as someone who doesn't ever watch monkey ball runs (except when Cosmo was doing them) I appreciate the narration, but I can see how it would be a bit annoying.

Wait, did they say Xbox 360 controller? Are they playing it via BC?
Yeah, he mentioned playing it on the 360 because the OG Xbox controller wasn't as comfortable.
Yes, he said he plays it via BC on 360 because he likes the controller better, and commented on how the textures bug out sometimes because of it.

man twitch chat is poison. I know that's not exactly breaking news, but I can usually ignore it. It just makes me feel tired when I accidentally see it. It's so contrary to the greatness of the actual event, it's jarring.

If true that is really commendable of them. Love the dedication that the people put into these events.
Will probably buy a shirt and/or donate something, but I'm always of two minds on these events for big charities. All this work up until now and they basically paid for the CEO's yearly salary (about 250k-300k). Never really understood the high payout for these charity CEO positions but I won't make a fuss about it, business is business. Hopefully they will make a lot of money this year and the money will be put to good use.

I was mostly just making sure I was not being crazy.
I am going to pick it up if I ever get another 360.
The little arrow in the upper right of the window hides the chat.
That button is your friend.
People love their Monkey Balls.

God that monkey ball run makes me feel like I have ADD.
I've been wanting to turn off the stream for the past 30 minutes but it's like..'Oh a new stage! I wonder how he'll clear this one! Oh a new stage! I wonder how he'll clear this one! Oh a new stage...etc.'
Man, that is bad for me. It's like those damn youtube cuts.

It really is weird. I had to force the mouse to actually stop the stream so I could get something else done.
I've only ever played Monkey Ball on the Wii, which wasn't nearly as good, but I still make it a tradition to watch its speedruns every year, they're so entertaining. Looking forward to Mischief Makers too.
Could someone please invite me to this chat? Twitch username is same as here Devonodev.

It's Setup Portal. They usually give setups some nice names, like Setup Gear Solid etc.
Edit: Looks like I'm wrong on this one, wut.

They misspelled "happiness" in the last cutscene.
Good run overall!
Good run overall!
It says Setup Portal on the schedule, but maybe there's a game?

super monkey ball is a fucking terrifying game
yeah, it is setup.
read it as super.
but anyways, don't know what setupt portal is either.
and he plays monkey ball 6 hours a day?
So I watched the SMB Lost Levels run with Big Jon, and there was a link to his facebook profile on his twitch page.
You know I thought he was just obese, but uh...
He's pretty jacked.
the fuck, i thought he was fat

Almost time for SHAKE SHAKE!
It's one of my favorite games of all time. I love when it shows up at GDQ.
One of the very best n64 games and one of my personal favorites.
It's quite a normal chunk of time for speed runners and frequent streamers. Many runners play their games for even longer daily, a lot of time and effort goes into getting this good.
