Oh god I'm missing it catching up on VoDs. What'd he break now?

[Pikabread]

Nice one, Ome

(that tetris run was incredible, also, PJ breaking Bionic Commando was incredible)

[Telamon]

So they updated the schedule with details about the TASblock:

TASBot plays Super Mario Bros. 1, 2 + 3
One Controller Three Games

!!!

[Ashan]

Mario block is coming up soon. Land, Bros 3, and World. Then right after is MMX games. I don't know why they had to concentrate all the good games into today.

I'd also like to watch OoT tonight, but I have to be up for work tomorrow unfortunately :(

[Pikabread]

I think protomagicalgirl just became my favorite speedrunner
WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Ashan]

Cujo is so good and SMB3 is an insane speedgame

[Telamon]

This SMW low% run has put the biggest damn smile on my face.

[Ashan]

I never actually watched reze before, but wow is he good. Those shell jumps are nothing to scoff at.

None of the All Castles runners even got the one in YI4, and then reze came in and just started casually doing them left and right.

[Jesuiscontent]

I was wondering how he was going to do star world 4 without powerups, nice shell setup

[ACesspoolofHatred]

PEPSIMANNNNNNN

[Telamon]

I don't think I'll ever get tired of Super Metroid runs. Such a brutal route, so much drama.

[TheFinalSentinel]

BEHEMOTH! BEHEMOTH! BEHEMOTH! BEHEMOTH!

EDF! EDF! EDF!

BEHEMOTH! BEHEMOTH! BEHEMOTH! BEHEMOTH!

EDF! EDF! EDF!

That was amazing. He wrecked, but kept his cool. Oats you can just tell was going to get hit with a stunning collapse.

That Old Man River rendition was pretty good too

[TheFinalSentinel]

Another reminder to check out the Jak & Daxter 100% Japanese dub if you haven't seen it.
Run starts about 2 minutes in.

Seriously, you should watch it. It's easily the most entertaining run I've seen in the 3+ years I've been watching GDQs.

Full playlist has been uploaded to youtube

Any other recommendations, besides what's already been mentioned?

[Lostsoldier20]

The Witness run is probably good. I'm pretty sure Fearful Ferret is the one that did the one puzzle game at AGDQ and it was really cool to watch. I forget the name. Though that game was more open and had a lot of platforming elements... Witness is solving panels over and over.

Crypt of the Necrodancer is probably a nice short one to watch.

If they ever get the Pikmin run fixed (stupid copyright...) then I'd be willing to bet that's a great run

[Telamon]

Yeah, I went to watch the Pikman one, that's a bummer. I guess there isn't really time to vet all the copyright stuff during that initial rush of uploads.

[Ashan]

I finally got around to watching the TAS block. The 4 games 1 input thing was pretty impressive but impossible to watch. I ended up skipping it cause I just didn't know what to look at.

Yeah, I was disappointed. The light-up controllers were really neat as well, though in that context they didn't really...show much?

I'd totally forgotten about Tetris Grand Master, and holy crap is that an amazing block. definitely one of my favorite parts of the marathon.

[Ashan]

I didn't understand what the light up controllers were supposed to represent. If it was 1 input, why were all the controllers doing different inputs?

[Telamon]

Different amounts of lag, apparently. It does seem to kind of defeat the purpose, but I'm not the one with the robot...
