"Didn't crash on the opening FMV!" When that's a "good start", you know you're in for a ride.

[@Spaced92]

Lmao, I bought the remastered HD collection of 2 and 3 for the PS3 and it kept crashing around the opening, never got fixed. Just Konami things.

[@davidchez513]

@@Spaced92 2 years old but this is not even the HD collection. That doesn't have Quick Save, only the PC version does.

[@liriomusic4391]

I've played this game in almost all versions and it never crashed on me, I wonder if I'm just lucky

[@Schnipps]

[@WineRedEchos]

every time I see punchy run I remember this SH1 run he did a few years ago where the people around him just didn't give a shit about his run and they were talking about food during his explanations. eating during his run, on camera. pantomiming to the people off camera. he was fuckin furious. I always feel bad for him when I think about that run. that had to have been shitty. but here he is having a good time and being entertaining, so clearly he didn't let that bullshit keep him down.

There was a Game here It's saved now...

[@davidmedford1166]

I like how during the dog ending, the dog growls when Eddie is on the screen because Eddie kills dogs.

[@reptaronrice]

36:53 - “Game saved.” “Can’t save. YOU FOOL!” Don’t know why that made me laugh so much.

[@fortune2122]

Dude dropped a 50 just to get bodied

[@thepacman2]

I love punchy. He's stressed out, so he's relatable. He's easily aggravated, so he's relatable. He's charismatic, so he's fun to watch.

[@Zeldathemillennial]

Same dude

[@therider6420]

thepacman2 he’s basically a cute version of TearOfGrace

[@willbe3043]

this is sad

[@pogothem3526]

i felt the exact opposite about his demeanor. but i enjoyed the run

[@raidenthekat2444]

I enjoyed watching...but charismatic is a reach lol. Unless the criteria for charismatic is "Talks alot"

[@Shotgungunshot1]

Mary: Come over James: You're dead and Silent Hill is scary Mary: I'm waiting in our 'Special Place'. James: 1:03

Punchyline

[@xBananaTERROR]

punchy has the best explanations of minutiae ever, and we need more of it.

[@DarkSphinxx]

this man is a commentary genius - i dont know how he can keep up the pace with his talking and playing perfectly

[@MrHappymunch]

when the runner and the couch are just having fun guess what? so are we.

[@theNextStage9]

"It's too dark to SAVE the GAME!"

[@jcace13]

This 50 minute Arby's commercial was great, they have the meats.

[@Mr624tony]

Did he save at any point in this game?

[@VBandit47]

I don't think so

[@Klarden]

CAN'T SAVE

[@PoisonInc]

Watched it through again... dunno, anyone got a timestamp?

[@_ZeroSum_]

41:16 I think I saw the word save on screen for like 2 frames? I dunno, he was going pretty fast.

[@helloofthebeach]

He saved the game

[@takki3942]

One of the best GDQ runs ever. It's incredibly entertaining and Punchy is the most charismatic runner ever. Couch is also incredibly funny.

[@Lario64]

This was the very first run I watched by Punchy and I was totally blown away by his charisma. He remains my favorite runner to this day!

[@mewvirus9882]

This guy sounds like he speedruns his whole life

[@YukoValis]

Punchy is one of the better, most entertaining runners out there. : ) yeah instant like for this one.

[@Gearless13]

He is saving every frame.

[@MrMcJazzhands]

This run and the awful block were my absolute favorites of AGDQ 2019. Punchy's an excellent runner and it's awesome to be able to come back to the vods.

[@drakekalluna8150]

He seems to hate this game but its obvious he loves this so much.

[@EmptyDomoKanti99]

this is genuinely amazing he reminds me of the guy who did Bloodborne at another GDQ, just caffeinated

[@tomazvehar7221]

You mean HeyZeusHeresToast? Also, my first thought was something stronger than coffee, since Punchi is not usually that excited in the least xD

[@lucamateipintilie7006]

I was thinking last year resident evil 7. That guy was amazing

[@Mitwadus]

Tomaž Vehar punchi is a sarcastic bastard. But woo.

[@LuizMGRamos]

He ran it again this year, even more electrified hahah

[@gam1ngfr3ak]

I know this is a little late, but Zeus also did Bloodborne at this event! It wasn't on the schedule but ended up being a bonus game donation incentive

[@MahDryBread]

Watched it live, easily one of my all time favourite runs on a GDQ event

[@pogothem3526]

"i watched it live" Weird flex but ok....

[@Frome1988]

Love all the camera whine XD

[@MystraeliS]

I've been waiting for the re-upload of this ever since the run. The run started somewhat after 7AM in my timezone and I watched the stream in bed with my tablet. However, I fell asleep a few minutes into the run and woke up for a short time at 53:30. I kid you not, I was puzzled all week whether this actually happened on stream or whether it was some weird dream.

