Hikaru Plays LEVY!!

I saw that Gotham City (Link in the comments) put up this game yesterday and had the genius idea to upload the game here and provide y'all with a Livesync link so you can watch them together, but it doesn't really work with the edits that were made to Levy's video. So instead i just thought i'd just upload it and copy his title and thumbnail for the giggles. :)
And checkout his channel.
