Awesome Games Done Quick 2016 just ended yesterday after a week-long stretch, bringing in over $1.2 million dollars to support the Preventing Cancer Foundation. Runners played everything from the popular Super Metroid to Grand Theft Auto III, with multiple types of runs on display, like blindfolded sessions and even side-by-side races.

It was a pretty great event all around, and I had the good fortune of actually attending this year and watching some runs in person (a few of my favorites are below). Next stop: the summer event in roughly July!
