That was awesome. Why'd they estimate that at 45 minutes, though?

Has to be one of the most unpredictable races, particularly as blindfolded. With two players, the risk of one getting a bad pattern, and not able to get out of it must be huge.

In most other runs, people can change their strategy, or at least identify where things have gone wrong and react.

Blindfolded you just got to hope for the best.
 
SO glad I tuned in for this at work. WOW is all I can say.
I'm secretly glad it was Zallard over Sin. He doesn't get the recognition he should.
 
Blindfolded Punch-Out!!, blindfolded Battletoads section, wow, just wow at the attempt to do those. Highly skilled people here.

Mirror's Edge theme, LAWD.
 
Only caught the tail end, but that Mike Tyson fight was even crazier than the blindfolded Super Punch-Out last year.

What's incredible is how the consensus last year was that Tyson could basically not be done blindfolded. Now both do it, and without a hitch as well.

What the fuck, this was insane.

And yes, I've obviously added this to the must watch runs
 
To put those times into context, 2 years ago, Sinister took on Tyson and lost at about 34 minutes.

He then took off the blindfold to a standing ovation.

And finished the fight with ease and his eyes.

Now? Just smash the whole thing in less time, the whole thing, blindfolded.
 
Watching this SOMA run and 5 minutes in, I'm already annoyed. He constantly ridicules Frictional Games, it's so rude.

I agree. Especially because a bunch of devs either tune in to watch their games being run or like pimp out AGDQ on their twitter.
 
Mirror's Edge is one of my favorite games of all time, but I didn't really enjoy it the last time I watched because of how much was just jumping in solid black areas outside the levels.

It would be neat if there were an inbounds% category for the game.
 
People have probably mentioned it a lot, but man, the stream setup is still pretty amazing. It's a pretty good looking layout. Also the Robocop Gameboy theme is pretty great.

I believe there is a glitchless run category.
 
Punch Out Run was glorious ! Like the end of a speedrun trilogy or something.

Mirror Edge is an awesome game, but seeing it being speedrun makes me dizzy
 
These events go on way too long for me to catch anything but occasional glances but stuff like that blindfolded Punch Out race make me feel like if I poke my head in the door for a half hour and see something THAT amazing, what the hell else am I missing during the entire week this is happening...?
 
Sinister does look alot like an adult Daniel from Karate Kid
 
Too bad they're setting the graphics way down, this game still looks absolutely stunning on PC with max settings-

you would think on these PC's they could max a lot of things and keep it running at 60, the computer used last year for the main runs was a BEAST of a pc.