[@movingparts6270]

Can we start giving prizes to the most entertaining runners? I love it when they're able to have a great time with it.

[@emikochan13]

the prize is more people viewing them on twitch ;)

[@mspeter97]

Everytime Punchy's here you know this will be fun

[@1128nesecret]

This run is great. Love the energy and information. You can tell they really enjoy the game.

[@AsukaSorju]

When I see Punchi, it's an instant like, I know he's going to make the best content.

[@sushisuke]

Loved Punchy's SH1 run, love this too. SH2 is my second favorite game of all time, and I'm so happy to see it quickly getting wrecked like this!

[@Alexia-ys6yx]

ok im only 1 minute into watching the run and im in love with this guys commentary already

[@jonesso11]

There is so much salt in this speedrun! I love it!

[@yaya2combatarms]

Holy shit I’m losing my breath just from listening to this guy lol

[@ZeroEckoes]

That crowd moan at 56:02

[@Lowco5]

41:33 I know i'll keep coming back to this clip every now and then just to laugh my ass off.

[@PoisonInc]

Oh yeah, I remember this guy on the Dogs Life run! I like how he reminds me of an eccentric science-y type.

[@ThePowerhouseHD]

The last Blockbuster is in Bend, Oregon, USA about two hours from my house. Fun fact for y'all.

[@marshsticks992]

Most entertaining runner, every single time! Props to the knowledgeable but laid back couch too.

[@saeedatenzi]

mad respect to the first guy who donated at beginning of the video, stay strong pal.

[@RosieTheRo]

i love the mental image of james just casually jogging past all the horrors of silent hill also i love this run bc it skips over the cut scene of eddie vomiting - among all the gore and horror in this game, that's the one part i cannot stand. eddie's VA is just too good 😂

[@infernoskyful]

This guy is a great entertaining speedrunner!

[@Bl4ckD0g]

I think Punchy has become one of my favorite runners

[@Matt_19-89]

I really don't get speedrunning but at the same time I love how they find all this shortcuts and glitches

[@voodoopls2856]

Punchy is an energy drink in human form.

[@theliteraltetsuoooo]

Loved the Sierra game puzzle logic reference regarding the wax doll, lighter and horseshoe. Dead on.

How could a game that haunted my dreams and kept me up at night be made funny? And this game took me a long time to complete.

It takes a special personality to make this game fucking hilarious. Great run!

[@matt4193]

"This run is full of game saves! How can you sit there and skip cutscenes?!"

[@halfarsedemo]

I literally just watched him do this run on the european speedrun channel a few days ago but he is so charismatic I can watch it all again.

[@thundervaart]

me, too :P

[@WSmith1984]

I watched his ESA run of Silent Hill 3 a few weeks ago and the game glitched so hard the difficulty got corrupted.

[@Jxxron]

I look away for a couple of seconds and dudes already on the next part holy shit

[@chrisavenell3172]

The real question James should be asking Eddie about the pizza isn't that he's eating pizza but instead we're did he even get a pizza in silent Hill?

[@Techhunter_Talon]

Maybe his version of Silent Hill provides pizza as his healing items. :P

[@jurioprandi5766]

Pyramid Head runs a pizzeria in his spare time

[@helloofthebeach]

Pizza? That looks like...pizza to you? Don't worry. It's just a joke!

[@pieV3000]

I think it's implied the little girl got it from the normal world and have it to Eddie

[@skeetsmcgrew3282]

Considering he will never get to taste pizza ever again, the real question he should be asking is if he can have a slice

[@kovulion7777]

another sad reminder of this series :( Silent Hill the series has become Silent Hill itself, sad memories of a few people, people reminded are suffering

I woke up today from a Silent Hill dream where I had to use keyboard and mouse to control myself running from and fighting monsters. In the dream I knew I hated using tank controls and got hit often and kept messing up puzzles. I wish you could have seen the monster design. Were a mix of Alien, Dead Space and Tentacle Pron. Actually frightening and difficult to avoid and I kept falling into a dirty pool of algae water.

[@Syl518]

I used to love Blockbuster! That business was the entire reason I enjoyed PS2 so much. I would sometimes just sit there playing Call of Duty 2: The Big Red One playing Liberator because I always enjoyed that mission. To this day I have no clue if I ever finished that game... My PS2 is currently broken, so if I haven't, I can't anymore. I also switched from playing Playstation to Xbox to PC (I'm a PC player now), so my skills are massively screwed in the way of Playstation controls. The depression I had when that place shut down was unbelievable.
