The drunk run Cosmo did of CV64 at Chicagothon was hilarious though. And pretty hype to boot.

Only if the raid message includes BEEP BOP. I'd be fine if one of the streambots ends up being the Hulk or the Minotaur.

New speedrun FF7 WR- 2:14:53 by Kynos. Here is his stream- http://www.twitch.tv/xerokynos and the google doc for this amazingly broken run is here- https://docs.google.com/document/d/1yL_ZKDOT7gXQEOaLLR7LY6-sSapQp-77-i_myLIp2VI. Even for a reasonably experienced FF speedrun viewer, a lot of the glitches were new to me.

For the sake of performing it live I asked him things, so I can say it's very safe but there's still some random chance involved with encounters, at worst 2-3 minutes will be lost. And then he went and got that time. Wow.

It sounds like a good run that fits beautifully the criteria for a good marathon showing: beloved popular game being torn to pieces. Also, Aeris is alive.

Does anyone do SMB "walkathon" (beating the game without using the B button) runs? I saw the TAS for that yesterday and it seems like it'd be awfully masochistic - there are 3 pixel-perfect jumps you have to do in world 8 and you die if you miss any of them, and then 4-3 is just dumb and requires a bunch of crazy glitches to be done right in a row so a real-time runner would probably have to do a warps run - but I bet that would be entertaining to see/try.

There's an FF6 LP/playaround that involves getting General Leo in the party without any sort of gamesharking or whatever, mostly through exploiting this enormous, game-destroying glitch. The problem, though, is that to make the glitch work you have to play half the game and die at a very particular point and go all the way back to where you last saved near the start, so while it would be fantastic to show at a marathon it's just not feasible to demonstrate in realtime.

Almolicious seems to have thought up a new skip in Paper Mario TTYD and successfully tested it: http://ask.fm/Almolicious/answer/108837044089 He appears to be working on routing based on this new discovery on his stream: http://www.twitch.tv/almolicious

There's been worse poo poo with longer runtimes put into marathons so I'd reckon that's an acceptable risk. I'm just interested at the prospect of a Final Fantasy marathon run that doesn't take all day, so I'm all for it.

It actually was very interesting all the way though, I mean the only reason that it takes that long is midgar, which you can't skip much, but by the time you are past there you completely skip the Kalm flashback and there is a lot of great little glitches. My favourite one is how he levels cloud, he kills ultima weapon by throwing a potion on it to make it run, which overflows his HP to 100 and then he kills it with one grenade.

Samael posted:New speedrun FF7 WR- 2:14:53 by Kynos. This is really awesome. I started up learning FFVII a little over a year ago and fizzled out after learning about 2/3 of disc one. I started with PC which was fast of course, then got a little demoralized once I moved to my ps2 fat and lost some time and had to change control scheme (analog stick -> pad). I was further demoralized once I realized the significant difference between ps2 fat fast disc and ps2 slim fast disc. Didn't really want to get another ps2 to be competitive and compare times. Looks like now's the time to get back into learning it. Especially since I know the entire Escape part already. Hopefully this won't impact my work on Shatterhand too much. pigz fucked around with this message at 19:20 on Feb 11, 2014 |

It must be noted that these glitches only work on the JP PC version (iirc). I don't know exact versions, I guess you would have to ask Kynos himself.
