Halo 2 by Zoo in

[@ZippyZapBike]

While this run is 7min 27 sec off Zoo's world record, the time of 1:23:20 would still place him today as the 9th fastest player in the world.

[@cb8721]

Its sub 1:20 as loading screen & PGC does not count

[@kaiboshvanhortonsnort359]

... in case anyone didn't believe the couch as to how difficult a lot of the tricks/methods are.

[@lmdoinraysmom]

Its also not technically a 1:23. Cause the timer that gdq isn’t completely right. For instance it start after he restarts the mission in beginning

[@MMRFlierMan]

Where are you finding that? I can only find the haloruns records which are xbox/xbox 360 only. This is a pc run, which even speedrun doesn't list.

[@Chuck4230]

1:23:37 Johnson is an immovable object. The ultimate chad.

[@lvparm]

I can attest to the difficulty of this game. When I was a wee lad, my best friend invited me over just to be able to beat the campaign on Legendary(we stood no chance soloing it). Good old days.

[@Elonthrust]

So glad to see Halo speed runs in GDQ!

[@Gam3rnathan]

Hell of a run

[@camwyn256]

Legendary

[@measlyfurball37]

I know this sounds ridiculous, but I've never seen a speedrun of Halo LOOK this fast. Few deaths, few hangups- for a marathon setting this is insane.

[@daveyjones7391]

Yeah, for a live RTA in front of so many, it’s very impressive.

[@Determ1nat1on]

That end with Johnson face off against Tartarus was a thing of beauty XD

[@Simte]

Absolutely great! I used to run og H2 on Xbox by far the hardest game in the series. Nice to see the H2 MCC version live as well.

[@johnnydewaele731]

OG had super jumps 😂 MCC don't 😢

[@mightbedelta]

@@johnnydewaele731 yea it does

[@peace_maybenot]

I feel like that johnson ending went just about as well as every other johnson ending ive watched XD

[@alectriciti]

35:30 This whole sequence was just beautiful

[@Alex-ip1dn]

Fast af boi. Awesome couch and a super fun run to watch

[@ShaunYoung-u1w]

This is hands down the single most impressive display of skill I've ever seen at a GDQ. Can't even imagine the hours to get to this level. Great run!

[@knockoutxxiii4793]

50:38 that slide is so smooth

[@not-pinkE]

those outskirts flys were so toughhhh

[@moortu]

the timer starts and stops weirdly at [1:10:45]kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z5rShn6deLSags0

[@Bobdd0]

As soon as the swordfly came out i just couldn't stop laughing holy shit

[@kaiboshvanhortonsnort359]

Pissing off the Marines to save time... So brilliant, so dangerous. I can't remember any other game where you pull a move like this.

[@MayorPeteOfficial]

I remember the moment of absolute joy seeing that white screen at the end of a legendary run. Hours and hours spent facing off against jackal snipers only for Zoo to sword-cancel through the entire map 😂

[@F0rger513]

I can't believe he just strafed and dueled it out in those hanger bays in Cairo Station. That was by far the hardest part when I beat it on Legendary back in the day.

[@shadowwubs535]

Oh yeah! It's zoobin time.

[@calebmiguel3103]

Just realized that Bryanto isn’t on the couch this time, actually surprised haha

[@Vilq88]

Where are all the prize and other special segments? Will they be added to yt in a different playlist or something?

[@Roxy-1576copperpuppyEmly]

Sword lunges across map to stab jackal sniper Master chief: “parry this you filthy fu*king casual”

[@McDangerVideos90]

I don’t care for most stuff at GDQ but this was a cool run

[@lunchbox997]

The ending with Johnsons getting knocked off was hilarious.

[@allesarfint]

I missed it live :(

[@thatepicwizardguy]

the best halo game by far

[@OrionEJ]

Ok that was a flippin incredible run.

[@weihnachtsmann7699]

Fantastic run!

[@polyesterShark]

wonder what the time would be if the save wasn't modded to guarantee the tram-skip setup at the very beginning. (if you don't know, most runners do this and don't start on the tutorial mission)

[@KojoGotMojo]

What a run!

[@emptycloud2774]

Almighty Zoo, reppin H2

[@HiakiMahaado]

1:15:08 this dialogue, and the gameplay paint a very different picture together XD;

[@Mr_Red_Eight]

Zooooooooo ❤

[@OON7]

Time to make the donuts

[@dballls]

Needing to explain noob combo? Am I getting old?

[@neontetraploid2026]

A lot of viewers probably have 0 halo experience so yeah, they probably should have it explained to them

[@collage_zzz]

Lets go zoo!

[@SldgeHammr]

But what about that Scarab?

[@daveyjones7391]

We’ve all run the simulations. They’re tough, but they ain’t invincible. Stick with Master Chief. He’ll know what to do.

[@Oneirics999]

dude this is sick, where tf do we go to see things like this?!

[@Dropshock20XX]

Sick

[@kaiboshvanhortonsnort359]

Is he playing on a controller? Yeesh. - edit: he switches, but is still crazy accurate with that controller.

[@Pincur345]

ZOO IS THE GOAT

[@jarredlevesque3659]

Neat

[@piggsy20]

Zoobert

[@asackrat]

I wish there was more energy from the casters but hell of a run anyway!

[@8thlvlMage]

Are you kidding? This was one of the most enthusiastic couches I've seen. Some couches just sit and occasionally go, "Yeah that was fast. Yeah that part is hard."

what is haloll?

[@euckb]

[@IGoTNoAiMBoT]

[@radjago]

The date is wrong. Halo 2 didn't release on PC until 2006.

[@CptBrian]

MCC on PC was 2019. Still a 2004 game.

[@jacobringenwald]

The MCC port doesn't use the Vista version though, I believe

[@Mediocre_Gaming1917]

@@jacobringenwald It uses it as a base, which is why there was no sword flying on release, but the actual game part of the Vista version was just the patched Xbox version

[@cb8721]

PC= on which zoo is playing 2004 = release date Applies to all games...

[@batti591]

It seems like they're basing on what year the game was released on its original platform, Ratchet and Clank had 2002 despite being played on a ps3
