Castlevania 64 :: SPEED RUN

[@danielovsky3850]

To see what gdq has become in a few years 👏🏻👏🏻

[@miguelonucr]

Oh man, I'm still coming back to watching Cosmo's speedruns of this game. Best speedrunner overall to this day in my humble opinion.

[@MrZangetsu468]

I like Cosmo's attitude. He seems like a big kid speed running these games.

[@roetemeteor]

He was.

[@Oecobius33]

I love speedruns of old N64 games. Games from that era often have some interesting quirks and physics that are just loads of fun to watch!

[@atlasmoon5497]

YESSS ^this

[@rickyleaf09]

I remember playing this game as a kid and would get freaked out by the garden level and being chased by the chainsaw guy. I did manage to beat it with both characters so go me. Awesome run by the way!

[@miguelonucr]

LOL, same with me! Just the sound of Frankie with the chainsaw used to creep me out!!!!!!!!

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

Also guys, be sure to watch the Highlight/Blooper Reels from SGDQ (links in description).

[@Automat1cJack]

Capture Cards!

[@TimedRevolver]

steve kosman Doubt irategamer would go for it. Last I knew, he still vehemently denies being a ripoff of AVGN, and I know comments would mention it anywhere they tried to do that.

[@briannettles6202]

Cosmo you are a big inspiration to all of us thank you everything you done we support you

[@RelentlessBros]

RIP Cosmo

[@ProductofSeebach]

Thank you. When seeing the title, it was the first thought I had.

[@slickbricknick123]

I miss this whole setting, before it got so over commercialized and made so PC. What a would give to go back to AGDQ pre 2016.

[@VonFirflirch]

I only found out about GDQ later, but watching these old ones now, they do have a comfier vibe

[@linkthehylian]

Nice job Cosmo! Hope to see more in the future!

[@celebrategout1008]

this comment didnt age very well. holy shit

[@psychodad95]

This game was one of the best games in my childhood . I don't understand why this is game should be shitty or boring . This game is one of the underratest games ever. Play this game first and then you can judge.

[@Jbayz]

I did play it. Its bad.

[@VonFirflirch]

I can't speak for vanilla CV64, but I had a great time playing Legacy of Darkness for the first time, recently.

[@TheLilFid]

The title soundtrack is just amazing !!!

[@NightdawnLetsPlay]

This run is really good simply on how informative this is. Also the couch commentary is excellent. Blueglass is one of my favourite ones. I'm looking forward to AGDQ 2014 and TGT 2013!

[@carbonwater]

That final death scene. #explodingforever

[@somekindoflandcow]

takes 10x longer to watch him blow up than it does to kill him

[@Chadius]

Dracula's selling his death super hard.

[@crazyhans]

Comparing this to Cosmo's more recent runs on his channel. Such improvement.

[@dontstop2517]

Hey Cosmo! You were a madman!

[@phrrrp]

"We've had many comments asking if Cosmo can get the mic." "He's actually doing most of the talking." Poor orange shirt dude.

[@Zombiepizza88]

One of my favorite N64 games. The game will make you start over, and play it on normal half way through if you played it on [easy] like I did lol fun times

[@miguelonucr]

One of my fav games when I was a kid, so naturally I bought on ebay about a year ago... So I start playing the game, and I'm all into it and having a great time and BAAAM, after the elevator scene I had to start over because I was playing on easy and I completely forgot about that tiny little detail! Merciless!!!!

[@A-bit-Shifty]

Cosmo was a speedrunning legend, sad he gave up the life

[@paatchii]

Thank you for uploading this :)

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

yw:)

[@FRAGILEcho]

Cosmo is such a god, seriously.

[@FRAGILEcho]

***** he's pretty good at what he does, broski (:

[@usedangel000]

Wonderful run, loved it!

[@TheCodedtestament]

i liked this game it had dark atmosphere the characters had personality, even though it had severe camera problems and bad implemented platforms the action and the story were fun enough to keep you interested…

[@wired-up5677]

This game scared the shit outta me when I was younger but I have to agree the camera angles sucked but the soundtrack was perfect

[@bigfed12]

Ok, so Cosmo dies in the spikes in the left tower while the guy is reading donations. He then waits to do another donation right when he has to attempt it again. Really need to get a donation scroll

[@DiomedesStrosMkai]

Why do people need to have comments with their donations. Seriously. I get that it promotes donations, but no one gives a fuck. At all. If you donate $100 it seems fair, but for some bloke who donated 5? Seriously?

