Episode description
Why is speedrunning a phenomenon in gaming that holds such high regard? Is there a difference between skill-based completing a game as quickly as possible or finding glitches to exploit to 'unnaturally' cut the length of a game down? What is the attraction of setting artificial limitations on oneself when playing a game?
It is these questions and more that Zach and Brendan attempt to dive into on this episode of Blowing Cartridges.
