What are y'all most looking forward to seeing? I spend way too much time watching these marathons. Mega man block this evening. I enjoy Castlevania runs as well. I'm also interested in the Dark Souls run.

Games done quick. Speedrunners that raise alot of money for charity(doctors without borders/prevent cancer)

Games Done Quick it's a speed running week long marathon they do twice a year on twitch. They usually raise $1M+ by the end of the week.

games done quick. Charity stream of speedruns and whatnot for donations.
Sometimes it's OK to watch; most times it's painful because there's always some yokel constantly reading off donations with shitty messages.

Sometimes I do, too, but I'm still salty from one I tried to watch Monday (I think). Man that was brutal

I've never missed one. I speedrun Sonic Adventure 2 so I had a little extra reason to watch AGDQ this past winter. I really enjoyed the sonic block. Seeing Sonic Generations and Sonic Color speedrun was pretty cool. I always like the Super Monkey Ball stuff too.

I haven't actually ever looked at the schedule, but when I'm home, I have it on in the background. It gets some pretty amazing viewer numbers on twitch (saw 160,000 on last night)

Tried to watch it this weekend, man that is boring as frick.
It might have been the game they were playing or the people playing them, but it was not fun to watch.
I've never been into speedruns and I guess I never will be.
That being said, I love the fact of that they are raising money for those charities and I'm astounded by how much they raise.

First one I've been checking out and it's pretty awesome. Been watching it while I'm at the gym, Mirror's Edge, Half Life and Castlevsnia SOTN have been my favorites so far.

I've never watched any other speedruns aside from this one guy who I like who speedruns Pokemon.
When he gets a good run going which is super dependent on some things happening really early on it's exciting as hell to watch. Can only assume it's the same w/ most games.

Yup, that's him.
Kind of forgot that he lives in Louisiana

This Mega Man X2 4-Player run is pretty cool, always sucked at Mega Man when I was a kid.

Yea I don't see the enjoyment in it personally. I understand finishing these games as fast as possible, but these are the games I want to be immersive in
