Speedrun: Oblivion beaten in 11 minutes

How in the ... oh, right. I knew The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion was a glitchy game, but hot damn, this is insane. Almost every speedrun out there involves some sort of exploit in order to shave...

Waiting for Santa? Watch Half-Life in 30 instead

Santa's dead. HAHAHAH, pwned. OK, now that that's out of the way I got some questions for you. Are you lonely tonight? Do you find yourself with nothing to do? Are you as much of a lose...

Oh Em Gee! Michael Moonwalk Speedrun!

I can't think of any other speedrun that's partially done in reverse. This Sega Genesis "Michael Jackson's Moonwalker" game from 1990 is beaten in just under 24 minutes. Just as it grows boring...

Destructoid E3 Speedrun!!!!

Dodging reporters, booth babes, and kiosk obstacles I was able to cover the entire South Hall in a little over five minutes. There are some cool things there, but primarily stuff you've already...
Amazing Speedrun in... Super Turrican?!!

You know, I don't necessarily believe that "everybody is different". I've dated enough women from Miami to know this for a fact. What is more true is that some people are weirder than others, ...
