@@thebeegfoot loved Shrek 2 on the PS2 as well. Was probably the best Shrek game out there even though my sister and I played tons of Shrek Super Party too, but that one definitely had some jank to it.

Speed running is about finding exploits and taking shortcuts the developers never intended. So the worse the game the is, the more opportunities there are to break it open in every way imaginable due to shoddy programming, aka a speedrunners paradise.
