halo was good.
neir was above average.
battle kid was good.
guac melee was good.
the mirrors edges were great
donkey kong 64 is a standout.
jet set radio was good.
doom is great.
rest I havent seen or just average.
a lot of the humor from previous years has been neutered, you can tell a lot of runners and couch people are nervous when they try to toe the line. this is unfortunate. 2014 and 2015 (2014 was the first year I watched live) were a lot more loose with the humor, sometimes it went down in flames but mostly it was more fun.

Pokemon run was fantastic! I never played the games so I didn't know what to expect and was always a big fan of the older games (red/blue/yellow/silver/gold/crystal) so it was great to see similar bosses and pokemons used in battles in upgraded graphics and with explanations too.

all the runs i wanna watch are at horrible times for me (half life, silent hill, TES oblivion)
|
I plan to just catch the VODs, but yeah - some of the big games are really scheduled in a non-friendly way to EU viewers.

These guys are hardcore gamers, i don't think i could even try to glitch frame perfect stuff, nor pixel close passages.

OMG Onimusha up next. I remember being a little kid, stuck at the point where you had to shoot the arrow at the flying thing blocking the way. I couldn't do it because you had to be in a precise spot: I went to vacation and I remember I saw a videogames magazine with the complete walkthrough. I begged my mother to let me buy it so that I could know how to progress

ok the doom run is fun better than last year
wheel of time is really fast paced weirdly meant for speedrunning
|
They didn't upload the vods yet, right?
|
They could be, as always a reddit thread i guess.
Onimusha commentary was great, Shuriken has great Boss Fights.
|
That was really cute.
Ninja block hype!

German runner looks a bit like Al Bundy? >.>

Wow, this game looks so bad. At least he's not alone up there anymore.
|
If you enjoy half life speedruns. Make sure to catch jedi outcast on friday. Been watching covert practice in th rooms. Basically quake 3 w/ more air movement + force powers.
|
Right, jedi outcast has some fast movement speed with force powers. It was at GDQ in the past and really impressive, what you can do.
...ok, almost everything what hey do is impressive...so its not that much impressive. ya know what i mean. >.>

The Mr. Vile song in the BK run was absolutely amazing
