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

Wow Battle Kid 2 is definitely one of my favorite runs. The runner did an amazing job, he was seconds away from WR

Have to catch up on this FF disaster later hah
 
Why does this have Goldeneye Dam music lol?

Also, was the Halo 4 run any good? Like tricks/sequence break or insane strats, or was it just somebody who's really good at Halo 4.

The H4 run was great, only five minutes behind WR and great commentary. I think they got 20.000 in donations during that run alone.
 
FF1 stairs% is funny to hear about, but not really watch and not prime time material. The non-stairs FF1 any% run is pretty neat, though not marathon safe at all, as the wizards will likely ruin it. Feasel used to have some crazy long streams attempting it. The resource management and step count stuff make it a really strict run and it's about 3.5 hours.

Cool thanks, I had to go to sleep and missed it and have never seen an H4 run so I wasn't sure if they were interesting or not. Will watch.

I have like all of my free time TV watching booked for weeks with all the VOD lol.

I still haven't watched all the good runs of 2015.

BCAS owns?

a ROM hack with more movement options for quicker runs. It's also got some AI changes and layout differences for a challenge.
 
How am I supposed to enjoy this unofficial travesty? :-(
 
I don't see how it's any worse than the Mario World or OoT glitch warps.

Because those still incorporate interesting setups within their respective gameplays and have more going on. They also don't have minutes of stair walking and nothing else in the run- you don't get to see any battles or real strategy in the FF1 run other than what they name their characters.

Even the FF4 equivalent of the glitch is more interesting because the stair climbing is just a small part of the run and the pay off leads to a lot of more interesting things happening.

IIRC they ran FF1 at Best of NES in 2015 and they did a decent job making it marathon safe for the most part. For Wizards you would only have to try again from the start of the Marsh Cave and they have a grinding point later to set up for the rest of the game.

The same way everyone enjoyed Kaizo Mario 3?
He's joking. :P One guy earlier in the thread was upset that they were running an unofficial game and that sort of become an inside meme in this thread.
 
could the coop aspect of MM be that they switch the gamepad whenever they transform and each player will be cosplaying each link persona ? :D
and then 4p1c for fierce diety
 
Chrism's Mario Galaxy run later should be pretty good. Just learned of him during a Mario marathon a couple of weeks ago, good player and was pretty entertaining.

The co-op isn't really what's happening. This was talked about in a thread on reddit.

Co-op means that they will play segemnts of the game and then switch because it's so damn long.

EDIT: Also last run I watch that was so long so late at night must have been the 5 and a half hour skyward run on SGDQ 2014.
 
Does Golden run anything else? He looks super familiar from past GDQsand I'm wondering if it's past MM segments I'm thinking of.
 
I missed him. What was that all about?
One dude yesterday was occupying a front seat all the time and pretending to call someone (display of his phone still on and constantly like "aha... Yeah... Cool... *winkwink*").
