Stop me if you’ve heard this before, but what if you take bigfooted anime protagonists and threw them into old Disney cartoons? What? You say we did that last week? Well not to fear because this week we get to watch Ventus… do whatever speedrunners do in Kingdom Hearts games. Blow up trees and cats? Probably that. ------------------- Watch kirbysora’s run along with us: https://www.speedrun.com/khbbsfmhd/runs/y8g282dz Head here for a version of the run without game audio: https://www.patreon.com...

Let's see, I know heartless, a lot of X names, norting, maybe something about Goofy, but Hobz knows way more than I do about Kingdom Hearts. For the next few episodes, we're going to take a look at the fastest game in the series that's not just a cutscene: Birth by Sleep.

What’s up smooth skin, I’m the sherif in this here puddle. It looks like you broke your leg when you shot your rocket launcher straight into the ground. Nothing a nuka cola and a quick rest couldn’t fix. Why don’t you rest a spell and listen to the new episode of Need For Speedrunning. They dig into the Bethesda mess that is Fallout 3, a run I find very entertaining. Speaking of running, you shouldn’t put too much weight on your leg, even though it does seem like you are running faster. You can ...

We picked a cozy little speedrun to say “goodbye for now” to our friends Rubie and Brad. The runner SkateKing was even nice enough to put on some Celeste music for us, as we make all the wrong choices on the way to a WR.

Well hello! Fancy meeting you here, clinging to the back hair s of an ancient giant guardian. Don't mind me, I've just nestled into this beast to listen to my favorite podcast talk about Rubie's favorite game. They're even teaching me how to stab 1.9 times! That's sure to come in handy once I muster up the courage to move from this spot. In fact, if you're also here to slay this thing, that works for me too.

Hey everyone! While I think of a bed joke, come on in and sit down. The episode, we have Brian from the Zelda Podcast Chat of the Wild to walk us through the already broken speedrun of Echoes of Wisdom. Part Zelda game, part tower builder, a dash of Link, and some menu manipulation combine to make this one of the fastest any% runs in the series. So get comfy, maybe on a bed? There, I did it. Bed referenced, and that's two possibly bad bucks for me. ------------------- Watch Nitroz' world record ...

Disillusioned knight Bowen (Dennis Quaid) befriends Draco (Sean Connery), the last of the dragons, and the two begin scamming village folk as Bowen repeatedly "kills" Draco for money. Bowen soon learns that Draco is… ok you got me. Dayoman went through the cutscenes so fast that we’re not sure what exactly happened.
