[@Vometbomb]

Your profile pic is great. Love until dawn.

[@jameswilcox511]

I started with Punchy's SH2 run, then watched the SH3 UFO ending run, and now I'm here. He's an absolute joy to watch and listen to.

[@iGrOdA]

Same

[@Shadowtron1221]

That's the exact same order that I watched the runs in.

[@midnightlycanfox6280]

Weird, I was doing this last night & this morning. I've watched these runs before too lmao

[@jhart6764]

Mine was SH3 UFO ending. Then SH2. Finally, I'm here for SH1.

[@Forever_Zero]

It's weird too see someone playing Silent Hill with such confidence and enthusiasm , like seriously, I've played this game like 20 times and the scares still get me

[@Crying11Wolf]

Forever Zero never understood what people find scary, there's not really any jump scares in the silent hill games, and the radio warns you of all enemies? 🤷‍♂️

[@Crying11Wolf]

Craig Adams yes. Jump scares actually “scare” you. As in your body reflexes and it gets your heart rate going. Hearing radio static and some creepy noises in a video game? How is that remotely scary?

[@Crying11Wolf]

Craig Adams gonna have to agree to disagree on this one mate.

[@valletas]

@@Crying11Wolf you never played tge first one didnt you?

[@Crying11Wolf]

Victor Valletas play it often. Still have it downloaded on PSN.

[@nervatraianus]

Punchy is such a likeable guy. When you see him running or even on the couch you know you're in for a memorable run. Awesome runner and awesome entertainer!

[@WineRedEchos]

idk if you saw his ESA run of this. but boy that was memorable. but not entertaining. not really his fault. but he was getting more and more visibly upset as the run went on.

[@Stana999]

@@WineRedEchoswhy was he getting upset?

[@WineRedEchos]

@Stana999 it's been years and years since I commented this but to answer your question, he was being talked over the entire run. People around him were eating McDonald's and whatnot and talking about that, it was like a shitty bro podcast was trying to usurp his speed run iirc.

[@Nienharo]

I ended up clicking on this because of its title and my curiosity to see what game this speed run was for. I was most definitely not disappointed. Punchy's explanations are very clear about everything and Punchy and his couch cast are hilarious. Great fun to watch.

[@Nienharo]

you right.

[@TheLegless101]

Punchy is pretty punchy tbh

[@Mitwadus]

Nienharo between Punchy, Maxi and plywood this run was gold.

[@bimachandra9014]

This guy sounds like mage in video games that have quest for you

[@Bawitdabadabangdadang]

Haha you're right!

[@christopherthorne8133]

As a fellow Englishman I have to say that Punchy's dry sense of humor is a welcome accompaniment to one of the finest games ever. Crack on bud, cracking run and cracking event as always.

[@wh33lers]

Hilarious guy. Loved him talking all the way

[@bryh555]

One thing I love about speedruns is how it doesn’t make sense for the character you’re playing most of the time. Like story wise for Harry to wake up and immediately take off on his mission to find his daughter knowing exactly what he needs to do and where he needs to go is so funny to me

[@1031Vulcan]

I think this is the best run I've ever seen. I love Punchy's humor and explanation of the game mechanics.

[@YukoValis]

At first I thought the runner was annoying, but as it went I turned out liking him. He is very on the ball with his comments.

A lot of people loved BotW, but 2018-01-10 01-59-54 was my real game of the year for 2017.

[@chasedecottignies8444]

I first heard punchy on the re7 run done by carcinogen and I liked him a lot!!! This run was great.

[@OHG_Fawx]

I'm glad the couch had confused faces just like me when that one donation comment said "SH was the first survival horror game". Maybe they meant it was THEIR first survival horror game, but it definitely wasn't THE first.

[@arcticshocked]

I had to pause for a second after that came up.

[@yeetleslaw8529]

I think resident evil holds that title, only because they coined the term "survival horror". But they're not the first, since they have been horror games before RE.

[@OHG_Fawx]

John Beetles Alone in the Dark created the modern formula, RE perfected it.

[@megajudge3]

The first survival horror game is probably the one that Resident Evil was inspired by. Released only in Japan for the Famicom. I believe it was called 'Sweet Home' or something like that.