[@ImperatorZed]

Runners ask for quiet sometimes in difficult sections. He didn't here so it's fair game, if a bit unfortunate. These aren't WR attempts anyhow

[@ImperatorZed]

tfw you realize you just responded to a 2 year old youtube comment

[@frosy1180]

@@ImperatorZed I'll avenge you by responding to your 5 year old comment, have a good day

[@TheZachorios]

as a kid I got to dracula with the guy with the whip but I could never beat his 3rd form.. also that nitro part as a kid was sooo hard! great run!

[@Swamplord]

Cosmo beat the Reinhardt record the other day, check it out! He's doing such a great service to this game, it's not bad at all, people need to accept that lol.

[@MAdisMas]

Ah come on now, this game is mediocre at best. I really wanted to love this game in my early teens but even at that time I knew better. It started the long standing tradition of bad 3D Castlevenia games. You have all the rights to love this game but maaaaaaaaaan it's far from being a good game.

[@Swamplord]

It's a solid game, good graphics and music, of course the controls were wonky but it's an N64 game lol. But hey, we like what we like.

[@rofyle]

Space Station Silicon Valley seems to be the best game for a speed run. You have racing animals in it!

[@pockit5107]

Now I understand all of the cosmo love. He's the only speedrunner on this channel that isn't a completely zoned out-mute when he plays in front of an audience

[@dErRiNkE]

I guess you haven't seen any of PJ's runs then :P

[@pockit5107]

RiNkE spielt ... I've watched multiple speed-runners on this channel other than Cosmo, and they all sat there, not even trying to make the run more interesting, while letting all of the backseat gamers that attend the speed-runs do all of the talking and explanations.

[@jessewilliams2820]

Fred Harvey Go watch some PJ. You'll enjoy it.

[@pockit5107]

Jesse Williams I might, what does he speed-run? I like Cosmo's speedruns because I'm a big fan of all of the zelda games he speedruns as well as his castlevania runs.

[@dErRiNkE]

Fred Harvey mostly old nes/snes games, mostly trashy ones ^^ for example battletoads, super ghouls&ghosts, solstice, classic stuff like that

[@munk109]

well well well if it isn't my old pal BlueGlass ;))

[@skatmanbb]

way to go cosmo you are the man

[@xexmey]

skatmanbb not anymore

[@babypizza3903]

I had that problem when I first played this game, too. Got to a certain spot and couldn't progress anymore. Wish I knew how to read back then!

[@bbb-si8mb]

I remember playing this trippin on acid back in the day, fun times

[@MiddleClasshole77]

wow bro ur cool

[@bbb-si8mb]

MiddleClasshole345 it might have been mushrooms, cant remember

[@wired-up5677]

b bb you're a trooper my guy

[@wired-up5677]

b bb idk myself this would either be good trip or a bad one this game gets pretty dark.

[@Th3Matrix3]

I never owned Castlevania on 64, but my homeboy did and we both played it and raced to see who could beat it first, I won with a time of 5 hours, took him 8 to beat it

[@jameswarner5878]

This was the first Castlevania I beat.

[@fernandotorres2169]

castlevania 64 is the funniest castlevania ive ever played

[@MrSmbai]

Cosmo does more than just Zelda???

gollom2004 True Cosmo fan right here. Thanks for the info buddy

[@ZOMBIEEZ]

Back when Cosmo was sane and normal 😢

[@djrhaool]

Pretty impressive

[@DBSaiyanTim777]

28:56 the cracks on the wall look like a bunny.

[@chumcalmdown]

After his mental breakdown I became a Carcinogen fan instead.

Let's go cozzo WinWaker

[@WoeBringer1195]

52:28 ...Wow man hes fighting the final boss... That's the worst time ever to ask if its ok to do donations lol..

[@cantaloupeme]

Wow. Impressive

[@Jerkwad152]

10:04 I think somebody off-screen got stabbed. XD

[@theultimatechicken11]

yesssss goooo cosmooooo

[@Tom3kkk]

YES COSMO!

[@mukychip]

yay cosmo :D

[@thirdvect0r]

YSG

[@rayday4644]

Back when he was normal

[@dorenciobarnes7220]

If you purchase more than 10k from the shop the speed run is longer because you have to fight him. its a trick in the contract to give him your soul pass 10k

[@calvin6314]

Dorencio Barnes its actually 30k! at least, on Normal Mode. Hard Mode may be different

[@espertoo100]

Great video / run, I wonder what are the chances of you make a speed run Soul Reaver?

[@xaer0knight]

sweet dodges :)

[@donoregano]

castlevania 64, legacy > Castlevania: Lords of Shadow, is the best castlevania 3d and the music is awesome

[@HsienKoMeiLingFormerYANG]

ORÉGANO X_X That opposition side of the game. LOS doe what Nintendon’t.

