Nerd³ Catches Sonic Mania

[@dinkusoninkus]

My favorite part is when dan couldn't find / couldn't be bothered to find a video clip of people getting off a plane so he just played the boarding clip backwards.

[@lwaves]

Therapist: "So Daniel, tell me, when did your obsessive hatred of grey rocks begin?"

[@hazerion9070]

"My Knob's just fallen off" - Daniel Hardcastle, 2017

[@98dizzard]

Hazerion "and hit the screen a bit"

[@katiepotatie1615]

I love the bit at the end where Dan is lying on the floor, his will to live is gone, and you can just hear the upbeat blippy music playing softly in the background. Actual art.

[@spookyboi3139]

I love how this video had a beautiful journey, it went from determination to anger to competition to happiness to fear to happiness again, then transformed to desperation, then to relief, then back to anger, and finally him surrendering to Sonic being the faster opponent Great video, glad you're back to taking your time to deliver exceptional content

[@eaglelily93]

During the intro I thought that drinking any time Dan cussed would be a great drinking game... I'm only five minutes in and I think I would have finished two or three bottles. Glad I didn't do that.

[@lyinarbaeldeth2456]

Dan's gone mad, but he's making some of his best material yet :D

[@ItamarZel]

I'm so happy he brought back the "Mreasts" joke

[@apertureemployee215]

you're not doing bad. Apparently the world record is 29.99 and uses pretty much the same path you do

[@chasehutchison1764]

no its like 27 i just watched someone do it in that time

[@WCtheComedian]

"I can do that faster than you, Sonic!" And then he does… Sort of. That part made me motion sick, but that's not Dan's fault :-)

[@Holsiboo]

this is the sort of high quality content I subbed for

[@samuelmumby7982]

I can feel the pain and joy in this one completely. Especially as someone who has been attempting level 9:9 in clustertruck for the past week I cannot express how much I feel your pain.

[@The-Urban-Goose]

"I can feel my *mreasts* flapping" -Nerdcubed, 2017

[@raianstanley607]

That month break really did you well. This is one of my favorite comedic videos of yours in a while :)

[@XOIIOXOIIO]

I didn't think I could watch someone doing this for 20 minutes, but yet here I am. Didn't know he'd be playing sonic 3d at the end, makes the video even better.

[@SpeciesV1X]

"I will find you and put you in a risotto" Someone's been watching American Gordon Ramsey

[@wesleylance8221]

We need falling out of plane vr. Right now.

[@timothyclark58]

Sonic forces a man to insanity

[@stevehayhurst3572]

Timothy Clark lolpppp

[@parkeradelaide4579]

Whats this now? Three weeks without calling his mum? Daniel I am ashamed. Call your mother.

[@juliakiely1]

this is the greatest thing iv ever read, and ive read fightclub

[@lunaticengineer8408]

You can replace the video with footage of cuphead, keep the audio and you'd never know he was playing sonic mania.

[@tacticalpoet]

VideoGamer00 How do we know he didn't?

[@lunaticengineer8408]

Nihale I honestly believe that he did.

[@jsb8261]

This was one of the best videos I've seen in quite some time. This truly is one of the best channels on KZbin.

[@nooneimportant5891]

Nerd's slow descent into insanity

[@wernt0]

This script was written by Matt.

[@aeronmartin5637]

Never thought a gaming video would have me googling 'can hedgehogs contract myxomatosis'.

[@persononfbiwatchlist1385]

One mans slow decent into depression coming to a cinema near you

[@Drewbydrew]

I stand corrected from the previous video. *This* is my new favourite video ever. Had me in stitches.

[@ockerdebokx3369]

Could only imagine what Rebecca was thinking when he was recording this

[@daggerfall2375]

Absolutely one of my favourite nerdcubed videos (old and new)

[@mightychimp2595]

the real reason nerd took the summer off

[@NuttyNow]

>Constantly complains about motion sickness. >Decides to play Sonic the Hedgehog in VR. Yup, makes perfect sense to me!

