SDA was updated again yesterday. They finally made the official releases for the Quake Done Quickest runs, including the demo packs that you can play with Quake's -game command. There is also a single-segment run of Pokemon blue in 2 hours, 4 minutes, as well as two SM64 runs that are already out of date.

All I'm really wanting to see is how quick that game can be 100%'d but the only run on SDA is from 2006 (or '09, can't remember off the top of my head).

If you happen to have 6 and a half hours available, a single segment 100% run was made less than a year ago:

AndrewG has a new WR for Super Mario Bros. It's .22 seconds faster than his older run. I'm pretty sure it's the only game where those fractions of seconds matter, because sub-4:58 is likely impossible.

If you want to see a catalog of FF5 fuckery (sans sequence breaks), there's a low-level GBA FF5 run on lparchive that goes into detail about how all of its game-breaking stuff works. There's also a more traditional LP of the GBA version which might be worth reading first, if you've never played FF5 yourself.

It's probably my favorite FF game, just for the sheer amount of ways you can bend it over your knee, both ways intended by the developers and ways which obviously weren't.

Another one of the Playstation version just started. Also, one of the very first Let's Play threads was for the SNES fan translation. That one includes a few things like beating Gogo with brute force and Omega with an all-bard party.

Is the actual game flickering that much or is it just the stream? It's almost unbearable to watch at times.
