  • In this video, I talk about the history of CE speedrunning and how records changed over time and different tricks/strats were developed. I get comments all the time asking, "how did someone find this stuff???" so if you've ever wondered that, this video is for you.

      @GibboYouTube 6 месяцев назад +53

      He was a bit of a fraud, but undoubtedly one of the most convincing and legendary fraudsters in halo speedrunning. I remember seeing him in the Guinness book of records many years ago, before he was exposed. I feel he inspired a lot of people to pursue halo speedruns and for that I’m sure it makes up for his sectioned (but pretend full run 😂) speedruns

    I used to speedrun CE Legendary like 10 years ago. The highest I got was #6 on the FG haloruns leaderboard and the time was like 1:51:xx or something. I was never any good but goatrope called me "rookie of the year" which is one of my proudest gaming accomplishments LOL
    Insane that times are getting close to being south of an hour. I still go back and do the old routes on CE for fun sometimes. Such a satisfying game.

  • @thebilliestsilly

    Something I wanna compliment that I don't see many people focus on is the audio mixing, perfect audio balance between music and narration (as well as good mic quality) does so much to boost a video's apparent quality and I feel like it gets taken for granted until someone does it really badly, so great job on that front as well

    Thank you for including the very first speedrun competition in your video. I remember buying a special video card that could record input from the xbox just for this competition. It was a surprise to see this and remind myself of those perfect days playing Halo all day after school. There was nothing impressive in my run compared to modern attempts, but I was a kid who had played that level so much in prep for the contest that my body started shaking during the parts I knew could destroy a run. You actually had nice things to say about my video, I was worried you'd tear it apart.
    Thank you :)

    Really enjoyed this vid! My only criticism was in when you were describing updated times for old records, it was basically impossible to remember what the old record was, so I had no idea how much of an improvement had been made. Having the old time and date next to the new number would be useful, or even some kind of split as to how much time exactly was saved.

    This is awesome. It was cool to see some of the faces behind the names of the achievements. Please do another video like this for Halo 2. Both CE and 2 are so much fun to watch watch due to the amount of game breaking that goes on. I'm not much of a speed runner myself, but I learnt a few strats to get the the Goat Roped and Monopolized achievements, which was a lot of fun to do.

Halo was a pivotal game for me and and there were a lot of late nights spent in a LAN party with friends playing CE (and split screen Goldeneye, prior to that). I'm still working on the MCC part time achievements and every time I see a video like this it gives me the itch to go back and start playing again.

  • @CMCFLYYY

    Excellent stuff, watched a few others before this (Halo 5, 4 campaigns ) but this one earned a sub.
    Suggestion for future content. This was excellent to get the full CE speedrunning timeline, but it was SO much info at once and difficult to track progress on each level over time.
    It could be fun to see each level get its own video, so all the skips and tricks discovered for each level can be covered chronologically instead of all levels at once.
