100% Speedrun of Skyward Sword Clocks in at 8:35:28, New World Record

Gotta go fast!

I’ve always admired speedrunners. Delving into a game’s code to learn the intricacies and behind-the-scenes shortcuts to reach completion is an incredible feat, and it blows my mind when someone can beat a game in three hours, when it took me over fifty on my playthrough. Add Twitch user Bob_Loblaw_Law to that list of people I admire, not only for having an awesome Arrested Development name, but also for completing a 100% run of Skyward Sword in only eight hours, thirty-five minutes, and twenty-eight seconds. That’s a new world record.

Although the actual speedrun is a tad old now, it’s still an incredible feat to watch. Check it out above.
