Halo 3 by g3lk_jr in

[@studentloans2488]

This was one of the best runs of the event. Extremely talented runner of a very popular game, experienced and vocal couch and entertaining donation reader host makes this run another GDQ highpoint

[@trendkill3333]

i feel like halo games are always the highlight of GDQ, no other game seems to have the same vibe that halo speedruns have

[@literallyjustgrass]

halo on legendary is something else for marathon runs lol, it's always so exiting. Like so much can go wrong at so many points and then it's up to the runner to adapt to bad & unexpected situations. I'm 6 minutes into this run and it's already a clusterfuck

[@hteety]

@@trendkill3333there are always a few but halo is very consistent. I think TomatoAnus's FOA run has great vibes and commentary, amd from immediate memory, anything involving covert muffin, blood thunder, bryonato, amd chronos along with others I'm sore I just missed will always have solid vibes.

[@SamHaloruns]

It was a blast to show this game off! If you enjoyed it or have any questions about the run I try to stream it on twitch.tv/SamAtHR a few evenings a week

[@CarlTheBanan]

Love when runners are explaining as well as playing. Nice job dude!!!

[@Rengad3s]

Your run and commentary were excellent. Your brain was obviously going a million miles an hour during it and that energy was infectious. You killed it!

[@skeveharvey]

u r a legend

[@borisyeltsin6606]

This was an awesome run! Love the GPW too

[@LENKRAD]

I just recently played through the Halo games again. Insane that this is legendary difficulty! Great job! This was amazing.

[@CheapeOne]

This run was so fun to watch as a huge casual fan of halo 3. The Fight: Finished

[@miqotelover]

1:01:58 Bless this runners heart, he was talking about missions, bringing over missions, but dang if that doesn't show his sheer will and dedication to his run.

[@Chrysus.]

Had no idea guns in Halo 3 had a scariness factor.

[@justenbeashel]

I think it was sarcasm

[@condsy]

@@justenbeashel nah they genuinely do have it

[@GarrettBlackmon]

scary-ness values, wow. This is my favorite game of all time and I've played it casually since release in 2007. I learned something new, Awesome run!

[@trendkill3333]

same hahah, never knew about that

[@lilpullout]

pretty sure they made that up

[@banned-user]

@@lilpullout it is a real thing programmed in

[@mc-not_escher]

That feeling when a FPS gets transformed into a platformer.

[@rainbowGZUS7]

Halo 3 is for sure a platforming fps! It's fun af using that movement in multi-player, some it's insanely hard to do

[@MattMathisSoftwareGuy]

Thanks to everyone involved with this run. Box-jumped its way right into my heart!

[@sactownsacrament9416]

Great run with great commentary! I was too young to really grasp the plot of the series. The mix of lore tidbits atop the strats was ace :)

[@Zmargo702]

One of the best runs ever on GDQ imo. Just entertaining throughout from every person involved. I love this run a lot.

[@kruksog]

This was great. Run was fantastic, runner was charismatic, couch was enthusiastic and funny. This is a pretty ideal gdq video.

[@spakjoeXD]

Man I remember clearing all of those rooms slowly on legendary as a kid (on console of course). Great run my guy :)

[@204Adventures]

U just gotta love halo I’m 23 now and still watching speeds runs for halo much love this game turned me into the gamer I am today thanks

[@Freelix2000]

I've never been a huge fan of speedruns but I love watching these GDQ runs. I love watching talented runners demonstrate incredible skill but in this more laid back setting where they still can sacrifice some time and focus to talk about the game and their speedrunning tricks and even goof off a little.

[@Friggazee]

Some great games this year.

[@FIDEL_CASHFLOW_]

Idk if this is something new but I absolutely love the commentators. I like how they also explain stuff for the people that have not played Halo.

[@weihnachtsmann7699]

Great run of one of my favorite games of all time!!!

[@nathanitet]

I've never played Halo 3 but this was such a well done run! Great runner, great couch, great host!

[@TheReubenthegreat]

I finished Halo 3 for the first time last night, and it's so cool to have a deeper appreciation for runs like this now

[@Bryonato]

This run was epic swag

[@Penjolin]

Amazing run! Cool tricks and I chuckled at "the floor is Cortana moment"

[@Dinosaurd123]

Bryonato!!! That man is a legend!

[@icyargonaut7154]

Run starts at 0:49 [Note] 34:09 is “where it actually begins” favorite speed run saying

[@matthew-epurnell1610]

THANK YOU! -- Greetings from NYC

[@thenewstyle8704]

Love the crowd being back!

[@Paulunatr]

This is basically just Master Chief in the books. Great run, great cause! Thanks GDQ!

[@cptobvius]

In terms of difficulty of the run and opportunities for things to go wrong, this must be one of the better GDQ runs, no?

[@TheFantasticCrap]

This run is nuts!

