re7 was great and the re3 race was fun
The awful block combo of superman 64/arabian nights/Enviro-Bear 2000/Dog's Life was something out of the ordinary
jedi academy was fun and impressive

Personally I thought the I Wanna Be The Marathon run was one of the best, but it doesn't seem like most people liked it.

Resident Evil 7 is one of the best runs of the entire marathon

NOT ENOUGH RED ORBS ARGH
Lots of excellent recommendations in this thread. Just want to leave one for Yooka-Laylee. It was a mess live because it dropped so many frames that half of the run was unwatchable. The Youtube VOD, however, is totally fine. A fast run that breaks the game (a lot) and has a ton of energy in the commentary.

A couple of recommendations that aren't on the list yet:

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard - Carcinogen is pretty entertaining and has been doing Resident Evil runs forever, and there are some great moments
Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! + Super Punch-Out!! - It's a guy speedrunning 2 games at the same time

Echoing RE7 and MTPO+SPO.

I thought Ratchet and Clank was fun live, but haven't rewatched it to see if it was just opening day hype that boosted it in my mind.

halfcoordinated's runs of Armed with Wings: Rearmed and TAIKER are good, fun, short (12 and 20 minutes, respectively), and by a goon. He also gives a motivational speech at the end of TAIKER.

Shame SGDQ doesn't have a proper Awful Game Block, as this year had a lot of gems. Did that picture I linked from the other thread ever get a better quality version, as it was posted during the long rear end Breath of the Wild run.

I'm amazed and at least a little proud RE7 gets brought up as one of the marathon bests in a marathon that had Arabian Nights.

Like while we're all throwing recommendations. That's mine. Arabian Nights is very definitely my pick for Run Of The Show.

I know at least one year they had "Silly Games Done Quick" was supposed to be in the same vein. Dunno if it was a one off or not.

You were great on the couch in RE7, and I don't even typically like horror games! I still haven't seen your run yet, it's on my to-watch list.

Speaking of which, does anyone know any kind of app or website or something where you can list runs/videos you want to watch? I have so many and it's hard to keep track of.

RE7 and double Punch-Out added to the recommendations. I think that's going to be final.

As for best run of the marathon, I'm going to have to toss my vote in for the Ori race because that was sick.

Deciding to finally make a stand against disorganization with the spergiest hill to die on, I use a google docs spreadsheet called "poo poo to watch." It has links to IMDB, sa threads, adtrwiki, notes, etc a "progress" column for episodic series and conditional formatting for completion status :techno:
