You\'ll never be this good at games
 
Here's a pretty good list of amazing gaming feats with video footage.

SFII one gave me chills . . .

Nice post.

Was watching that Mario run the other day, really good stuff

SF & Ikaruga = holy sh*t

That SF3 one is a LOT harder than it looks. Each of those blocks requires exact timing.

I once beat expert minesweeper in 1:02.

Good link, but kinda weak that they include a video of somebody 99%'ing freebird when there are videos online of HellsAshes -9'ing Jordan.

The end of the tetris video is ridiculous and excessive.

The Puyo Puyo one is a little weak, since his opponent is clearly not trying. It still takes a lot of planning, but isn't as impressive as a number of the other videos.

The Guitar Hero one isn't as good as the rest of those videos either, for obvious reasons.

The Ikaruga one is awesome.

I loved how the crowd freaked out during the SF one. Also the Mario run was impressive...the guy was spot on every move/jump. And yes that Tetris was just insane.

The Mario run has to be tool assisted. I wouldn't trust most videos without the split screen showing the actual players (like they have in the Street Fighter vid).

It has been a long long time since I played SF, but couldn't chun li have ended it when she jumped over ken, ie with a 'backwards' kick? You can jump over a dude and then change direction (in the air) and kick in SF right? Obv you can in MK and maybe that is screwing my mem. Maybe the dude would have blocked it, though if he did it when ken was punching it would be GO... Also, can't chun li throw fireballs?

Five minute Mario shouldn't be that hard, back when I was in college there was a whole bunch of us who spent a week trying to finish Mario on an original Nintendo, no emulation, and we could get it down to I believe somewhere around 5 and a half minutes. I wouldn't doubt that if you spent even more time on it that you could carve another 15 seconds or so off of that time, it's really much easier than it looks.

SF3 vid is one of my favs ever. Guitar Hero video is weak

You can cross someone up but the animation doesnt turn iirc. Regardless you have to kick deep to cross someone up and chun li couldnt do that.

Those are way easier to parry. Chun's super at the end should have by all means locked up the win.

Thx. I played a ton of SF2, but only a few games of SF3. Still, I find it hard to believe that I can't find a flaw in the gameplay of these world class players. Couldn't chun li have launched a slow fireball from long range then attacked right as it was hitting or something [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Chun Li was trying to guarantee the win as even a block from Ken would have meant a KO. The reason why Chun Li takes so long at the end to execute the move is because she is waiting for the right time to strike. The only thing Ken COULD do to survive was parry, and he pulled it off beautifully

The fireball part of my first post was a joke (in that I could see an 'easy win' option missed by a top notch player), though I was genuinely curious about the 'backwards kick'. Second post was all joke [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Like I said, I am out of my element completely with SF3 and understand that the chun li combo was a smart percentage play.

edit: my communication skills are poor tonight, hence multiple ninja edits and now this one, heh. Of course my humor is as strong as ever

Minesweeper video is amazing, but Tetris video just blows my mind. How have the Japanese not taken over the world yet?

LeapFrog,

mah bad. I was a bit of a SF3 nerd in college. Might have even been able to compete a bit but that died out.

also notable that the Chun player in the SF3 vid and the Cyclops player are the same dude.

the sf vid was freakin boss..
those jap players must be on speed or something, their skills are inhuman.

it's a quake 3 trickjumping vid by one of the best trickjumpers. most of the stuff he does is ridiculously difficult, i've played quake 3 for a couple of years and i can't even finish some of the levels in the video let alone as fast and effortless as he does.

some really crazy videos, except GH which was relatively weak

This was a pretty entertaining run through of the original Mega Man.

I watched it all anyways, pretty good, but seems like the bosses died in 3-4 hits.. kinda gay imo.

And that makes it easier to program for. That mario run through looked like forward was held almost the entire time with specifically timed jumps. It's unbelievable how lucky that mario run through was.

WTF, did that guy just play tetris without seeing the blocks after they land?

It was pretty sick even without that part imo

Ye the Tetris video is insane before the ending, and then it gets to the ending, and then its just ridiculous and made me fear Japanese people.