[@nibblrrr7124]

next up: sonic depression

[@silverblack9286]

That's already happened. It's called "Nerd³ Completes Sonic '06"

[@alexubel]

Incredibly happy to see the "old" Dan back.

[@RegiRaidillonVT]

Rebecca is gonna have a hard time calming him down

[@JudgeBane]

All I'd need is the scarf.

[@magnus4658]

well, close but the WR is 27.92 seconds. Good luck.

[@zetaomega8708]

I pray he sees this... To what religion you ask? All of them... EDIT: On a side note... How many attempts did he make in total for this? Like all Together.

[@theodorewinstone-hooper1446]

someone did it in 19.99

[@snufflebunny539]

no its 59 mins

[@BrusierWeight]

9:09 The epitome of satisfaction.

[@tomlennon2869]

WE WAIT ALL WEEK AND YOU GIVE US A SONIC VIDEO?! ... It's all we could've asked for... Love you xx

[@sandwich2473]

That video was glorious. The ending. I'm not sure how you didn't upchuck your guts. The laugh-crying, amazing.

[@gohstex]

That transition into vr was cinematically beautiful

[@TommieTF]

This video was amazing im glad that you are back

[@MetaDecker]

This reminds me of trying to get all the R licenses in Gran Turismo back in the day. Especially the screaming and throwing things.

[@Bubbleztoo]

Just wanna say, that was an EXCELLENT transition

[@KayofAllTrades]

Nerdcubed Decent into Madness Simulator.

[@ameliablight6888]

"34 seconds!... still... BUT NOW IT's THE OTHER SIDE OF IT!!!!" ---Dan 11/04/2017

[@honeynutbea]

04/11/2017

[@Quakepiano077]

ApolloDoesStuff dude he’s Probably American so don’t correct the date

[@GoudaFetaExpandDong]

Whatever I was expecting... I was NOT expecting that

[@OfficialCryoMusic]

My personal best is 33.07 seconds, also this was one of the most halarious things you have put out.

[@Skylus_Coywulf]

The little help me tab during the black screen just killed me XD

[@neocherry7973]

I've really been digging the recent vids. Good job m8

[@Spessforce]

Nerdcubed, the natural progression of this is to speedrun sonic 06. As a series, it would make you more ad revenue. As therapy, it would cure your brain of all intelligence, making you more like the mega-youtubers we all strive to be.

[@SSofIreland]

"As a series, it would make you more ad revenue." Pffft, sure. Right up until KZbin takes it all away because he said a naughty word.

[@MrValvoja]

This just might be one of Dan's finest works yet!

[@FoxGoldEnterprises]

I like how he refuses to call it speed running when it is clearly speed running

[@FoxGoldEnterprises]

It's an IL speed run

[@jachughes608]

+TFoxyBoy TIME ATTACK

[@FoxGoldEnterprises]

There is no difference between IL speed run and time attack. You're only calling it a time attack because he did.

[@SpoopsAHoy]

This is like me speedrunning in Mirror's Edge.

[@lhines2004]

You should watch his Mirror's Edge time trial video

[@wireoneunplugged]

I went through a controller and about 3 days of anger to get the sick score on THPS1+2 downhill jam. I relate to this level of frustration hard.

[@sirpngwnz111]

After this video, dan was so stressed that he spedrun every picross game 174x over in about 3.937 seconds.

[@appleogold]

it just gets better

[@DrJohnZoidberg]

I think Sonic is slowly turning Dan into Matt

[@pattyjb5762]

Can you feel the sunshine

[@charlesgibbs6021]

PatrickPlayz Games does it brighten up your day

[@pattyjb5762]

Mae Popping ton i know

[@eronlambo9476]

With this new upload schedule. It is well worth to wait a week to see something like this.

[@damieu2194]

Probably one of the best vids on this channel

[@monikamorningstarshadlo4129]

Dan (this may give you a heart attack from shock) you do know that the flower's "leaves" are actually called petals

[@georgiawest2485]

Omg when he had to run the loop, i died...and so did he i think. XD

[@Scuffed_Pleb]

And he was never seen or heard from again.

