I have always had mixed feelings about speed runs. While they are cool to watch with amazement at the speed and precision require to accomplishment such a feat, I also have to wonder how many other great games these people miss out on all because they want that perfect time. Speeding through a game kind of defeats the purpose. How can you enjoy a video game when all you are aiming for is to get through it as fast as possible? It would be like fast forwarding through The Godfather or speed reading The Divine Comedy. It just makes hardly any sense at all.
Well, enough with my mini rant about speed runs. What are your opinions on them?
