Just in case anyone wasn't aware, Futurama is not a good game. I don't know how Henneko stays so positive.

Yeah, but I've been at least vaguely aware of what he's been doing for a good year and a half at this point and he's just been subjecting himself to a neverending stream of dogshit. How does that not break a man?

I'm consistently impressed by speedrunners playing terrible games in frustrating ways for years on end and not ending up bitter.

Meanwhile I play good games in frustrating ways and end up resenting everyone and everything to do with it.

Takes all sorts to make a world, I guess but yeah Henneko's general spirit is pretty remarkable.

Too bad your run is in the middle of the night, but I'll be sure to watch the VOD and laugh at you cheer you on.

Guy sits and plays Final Fantasy XII for 7 hours straight.

Guy takes a break 16 minutes into Timesplitters 2.

Granted, I only started watching when it just happened, so I'll have to see the VOD on what actually went down.

e: Then apparently they censored him in the interview by showing the hall cam instead of interview cam. (but if I got it correct he said him leaving was a joke since it was an auto-scroller.)

It was a joke since otherwise he'd have sat there for 2 minutes doing nothing.

Also they showed the hall cam instead because they put the scene transistion through and then nothing happened, they weren't trying to censor him by just giving him audio in case he flashed the vape sign or something lmao.

Yeah, I know, I know. Someone said in the chat that they have GIVEN THE SIGNAL for screen transition but it just failed to change.

At least you had a good view on the whole thing. It was a very entertaining run, to be sure.

Tetris Grandmaster is always awesome despite I've seen it a couple of GDQ's already. I envy those who see this for the first time now.

What's up with the timer/run? I tabbed over to another stream after whichever was the Tetris game where he lost before 800. Then checking back a bit later the timer was at only 3 minutes. Next game was scheduled to start around now and according to the estimate we still have 45 minutes to go.

Metroid sighting huh? Well, I did just pour this coffee...it will still be there tomorrow.
So I've been watching this Phantasy Star II run for like 3 minutes, and they guy is just aimlessly selecting menus and then sitting there doing nothing.

Is this a trick or has the whole event gone mad?

There's still another 2 runs and set-up periods to delay your run even further, I bet you could get a 2 hour nap in.

With this run, and Phantasy Star before it, I think it's a good time for everyone to take a nap.

Nice meme where I decided to sleep early to wake up to host at 4AM after my hosting was pushed back from around 10PM and now it's actually at 6:30 AM.

Cooler meme where it took them 2 hours to set up a PAL SNES or something.

believe it or not it's not aimless and he wasn't doing nothing

he had to press down off the bottom of the screen something like 120 times, then do it again for some other huge number

i'm frankly surprised he was able to keep his cool after failing it once



oh and good luck Punchy