[@faLconHunter83]

dat CosmoHawk Hair.

[@XclusiveXbox]

Great time Cosmo, well done. Thanks for the upload SDA, can you link me the SGDQ highlight/blooper reel? I can't find it in the description.

[@M0R0N172]

A crazy glitch that happen to me when I had this game is affter beating the maze one of the dogs spwned in that back allie way and I unded up missing the key to the maze/ vampire and villager vampire boss's in the dungeon and I was toscared to go back lol

[@Nickolay1994]

Hi guys! Can you tell me please-where I can see speedruns like that in california?

[@christopherhorruitiner1067]

WHY is this game considered shitty?!!

[@AwkwardAndInnocent]

People just love to hate on the N64 unfortunately

[@markwooten9759]

Maybe, just throwing this out there, because it is.

[@markwooten9759]

Luther Vandross Actually one of the first games I ever played came from this console : Legend of Zelda The Ocarina of Time.

[@komradekontroll]

Luther Vandross N64 actually gets some unreal praise from what I can tell. Blame AVGN and Game Grumps for the blind hate of this game.

[@DeadGruesome]

Mark Wooten wrong

[@fernandotorres2169]

i like this game and nintendo 64 is the best gamemachine in the world!

[@MiddleClasshole77]

if you enjoy 20-30 fps action on any game that tried to have semi decent graphics then sure

[@legendofzelda100]

Yes, video games are about nothing other than the fps and the graphics. Who gives a shit about good gameplay

[@billpenor9930]

30 fps is shit no matter how good the game is, it looks like garbage to the trained eye

[@lankey6969]

Cosmo looks like the seed of Chucky...

[@charris1200]

Aw, the SDA page on this game isn't updated. Or am I missing something?

[@gustavobarbosa9799]

Is the guy on the back hardcore sleeping? :D

[@DaedalosC9]

Do u have any speed run with Reinhardt?

[@Shad0wmoses]

is that ubergoose in the back? the person that did dark souls BKH run?

[@forumrabbit]

Looks like goos.

[@Jehuty66]

Im aint the biggest castlevania fan, but motorcycles, chainsaws?? whaddaa??

[@Redx2213]

I still have this game and still haven't beat it my brother did idk how but he did lol this Castlevania is sorta underrated yet just plain awful it could done better maybe a remake or something lol

[@Cuzzys2nd]

I second that remake suggestion. Something with LoS graphics and better controls would be a welcome break from the whole "God of War clone" thing CV currently has going on...

[@Redx2213]

Cuzzys 2nd Channel So do I the story line is all fucked now also because of these turn of event Cv is taking now this is basically kills off Sonia Belmont and Leon Belmont from ever happening

[@dantemustlivemode]

***** The LoS games aren't part of the main Castlevania continuity, it is it's own universe.

[@Redx2213]

Michael Patrick thanks i know i've found that out recently

[@tsunamininja]

According to the site (speeddemosarchive.com/Castlevania64.html) The fastest run is over an hour. Are all these being done on easy or has it just not been updated?

[@tsunamininja]

***** Thank you. In any case some time last year I realised that it is indeed not a WR site.

[@ShadowOfOurHearts]

Is it too late to see SGDQ 2014

[@JayMoyles]

"Comso's Channel"

[@mahilo3550]

The weird guy on the left looks like he's on dope and seems to like catching flies in his mouth a lot.

[@Swamplord]

Well aren't you a peach? That's Blueglass, he is a great guy and supports SDA greatly. Your comment is useless.

[@atenakehnaton3965]

Is Cosmo ill or just thin?

[@Cjx0r]

is that runnerguy?

[@windupredravenpharrow2059]

The guy reading off donations sadly ruined a lot of this video flapping his gums during the most stressful moments of the run.

[@JumerProductions828]

Is that Mirrored on Cosmo's Right?

[@Superguyinthecorner]

On cosmo's right is Blueglass AKA YSG. He speedruns Ecco the Dolphin

[@yessicalinda11]

I finished in 20 minutes

[@lunagryn]

Teh urn ;-;

[@KeiichiO]

Seriously, what was going through the minds of the developers when they decided to implement motorcycle-riding skeletons, and chainsaw-equipped Frankenstein's monsters in a game that's supposed to take place in 18th century Transylvania??

[@rofyle]

Really? You don't think Frankenstein actually existed, do you? Or that skeletons really got up and walked around?

[@KeiichiO]

rofyle Did I ever say anything that made it appear that I believed those things? No.

