No, that is.

No, this is.

Umm.... wow, I would like to see a 2 hour video of that. That is almost as astonishing, maybe as much, as the Quake 2 Single player video collection of the top times for each level, beating the game in 10+ minutes.

Sometimes games can be beaten fast enough, but I dont know about that. My mind just doesnt register the fact that its possible to beat the game in 2 hours, honestly.

Hell, even though this kid did beat it that fast and I suppose its official, he has no fraggin life!

[Kidnemo]

Wow.

I'd like to watch a video of it, sped up three or four times so you could see the game completed in like ten minutes.

[Thief Silver]

You can't watch it in 10 minutes, but near 15

That was me actually, and now I'm gonna call him a big fat liar (although I may just be misremembering the amount of time he said).

[Bacon McShig]

Um, I don't see any note of whether he obtained every item in that time (heart containers, and the few non-essential items). I'd be much more impressed were that the case.

But dont get me wrong, it's impressive either way.

How the hell do you know that?
Just because he set a high score he "has no life"?


I'm pretty damn impressed by his record.

I honestly don't understand what's the point in trying to beat a game the fastest (unless there is some sort of bonus you get), I personally like to enjoy the game instead of trying to rush thru it

I imagine this will spark up a speed runs website much like the Metroid Speed Runs. I bet the time will get shorter and shorter as someone finds a better item order or some crap, like any race. I like stuff like this, even though I won't attempt this.