[@Happy-to3tf]

The current world record is 28.61

[@worldwide72]

A 20 minute video with 0 ads, I wonder why

[@connorjones9275]

I feel like this is how I would be exactly if I started speedrunning

[@Mysterios1989]

I am glad Dan returns to the his best content - the content where we witness him suffer through a game. I miss the hell-series, after a stressfull time in university, there was nothing better than seeing Dan play Sonic 06.

[@spawnof200]

"i will find you and i will put you in a risotto" classic

[@m-noble-4-731]

Hearing Dan slowly slip into madness is the greatest thing ever

[@gferrol118]

"My nobs flung off" Dan 2017

[@peytonfaz]

THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME THAT SONIC VR WAS A THING! I JUST HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE! Also that springboard thing fked me up. I fell on the ground because of that.

[@aryasuri9421]

Nice to see that Dan also uses 'mreasts' in his normal vocabulary.

[@stickcricketgod2235]

Nerd 3 is definitely becoming insane. That low youtube revenue

[@MSpacer]

This is your nerd on patreon

[@usbhub95]

near the end we hear the most terrifying noise known to man

[@LoopyLucy95]

Well done KZbin your encoder has made this video an epileptic hazard...

[@adriantoader4341]

This would have made an amazing NerdCubed Challenges video back in the day.

[@adriantoader4341]

Every time he says "Good speed there" he sounds like a Sky Sports commentator getting bored and out of ideas for what to say.

[@summitsummit3634]

Not sure which half of the video dan was more likely to die in.

[@croletan5424]

He'll be on "My Strange Addiction" soon.

[@joegreenhalgh43]

This made me infinitely happy

[@aryasuri9421]

I can't tell whether the VR fatigue is real or not.

[@GandalfReagge]

It is

[@bar-elch7809]

I realy didn't think it was going to be this great of a video. Again you proved me wrong Dan.

[@Kurohno]

7:10 After COPPA: "Holy shit they're coming back. "

[@r01ds0z2]

This is my favorite video so fr and I've been watching officialnerdcubed for a really long time

[@DemonStink]

Angry Dan = Best Dan

[@unknownemrys]

Whatever happens to the indie sonic game. Sonic utopia.

[@Alrowe13]

I am a student and would like to confirm that I do in fact that I sit there doing nothing

[@SSofIreland]

Now, judging by the screaming, raging and profanity, you may come to the conclusion that Dan hates this game. But nope -- that was just how pretty much everyone sounded when they were playing a platform game in the '90s.

[@pinionatedminion38]

Dude, this is awesome. Love the twist.

[@codylindquist1458]

This is the nerd cubed I love

[@fionndenvir9631]

I love this channel but watching dan suffer completes me

[@bossashark6015]

youtuber dies while playing sonic vr died of exhaustion

[@MsSunnyMuffins]

It's my birthday This video has been the highlight of it

[@ameliablight6888]

I'm not sure if that is a complement to Dan, or an insult to all of your friends. EDIT: either way, you get a like.

[@TheIrishTurtle]

Looking forward to seeing you run this at AGDQ next year Dan! ;D

[@parkeradelaide4579]

Just had a look at the speedrun website. .. apparently people have done this level in 18 seconds... HOW

[@crackedemerald4930]

Parker Adele it's some kind of magic...

[@EmperorsAlpaca]

fastest i have seen is 27.9s

[@semiperfekt]

Title should have been "Curse words done right".

[@caasinom8008]

I need this but with face cam so bad

[@whitelotus7457]

You made this video for the sole purpose of stressing us out.

[@poopydoopy1953]

Dan is off his meds again!

[@BrutalFates]

You would be surprised that flowers actually do move....

[@thenotoriousdig610]

My body is ready for another NerdCubed video

[@hankattack]

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results. Albert Einstein.

[@luciusveritas6677]

Slot machines.