[@rofyle]

Rinku Starr Then why fret about a chainsaw which also did not exist? It's like complaining about the historical inaccuracy of the teenage mutant ninja turtle's outfits. Really? You mean, as opposed to the fact they're walking, talking turtles? Shut up, man. Read a Harry Turtledove book and just shut the heck up. It's horror fantasy. Inaccuracies are allowed.

[@KeiichiO]

rofyle Uhhhh, no. I'm not fretting about "historical inaccuracies". I'm stating that skeletons riding motercycles and chainsaw-wielding Frankenstein's monster's are ridiculous enemies in a Castlevania game.

[@rofyle]

Rinku Starr As opposed to flea men, flying Medusa heads, and walking reptiles. Whatever.

[@losbanosmonkey]

You died in the castle.. this speed run is over lol..

[@erik878]

This games groovy, I like Reinhardt better hes cool

[@DrugoTehDinosauro]

anyone speedrun half life this year?

[@Radman1889]

Not at SGDQ. They're scheduled to run both Half-Life AND Half-Life 2 at AGDQ.

[@DrugoTehDinosauro]

oh ty :3

[@c0m4g1bb]

Cosmo used to be my nigga

[@MAYOFORCE]

This game really looks like a lot of wasted potential.

[@MAYOFORCE]

It has great atmosphere and some of my favorite music in the series. The game itself seems like a dream come true to me that seems to be a mix of the classicvanias and metroidvanias, and Carrie is adorable as hell. I hadn't played it myself, but I've heard very mixed opinions about it, and you have to admit some of the design choices they had were a bit baffling, like as in if they just threw them in and hoped it would work, such as the bomb puzzle and the randomized health of the skeletons. Stop your fowl language, nobody has played everything you know.

[@walterpisante]

booboo w2omit

[@Yukinari2007]

And then Cosmo deleted his fantastic carrie run on his own channel cause hes lost control of his life and decided that becoming a girl would solve his apparent mental breakdowns.

[@UsingGorillaLogic]

So shenanigans ensued?

[@Seriona1]

He effectively became a she and now resulted herself to begging for money. Last I heard, Cosmo was taking hardcore drugs to chemically turn into a girl that could very real kill him.

[@pt4958]

Lol

[@niespeludo]

This is the story of a lot of transexuals and homosexual people. Not all of them are in it by conviction, but rather by lack of coherence between what happens in their life and what they expect. Games are a form of escapism, changing gender is a huge leap, but for many it is a major show of escapism as well.

[@fernandotorres2169]

in castle wall you died a lot but except for that you play this game very well but i can clear the castle wall faster than you

[@VoxNerdula]

cosmo was also supposed to make a run of pokemon stadium during this sgdq but he had to go to the hospital cause he was having butt sex with siglemic and got a TON of poop crammed up his urethra.

[@MiddleClasshole77]

that's why you should always wipe

[@ImperatorZed]

No... duuude... noooOo...

[@calvin6314]

For real?

[@Jbayz]

This guy looks exactly like the kind of weirdo that would speedrun castlevania 64 lol

[@anthonyalaimo5087]

Damn look at all those nerds... tight game though

[@mar3oner315]

anthony alaimo says the nerd watching a bunch of nerds watch a nerd do a castlevania 64 speedrun

[@strocat25]

god damn did castlevania 64 suck.. it coulda been soo damn good too.. if mario 64 was as good as it is than castlevania 64 COULD HAVE been amazing!

[@IRNatman]

Legacy of Darkness was much better. :)

[@markwooten9759]

Horrible games done quick

[@DaedalosC9]

Horrible? this is Castlevania 64, not a Zelda from N64

[@markwooten9759]

somacruzfirm The Zelda games from the N64 were great, but Castlevania was not meant for 3D.

[@DaedalosC9]

Mark Wooten not sure on how fan of the Castlevania Saga are u and i know there are divided opinions about the 64vanias but this one and Legacy are the most true to the classic turned into 3D Castlevanias ever made (exceptuating the change from hearts to crystals that were intended for possible plot with an eliminated character/boss from the tower of sorcery) Also the team behind 64vanias had even more plans for the game but sadly Konami pushed too much on the deadlines and many of the original ideas were taken out

[@markwooten9759]

somacruzfirm I mean Castlevania is not as good in 3D

[@DaedalosC9]

Mark Wooten Not as good is really different from "horrible" : / What is horrible is to look for stones that u can change for more stones in order to get... yeah more stones (Zelda the Minish Cap)

[@ztoxtube]

The only sequel more disappointing than Mario 64.

[@TheLilFid]

Such a boring game !!!

[@fastrun14]

Yay, more shitty game speed runs!

[@cvdeath]

It actually isn't a half bad game. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@Iliek]

RIP Cosmo