[@kiraina25]

@@megajudge3 Woooooooooorms!

[@SilentEvil97]

Great run! Loved the commentary!

[@EdwinWade]

This video ages like fine wine... but i think its Punchy's charismatic dialogue/explanations in the whole stream that makes this entertaining. I come back to this just to watch his runs every now and then. Still can't believe its only been 4 yrs...

[@JBiggsNewJersey]

Excellent run, runner, couch, game, everything, cheers guys!

[@luisdv311]

Great run and commentary Punchy!!!

[@Romanoff.Kalashnikov]

This entire video and speedrun is so underrated!!

[@JT-hs6hc]

Still my fav. GDQ run of all. Punchy is just a force. Absolutely wonderful.

[@MahDryBread]

Fantastic run!

[@RazuOni]

I love watching punchy's runs since he's very informative and hilarious as well. Great video :D

[@TleilaxuEyes]

Great run and great commentary.

[@kitewinter6179]

Listening to Punchy's commentary is balm for the soul. I'm still laughing and I have watched this many, many times. So glad I was able to catch it live, too. (and, yes, you couldn't see shit outside your window in Germany during that run)

[@whenanimatorsdie]

I must say, Punchy's my favorite speed-run commentator so far. Really entertaining, fluid in talk, and interesting comments. Good lad Punchy, thumbs up!

[@michaelc5722]

Punchy is by far the best for explaining things

[@adolfgalland1988]

thank you for this content

[@abeztywoonsun8110]

Thank you for play

[@gigabytemon]

Not only did he get the 47 RTA prediction, he also got the 49!

[@robismetal]

Agentjrs let's plays of these games like a decade ago got me into silent hill, neat to hear their donation here

[@red420noscope]

Me too, I just finished their playthrough of Silent Hill 4. I'm bummed Punchy or the couch barely reacted to the donation :(

[@CurryFeatures]

Punchy seems like the kind of guy I could do a 6 hours drinking session with. I could listen to him talk forever.

[@mariuscheek]

Excellent! My favourite!

[@sunbro84]

top game, top gamer, top commentary

[@mrgabest]

I really enjoyed this run, more because of the runner than the game.

[@ksad96]

I keep rewatching this because Punchy's incredible at being funny, even though he's doing everything on the fly as a speedrunner. His comments on the Superman 64 run is the perfect example, just making an excellent joke on the fly.

[@avideogamemaster]

I love this game "2018-01-10 01-59-54.flv"

[@jos9072]

Aaaah. Silent Hill. Good ol time,. My first horror game, Just great :)

[@kevinsolo3591]

My first experience of this dude punchy. Mad entertaining, id prob listen to him run a podcast regardless of the subject.

[@ashdavies9803]

Even to this day of advancement in technology with better graphics and all. SH1 remains most spooky of all.

[@NicolasSilvaVasault]

quite sad to see few people watching the best horror game of all times, good run

[@AnimaniacZero]

His analysis of IHOP is spot on.

[@rendevoir4736]

[@TheSquareOnes]

Awesome run, awesome commentary. Why no longer succinct, is it because of all the door-centric exposition?

[@aaronwalderslade]

That was the most restrained and modest commentary I've found on here so far. He never once said the nonsensical "that's a one frame move at 100fps."

[@Fractal_blip]

Forgive my ignorance but what does that mean exactly?

[@seelengst]

Punchys Great :D. GoGo silent hill!

[@SchaggaIch]

"I downed like 3 Cokes before this run... bottles!!" Punchy ist funny :-)

[@pewyroll5129]

how do you down the other kind? i think you left off the N'

[@lunatheluma3804]

Punchy is my favorite speed runner by far, he is really funny but is also good at the games he plays, and that's not even mentioning what games he chooses to run *cough cough* T.R.A.G *cough cough*

[@leonflorence118]

Anyeone else notice agentjr with the donation? I remember watching his SH3 playthrough way back in the day. Probably the first let's player I ever watched on KZbin

[@Torthrodhel]

Still strange to see those knife children, for someone who had the PAL version of the game (where they were replaced by mumblers due to wacky regional censorship daftness - enemy behaves the same regardless). Either way still the scariest a Silent Hill game has ever got. 3 came close, 4 went more weird than scary, 2 went more tragic than scary, but 1's still where it's at when it comes to feeling oppressed by the atmosphere.

