Awesome Games Done Quick 2016: January 3rd - 10th.

Best speed game coming up

For fun, boot up Gimmick in an emulator and try a few star rides, then imagine hitting them consistently. Game is fucking hard!
 
I missed a good chunk of it but what I saw of the Battle Kid 2 run was great. I'll have to watch it in full when I have more time later.

Woops, sorry, the run itself was good. I meant to say was a cringe fest due to the terrible singing, which makes it a highlight. The run itself was good and interesting, but not necessarily a "highlight moment" if it wasn't for the singing. My mistake.

I still hold on the terrible singing (except for Spike and that guy singing the Gaston song. That was legit.)

Man people really do overuse "cringe" when talking about these events :P :/

Not sure if Pajama or Cosplay xD
 
lookin' forward to this particular race :V

I can tell!


Also, and this is to detract nothing from the runner or say that people don't have types of runs they prefer or like but can we please not do the combative "this is so much more impressive and skillful than glitch runs" bullshit? The Battle Kid 2 run was tremendous and super fun and entertaining but so was the Half Life 2 one and there's no need to shit on one to say the other was good.

Glitch runs take skill and may not be "HOW DA GAME WAS SPOSED TA BE PLAYED" but that doesn't make them any less skilled, impressive or fun.

That said, that Battle Kid 2 run was fucking sick.
 
Son of a bitch for some reason I thought this was next week, argh.

Oh well, three days of VODs to catch up on is not a bad thing. :)
 
I've watched several Gimmick runs but was totally oblivious to the item manipulation via score :(

Also you can swap turtles on the fly in TMNT?
 
Don't know why but seeing this makes me so excited for Platinum's TMNT game.

Cowabunga!
 
Ninja Gaiden runs are always freaking awesome, and the commentary is excellent as usual.

I love this.


Edit: that was CRAZY
 
Didn't know someone had figured out a quick kill for Ashtar. It's so awesome when people start doing things once thought to be tas only.
 
I remember struggling at lot on NG2 (especially since I played it as a child), so it was really impressive to see it beat that quickly at 10:26.
