I am pre-emptively calling Ocarina of Time the worst run of the marathon. I was looking for other runs over two hours to complain about and for some weird reason they're all Mario or Zelda games where people are playing them in a way that takes way too much time. Even the obligatory Final Fantasy run is faster than those runs.

I don't even like Silent Hill and I'm tempted by the "So it was all your work!" design. I'm definitely getting the Bubsy shirt, though.

It's also where the various I found it amusing how many people reacted to them because we found those faces hilarious back when M&M6 was new... Also, bought my bobcat shirt because everyone must know that was I was dumb enough to buy and play Bubsy.

Soup du Jour posted:So none of the runs day 1 are really grabbing me, anyone have one they want to sell me on? For some reason I've generally found the day 1 runs to not be very interesting. F-Zero GX is the only racing game worth speedrunning, though. I think Blaster Master Zero might be interesting. If you like watching Batman teleport through walls everywhere then Arkham Asylum can be a fun run. I notice that there's already been some schedule slide. They've gotten started early with that.

jimmydalad posted:I feel like hearing half of these previews are making me hyped and also just "How the gently caress does that even work?" I'm looking at you, Punch Out and Super Punch Out at the same time on 1 controller. I think Super Punch Out is slightly faster so he should finish it before having to fight Tyson, but that run is going to be insane.

Huh. The Infamous games are always dull as dirt but I thought the speedrun might at least have something of interest. I guess not.

Brother Entropy posted:so continuity literally changes in order to gently caress you over no matter what you pick? It's called a magician's choice and it's been around forever. It is pretty lazy in video game narratives, though, since if you want a narrative outcome then just force it instead of jerking the player around.

Your Computer posted:really? I thought there were two Okay, there was the lovely first one that they gave way for free after leaking everyone's security data. Then there was a lovely second game that I don't know anything about because why would you play a second one. Then there was one about vampires but that might have been a DLC but either way it was run at a GDQ. And then there was the PS4 one near launch that when they announced at an E3 everyone went, "Why?" which I think is this one but I obviously really do not give two shits about this series.

(I saw another at a different GDQ event, though I can't really remember anything from that one either)
