Everyone’s favourite gymnastics winner is back in this remake of the classic console game. This time the Prince of Persia accidentally unleashes the Sands of Time, turning everyone except him, an evil Vizier and a mysterious girl named Farah into zombies. The Sands also gave the Prince a few new unexpected powers, like the ability to walk through walls and repeatedly jump underneath platforms.

This run features an impressive improvement of 6 minutes over the preceding movie.

- Contains speed/entertainment tradeoffs
- Aims for in-game time instead of real-time
- Heavy luck manipulation
- Uses hardest difficulty
- Starts from a saved state or SRAM
Metal Gear Solid is one of the original breakthrough titles in the stealth gaming genre. Nobody told the author this however, as he steamrolls through Shadow Moses Island in record time with guns blazing. This run is played on the hardest difficulty and earns the "Big Boss" rank on completion.

- Aims for in-game time instead of real-time
- Demonstration
- Genre: Puzzle
Snood is a blatant rip-off of puzzle game inspired by Bust-a-Move/Puzzle Bobble with very similar gameplay; originally released for the PC, it has since been ported to several platforms.

This movie plays the time attack mode; you won't believe the author's luck as he clears them so quickly you will wonder what is going on.
