    Summer Games Done Quick starting on Sunday the 2nd of July.

    Wasn't sure if I should have bumped the other thread or made a few one, mods can let me know if I made a mistake
    .
    Looking forward to ActRaiser and E.V.O.: Search for Eden (loved those games), Earthbound finale will be great (no crying til the end).

    Too soon for a Breath of the Wild run? Or I suppose they still need to figure out a type of run to do

    I think they sort runs well in advance so hopefully for the winter one :)
    Maybe they're waiting to shorten it down, I thought they'd do a glitched run tbh

    A reminder that this is starting today. I'm pretty much stopping everything to watch it.

    The ones you don't expect to be good are usually mind blowing. Saying that Tetris is always insane.

    When do they put up replays on YouTube?
    My days are too long to be able to watch live :(


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,396 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Usually start appearing the next day.

    I know the feeling, I was travelling for most of the last summer one. You can just follow the YouTube channel or check the past broadcast on Twitch

    Nier is on. I'm playing D&D but I haven't played it yet so not missing much at least

    Not familiar with battle kid. Looks like a handy enough megaman clone

    It's great. Not an official NES game, it was released a few years ago, but it's as good as any commercial NES game made. It's really difficult but checkpoints are well spaced so it's never annoying. There's also an equally good sequel.

    Donation there from Ireland :)

    Diddy Kong Racing now. Game is utterly broken so should be great fun :)

    I remember this game being much easier on the eye.
    13 seconds lap time! Wtf

    N64 games and especially Rare ones have not aged well!

    What's with all the people in the chat saying "reset"?

    when you speed run generally any mistake means you reset the game

    Does that ever happen at these live events when everyone has a time slot? I've never watched before so I've got a few real noob questions :D

    Only if they miss something major early on. A lot of them will bring back up saves if they miss major time saves that gave dire consequences if missed. It's rare they can't finish but it dies happen.

    Guy playing Lion King is choking hard :D

    Yesss Super Monkey Ball.


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,396 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Monkey ball just started. This run is always amazing.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Yesss Super Monkey Ball.
    Always a favourite run to watch.
    Sonic CD, Generations and Colours on later


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    This commentary my god


  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,396 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    The first cringe moment. Awesome!

    He was annoying but I think he was genuinely enjoying it so I can't hate on him.

  • Moderators, Category Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 52,396 CMod ✭✭✭✭Retr0gamer


    Some over enthusiastic commentary. It was actually kind of fun seriously they were taking it and it was a great run to watch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Sonic CD has such fantastic music, I wish I had played it more. Flying Fox did a great job


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Green Hill Zone blindfolded met!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Sonic Generations crashed :D

    Absolutely lousy about the game crash, I hope he can fix it

    He's using a light enough hat, not really sure he is 100% blind tbh

    It's an easy enough game to play blindfolded, it's a straight line and you just need to memorise the sounds.

    Do it then, and post it here.

    Much harder games have been done blindfolded. Calm down demand proof. Yer man playing guagemole or whatever it's spelt really pointed out speed runner mentality.... "People ask me how to beat this fight....I don't know I haven't done it in 2 years I actually know very little about the game "

    I saw someone do Ocarina of time blindfolded. If they can do that they can certainly do one level of a modern sonic game which nearly plays itself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,019 ✭✭✭Touch Fuzzy Get Dizzy


    Punch Out blind is definitely my favourite one followed by OOT child dungeons.

    Tony Hawks 2 on now. These runs always amaze me

    You'd want to be a special kind of sad/lonely to spam a Twitch chat with Emojis
