    It's a guy beating Super Mario Bros. In 12 minutes. I know that's not a world record, but it's the WAY he beats the game that's amazing.

    http://web.utk.edu/~jeppers1/ROCKMAN_avi_test.avi

    This is a guy beating the Cutman stage of the first Mega Man game without getting hit. AT ALL.

    http://web.utk.edu/~jeppers1/MarioKart-flowercup.mpeg

    This is funny. Someone beats one of the flower cup tracks in literally SECONDS.

    http://web.utk.edu/~jeppers1/Ikaruga-stage6.avi

    It's actually stage 5, but whatever. This one is the most impressive of all the videos posted here. He finished the entire level without getting hit. Absolutely amazing.

    By the way, YES the first video is real. These are from a Japanese line of videos called Famitsu, where people show off their video gaming talents. Famitsu would not publish any of this stuff if it were not legit. None of this is done using bots or hacks of any kind. It's hard to believe, but it's true.

    Really, wow. That SMB video... simply wow. "Master Super Mario Bros Exploiter" -title awarded.

    You need to get the Divx codec at their web page. If that turns out not to be it, upgrading your media player should do it.

    I really liked the MagaMan movie. I can remember that when it came out and how HARD it was in the beginning. You can tell this person played alot.

    The Mario Kart one was kind of cool too.

    You need the DiVX codec. Grab it here.

    That MegaMan bit was great. Not a scratch!

    [edit]Heh. Posted the same thing at the same time.[/edit]

    Take a look at the right top of the screen while super mario is being played. There may not have been any use of hacks or bots, like Virne said, but if you ask me, this video was speeded up. The time seems to pass very quickly. It has been a long time since I played Super Mario, but wasn't that time in seconds?

    No, not seconds. Something like ½ seconds -IIRC. Besides, the movement doesn't look like 'speeded up.'

    I once saw this clip from the Tetris world championships, absolutely amazing. I have yet to see the clips but I would not be surprised if these are legit. There are some freaky gamers out there. I dont know if I should be impressed by their skill or feel sad at all the time they have spent earning that skill.
