Awesome Games Done Quick 2017
I'm a few days late, as it started Sunday, but…here, editing to this year's links:
Re: Awesome Games Done Quick 2017
Haven't watched a ton but The Addams Family was good.
Nothing else really stood out.

Always a fan of garbage games played semi-seriously, the Rocky and Bullwinkle speedrun was great with that one guy's laugh. Enjoyed some of the jabs in the interview after.
Re: Awesome Games Done Quick 2017
AwfulGDQ (Batman Forever - Fortified Zone) was fun, as usual. Several records in that block, too.
The day 1 races (Shovel Knight, Megaman, Mario Kart) were great in terms of being close, suspense.
Final Fantasy's back half (I didn't catch the front) is definitely a good watch if you know Final Fantasy.
I enjoy watching just about all of it, though; the commentary is pretty uniformly engaging whether I know the game or not.

Were there any new spectacular glitches or arbitrary code execution this year, as we've seen previously, above all in the Super Mario World and Pokémon categories?

TAS block isn't until Saturday; we're not quite there yet.
There have been some new tricks that were discovered [in the last week, last few days] in various runs, but nothing ACE-level that I've seen.

I just remembered that Ralph 4 was played on the AGDQ channel few months ago as part of their blind race tournament:

The commentary was pretty rad so check it out.

I especially liked the reveal that all 3 ACE'ed consoles was streaming not only the video via SNES but also the audio via the 2 previous NES'es. I would like one day read what custom video format it was.Myask wrote:TAS block great as usual.

Asking Dwangoac over at TASvideos would probably be the best way to find out.
In the vein of TASblock AGDQ2017, there's this TAS.
(AGDQ2017 is, of course, over by now.)
