The REAL Goobusters posted:Yeah the people who thought that was boring clearly have never played trials evolution before. That was amazing. It wasn't boring, but them keeping repeating just how hard the tracks are got annoying. I'm sure people got the message after the first couple times. (yes I've done the extremes in evolution and fusion, and yes the run was impressive and the runner is way way better than me)

They play foreign language versions for different reasons usually it's either because there's less text/it scrolls faster (saving time especially in games where you have to click through a bunch of text) or because it has bugs they exploit that were fixed in the US version or whatever

It's people playing decade+ old games to figure out how to squeeze a few frames from them. That doesn't keep it from being absolutely amazing, clearly. Also, this is, without a doubt, the chillest run.

I swear the people in the room were going to rebel against some of the early applauses the couch started. I think he won everyone over at the end, though. I just took it as the price I had to pay for enjoying Fire Emblem and for probably enjoying Kingdom Hearts and FF7 in the future.

Bomberman 64 should be cool, its a relic of an era when devs were adapting to 3d from 2d series and just put in whatever the gently caress.

Finally the best 3D platformer is being played. I know it's the best one because it's the one I played when I was a kid. This guy's real monotone though. Kanfy fucked around with this message at 14:30 on Jan 9, 2015 |

Supercharging in this game is really hard to control and anything that requires doing it with precision is a real pain in the rear end. Incidentally Tree Tops is almost nothing but supercharging over massive pits.  Haruharuharuko posted:This is super impressive but man I can't think of a game type Id hate to master more than the collect a thon platformer. Spyro is probably the best choice for that since you can always glide and go fast and you collect most things just by moving near them.

Well you could just run any% on these games, Spyro 1 still is a colect-a-thon that was, but Spyro 2 is like 20 minutes tops Spyro 3 I dunno if anyone runs it, I know they are working on a 100% TAS, but that's it.I mean compare this with something like Banjo-Kazooie, how fast the basic movement is without constant rolling or whatever, how much better this is to watch even if it is "collect a milion things".

Someone make this guy inhale a helium balloon, that'll spice up the voice while keeping the commentary good.