[@atch4764]

this was fun. good job gelk

[@borisyeltsin6606]

40:34 "This is some Master Chief in-the-books level stuff right here" Deep cut 😂

[@PrivateAccoun]

This is the best couch commentary I’ve seen.

[@204Adventures]

19:37 that donation tho😂😂😂😂😂

[@204Adventures]

As a kid we always tried grande bouncing that bridge but damnnnn big brain use the gravity lift 21:37

[@four-en-tee]

While the "auto-scroll" sections don't allow for time saves, they at least make for an interesting display of combat skill. I might have to pick up Halo 3 speedrunning, its easily one of my favorite games of all time.

[@hteety]

I think it's why I like legendary rings so much. A mix of highly practiced tricks amd legitametly difficult combat makes them very impressive.

[@Freedwind]

What a great run nice job G3lk!

[@jakeylee.mp4]

11:53 was so CLEAN. This is something Chief would actually do

[@SeniorCharry]

A speed run of my favorite game? Yes please.

[@theneedlessmage6826]

59:47 "Q: How are you so good at that? A: I practice a lot." Classic 😂 Great run of one of my favourite games of all time. Informative and entertaining!

[@generichuman6220]

It's crazy how well put together halo is. Like, I could write an essay on this shit.

[@spyfoxguy]

33:40 Can't you disable the Moas? Is that not standard for the category?

[@dba1222]

Its really interesting when you said about the covenant being one of the most iconic halo levels. When I think about them, Covenant wouldn't even come to mind. What does is all the missions from halo 1 AOTCR, TSC (as it was with the demo), Halo, library and maybe The Maw. Halo 2 doesn't even compute (maybe the arbiter first level, the level after the crashed pelican on earth, maybe gravemind) and halo 3 probably just the opening mission (or the base mission / tsavo highway). Then it would be the last level on reach. But most of them really for me are just from the first game. Weird how that works (for me)

[@daemon669]

Fantastic run! Loved the skips too

[@xoshaow3]

Great run! Fantastic comms the whole time. Wish I could sit there and play halo 3 one day

[@wowisntitanamazinglyamazin9550]

At the Cortana cutscene around 26:18, couldn't you use a rocket to propel yourself at that point to offset the slow?

[@potatoestakels2012]

i remember my halo lasso run using some of these strats was so nice

[@1994bmm]

Love halo 3!

[@Jack-ni4ft]

That run was amazing, great coach too.

[@trendkill3333]

it’s funny how every time he almost dies you can hear nervy make a funny noise

[@imabrickfromspain]

Awesome job!

[@silentsmokeNIN]

Honestly one of the best gdq runs ever

[@343Films]

Halo 3 is absolutely one of the greatest speed games

[@1990themule]

Finally a speed run on the highest difficulty

[@zestyleek]

great run great commentary great couch great donations great carryover of missions from mission to mission 10/10 would arbiter again

[@BendermanGSX]

7 minutes in and this is a fun run!!

Awesome run! Great commentary

[@gilliamm.5732]

Great run!

[@imgladiquitdestiny2401]

Just got my very own Xbox for the first time since my dad had one when we were kids. And I thought I knew about Halo 😂 this sht would have helped a LOT I’ll admit tho, I’ve completed halo 2 legendary solo flawless which was soul crushing. And I’m close to finishing halo 3 the same.

[@Vict0rRezn0v]

This my favourite missions besides the last one❤❤❤❤❤

[@lew-e]

In college we loved the multiplayer of halo 3, it came out my freshman year, but we really had fun doing the campaign and trying the stupidest shit imaginable. It was so much fun!

[@matthewrusso4875]

That guy was super skilled. Wow

[@norab42]

I was shocked when I heard this guy was from Foco. I live pretty close to there.

[@No_True_Scotsman]

I love Halo 3 and I have never heard about scaryness.

[@SuperMClone]

Always great to see Halo at GDQ

[@enzo91821]

46:55 I'm just now finding out you're supposed to 1v1 the Chieftain, I always shot everyone as soon as I see them

[@smuffinman]

Wait..I didn't know the brute shot made grunts flee. I guess I never noticed

[@Rayder2341]

this is master chief in the books

[@EngineNo9x]

I’m so sad I’m just now finding out the live streamed speed runs

I love it but sadly it's gonna get alot of us copyright when we stream the game😮

[@mattchooblink]

1:10:40 that quote is from red vs blue. Sarge says it. Not from a halo game.

[@equious8413]

The sensitivity of this guy's mouse is so low, they gunna check it's blood circulation, bruh.

[@SamHaloruns]

800 DPI and 1.2 in game sens :) pretty standard for tac shooters like Valorant. Also forgot to mention that moments lower your sens too. Some people swap dpis on their mouse during moments, but I just go through raw lol

[@3693G]

Nice

I love Johnson. Lol
