Ape Escape was good, the runner was pretty nervous at the start but his commentary got better.

Yeah I never felt like I was confused by what was going on during it even though I've only seen Ape Escape through MGS3 and these events.

The run's fine. It's got some lulls in it. I really liked the infinite jump glitch because going out of bounds always looks great. The commentary is awkward and subdued, but informative! :thumbsup:

Well yeah that's kinda what I meant, at the time of posting it was the minecart sequence which... just watch the end of temple of doom instead

What was the music being played in the current break? Not the one playing during the donations, but the one right before that.

All the "America!" donations are just making me wonder why Metal Wolf Chaos isn't being run this year, and today in particular.

What music is playing right now? I dont' see the thing.
I wanna say it's either something from Metal Gear or Life Force? Something NES era Konami-ish.

ed: not the one that's playing now-now, the one that just ended.

I was about to say that it should be run for every GDQ, but that would really ruin the fun of it once overplayed.

But c'mon it's Independence Day, this is inexcusable.

Yeah, I'm trying to figure out one of the early NES ones. It was probably about 5-6 minutes ago.

The game itself? It wasn't groundbreaking or anything, but it got pretty good reviews on release. I think it was one of the best of the PS1 3D platformers that didn't have Crash or Spyro in the title, and the PS1 had a LOT of 3D platformers.

FUCK THE ISLE OF APPLES. FUCK THEM IN THEIR STUPID ASSES.
I have an odd question. How do I go about donating prizes for the next GDQ? Would board games or tabletop RPGs be appropriate for prizes?

The audio cable we were using broke literally between runs. It was only giving one audio channel. Swapped cable, problem immediately went away. :supaburn:

Spyro is a good example of why platformers have some of the most fun runs. Out of bounds is the name of the game and glitches abound :allears:
