (Unknown), Shirt-No-Eric (Unknown), Angry Gentleman (Unknown)

• "Mother Brain": A parody of the main villain from the Metroid series of games, presented as a pixelated cartoon (similar in style to the G4 series Code Monkeys) with a male voice and a bit of an attitude. "She" seems more intent on arguing with protagonist "Samus Aran" rather than killing her, but their conversations always end with Samus blowing "Mother Brain" away with a shot from her photon cannon.

First Appearance: Episode No. 20081205

Performed by: "Mother Brain" (Unknown), "Samus Aran" (Unknown)

• Mr. and Mrs. Bob Muffin: During their review of RPG Maker 3, the writers of X-Play decided to create their own RPG storyline, only fused with the show's unique brand of humor. Thus was born the epic adventures of Mr. and Mrs. Bob Muffin, an elderly couple sworn to protect the world from an evil portal to Hell created by the rock band Styx. During their quest, Bob and Silvia encounter Mr. Roboto (a robot who was turned into a monkey by the evil Dennis DeYoung) and have a singing contest with the monkey-robot king Kilroy. Silvia turns out to be the hero of the story, as Bob seems to do nothing more than complain that he has soiled himself ... While Morgan seems to think that this RPG storyline clearly proves that the people who work on X-Play are insane, Adam says that he would enjoy playing a "pants-crapping sidequest".

First Appearance: Episode No. 5121

Performed by: Bob Muffin (voice of Paul Bonanno), Silvia Muffin (voice of Blair Butler), Kilroy (Unknown)

• Murderality: A parody of professional video-game players like Fatal1ty, this character is supposedly the top-ranked videogamer in the world, with championships in over 50 different games. However, it seems that the only way he can win is by cheating, as he threw a "live" rattlesnake at Adam during a demonstration match (NOTE: Apparently, the person playing the part of Murderality - a comedy writer from California named Irwin Handleman - had a very unpleasant experience during the shooting of this skit, as he explained in his blog that Adam and Morgan were difficult to work with).

First Appearance: Episode No. 6097

Performed by: Irwin Handleman

• Musashi: see Hanzo and Musashi

• "Mister Mxyzptlk": The infamous DC Comics super-villain once tried to trap Adam and Morgan in a "dream world", until they called comic-book aficionado Blair Butler and tricked Mxyzptlk into saying his name backwards (thus banishing him back to his home dimension).

First Appearance: Episode No. 7046

Performed by: X-Play co-producer Paul Bonanno

• Myth Crackers!: A parody of the MythBusters television program, meant to debunk various urban legends associated with video games. The Myth Crackers! consist of Nebil Flavian (a character who has also appeared in skits parodying nature shows like Wild Kingdom) and Don RonJon.

First Appearance: N/A

Performed by: Nebil Flavian (Paul Bonanno), Don RonJon (Guy Branum)
