The Mega Man Unlimited Run and the Ninja Gaiden relay race are definitely worth watching.

Was extremely disappointed as it was the one run I was really wanting to watch and I had to turn it off. This AGDQ.....

fwiw I copied the vod link into the first post of this thread so it's easy to find when you want to look something up.

I skimmed through the Tetris thing and didn't see why it was so cool, certainly it's crazy fast and they're obviously very good at the game, but like...so? idk, the entire thing with speedrunning is that the guys playing the games are all way better than me, I guess it's hard for me to differentiate between someone who's an elite speedrunner at one game vs someone who's elite at Tetris.

Need more blindfolded punchout.

Need less 30 minute setups.

The run of that was about 30 minutes from the end. Guy achieves a rank only achieved by the best players on earth. It's incredible

Also, both the run where the guy builds a null space arrow and the team version are ridiculously difficult

Loving this majoras mask speedrun. He's crushing the things he's trying to do and they're doing a great job of explaining everything

Xcom is a game I think conforms well to those who loved these games.

Hmm, yeah, their version gives you a list of every piece that will drop in what order before you place the first. And they've set up a special initial state (not an empty game board)

Also Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, Xenogears

i skipped mana and chrono trigger (did chrono trigger later on emulators).

But I remember being addicted to renting xenogears, while being stuck before that arena thing, could never find out what I was missing, after doing the whole map and every rooms 10 times >.<

That game was good

smrpg is 4th or 5th most nostalgic game for me (number 1 is chrono trigger)
