Speedruns are basically videos of people getting through video games in as little time as possible. Some awesome stuff people have accomplished has been

- Half Life in 30 minutes
- Super Mario Bros. 3 in less than 11 minutes
- Super Mario 64 in six minutes (wtf)
- Super Metroid in 32 minutes!

I'm going to try to spread the speed run gospel and stream some of my favorite speed runs until TSL starts. Please join me at http://tv.zeroboy.net/gomrebroadcast and be amazed at the mad skillz of people who play video games a lot.

See you tomorrow

I did the entire sc/bw campaign in 17 hours!

Speedruns are fun except it's soooo much work to get them ideal in most games... ugh not for me.

Make sure you're clear about which speedruns are tool-assisted and which are played 'normally,' and what that means.

I mean yeah I'm watching it either way but I'm pretty sure Mario 64 in six minutes requires superhuman precision on the back long jumps.

The other ones sound like they're humanly possible, though.

(edit: I mean clear as in, let people know, not as in make sure you know. I'm pretty sure you know.)

i love watching quake 2 speedruns, what some people do with rocket and grenade jumps blows my mind.

Most of these involving abusing glitches and bugs in the game, nothing amazing really, just a bunch of kids who've memorized the level layouts.

I say Julyzerg's 880APM is still much more impressive

You just wait until they finish the Tool Assisted one... It'll blow you the fuck away.

Also, you should probably include the standard disclaimer (courtesy of swordless link):

The actual movie publication, as well as my comments on the run, can be found here: (Insert Link)

This movie was made on an emulator, with frame-by-frame shooting, savestates and rerecords. It is NOT meant to show skill; it is ONLY supposed to provide entertainment. Try to remember that speedruns and TASes are different. Speedruns aim to show how skilled the runner is, and TASes aim to provide an entertaining video for the viewer. There's nothing more to it. Try to appreciate each category for what they are.


If you enjoyed watching this video, then visit http://tasvideos.org/ for more information on tool-assisted speedruns, and to watch the many already-existing tool-assisted


Give credit where credit is due etc. and I'll definately watch the stream.

The 30 minute half-life run is simply amazing, one of the best speedruns I have seen.

This. BLJ precision is incredibly difficult using frame-advance, let alone in real time. Tool-assisted sub-6 minute runs weren't possible until the game could be completed without stars, which is definitely tool-assisted ONLY.

EDIT: The fastest non-TAS run is 17 min.

And you need to distinguish playing with loading/saving, and playing in one run. For example I remember a diablo 1 speedrun which reloaded until the exit of the levels was very close to the startingpoint of the level.