[@AGore88]

Fantastic Run! I had a question for anyone though, everytime I ever played Silent Hill, i'd waste all my ammo right before the end boss, as it caused him to instantly die and you didnt have to fight him at all. Is there a reason the speed run doesnt use this strat? Is it somehow faster to face the final boss? (sorry if im common sensing! ;D)

[@StoicVeR]

dont know if you ever got an answer, but I think I know why this is and why it might not be used in the runs. If you're a bad player and lose all your ammo before the final boss, the game has a failsafe that'll keep you from softlock. Ie, the final boss mightbe unbeatable if you don't have a long range weapon. Speeders deem it time consuming prob, so that may be why it's not used.

[@StigmaticClown]

It's because you not only have to waste ammo boxes plus what's loaded in the gun. If you play on easy, your ammo boxes are doubled, so even more to waste. Then you have to cycle through your weapons in the menu, taking a bit of time each menu load, and fire each gun leading to the clicking from being empty. Then the boss dies. More time consuming than just killing the boss.

[@ThomasFlaum90]

remember playing this as a kid and it scared the shit ouf of me haha

[@OCV102]

i did not make it past the beginning when you get the radio and the info that it turns on when there is a creature around

[@Foxhound3857]

How do they always have so many donations to read off? Is there some huge backlog they’re reading from that they never catch up on, or do they just come in that fast?

[@aaronwalderslade]

The enemies don't have random health, it's that the shooting is inaccurate. It's one of the things that the Devs put in this game to make it more realistic. The whole idea was to make you feel like an ordinary person, rather than a game hero. I regularly read OPM and PS Power at the time.

[@mom5494]

damn that new game hype lmao

[@hyperlegit6096]

Mad skillz

[@SimonB.]

This game deserves a remake

[@AdequateMusique]

Anyone else noticed how they kept changing his name from Punchy to Punchi and back, until like 20 minutes into the run?

[@nickklok4955]

His Twittername 'Punchy' was taken. So he decided to take up the name Punchi.

"I don't like common sense." - Punchy, 2018

[@Chaarad]

"playing it safe"...I just remembered my first playthrough of Silent Hill 2. Was so conservative with my health items that I went most of the game with under 50% health....guess which ending I got ;)

[@jerrodshack7610]

I just beat it for the first time last night, the game drowns you in resources even on normal difficulty so i finished with like 10+ medkits and drinks, 300 handgun bullets, 150 shotgun shells, 40ish rifle shells lmao

[@Techhunter_Talon]

36:00 This point onward is just hilarious. Suppose the interesting thing that can occur when you travel outside of your country, noticing all the things that are weird about the country you traveled to that the people there treat as normal. XD

[@MidnightMechanic]

Would the UFO ending be a faster run, since it ends at the lighthouse, saving several minutes doing Nowhere? I get you gotta beat the game first before you can unlock the gem, but I've found the game much more forgiving if you do the UFO run on medium difficulty, that running through town is hellish.

[@ryjelsum]

The rules for any% specify playing on new game and not new game+ so you cannot get the UFO ending. UFO ending itself is a category though

[@majmunbezgaca5220]

this game is still fucking terrifying even with outdated graphics...

[@JT-hs6hc]

I like to think the gfx help to make it unsettling. It adds to the surreal atmosphere.

[@squallisaac]

why does he kill the boss with shots isn´t this one of the sh games where the boss just dies when you go in with no ammo?

[@nickklok4955]

Yeah that's the last one. However, all ammo must be consumed BEFORE the fight takes place. That way he needs to shoot up all his ammo, which takes time because you can't run and shoot. So I think that's why.

[@XxLonelyxX]

WAIT HE BEAT IT IN 32 MINUTES?

[@nickklok4955]

That's called IGT or 'In game time' which means he's done it without the loading screens, pausing etc. Very common in speedrunning. If it's a RTA (Real Time Attack), it means the total time is taken. Anyhow, people with slower computers (more waiting time), could never achieve a WR with RTA. That's why IGT is often used.

[@cybersosis]

why so gray?
