Perfect Dark is a first-person shooter developed and published by Rareware for the Nintendo 64 in 2000. A spiritual successor to GoldenEye 007, it shares almost identical movement and similar mechanics to it, with a bigger emphasis on stealth.

Set in an alternate 2023 against the backdrop of an interstellar war between two alien races, the Maians and the Skedar, the player assumes the role of Joanna Dark, codenamed "Perfect Dark". She is an agent of the Carrington Institute, a secret organization funded by anonymous sources and dedicated to protecting the world. Through their highly trained operatives and special devices (gadgets), Carrington keeps an eye on terrorists, world powers, and strange happenings. The speed at which the dataDyne corporation has established itself through the development of new technologies is starting to worry the institute. So when Carrington receives a message from Dr. Caroll, a scientist wishing to escape dataDyne, they send their best agent, Joanna, to infiltrate the company headquarters.

alkamaass sets off to defeat the Skedar leader in record time. Please read the author's comments for more details.

Mighty Bomb Jack is a game where Jack goes to rescue his family from a pyramid. Along the way, he meets many enemies who start as mummies and change forms when they hit the ground. He also finds bomb-filled rooms at the end of each round, which work like warp rooms with a twist: you can warp ahead to the bomb room of the next round if the first lit bomb is the last bomb collected. Using this, the author warps past many rounds.

However, this movie aims for the best ending, which is obtained by freeing all the family members. This means that the authors avoid warping past some rounds in order to collect items. ktwo and SpaceColonizer improve the previous best ending TAS done on the North American release of the game by 0.62 seconds, thanks to better optimisation. Said release notably has different room solutions and different item locations, and generally has less obscure room solutions.

A Koopa's Revenge 2 is a Mario Flash fangame and the sequel to A Koopa's Revenge. It expands on concept of the villain's lackeys being the playable protagonists where it's not just Bowser and his minions getting revenge, but they're also fighting back against the forces of the evil Mario and his mustache twirling actions. This time, you can choose between three characters: a Koopa Troopa, a Shy Guy, and a Goomba, each having their own abilities. With that character, it's up to you to take down the comically evil Mario and his own minions.

This time, Potato achieves full completion (every level completed, all 75 Silver Coins collected, all Koopalings defeated, all 4 Switch Palaces pressed, bloodshed particles active, getting the Infinite 1-Up and Rush) without using any in-game cheat codes and defeats the true final boss as Shy Guy in record time.

PHOTOSENSITIVITY WARNING: There are instances of flashing lights throughout the movie, notably in the levels "Rainbow Tylenol", "THE LIGHTNING ROAD", "THE NIGHTMARE", "Death Moon" and "Problematic", which may cause epileptic seizures to those affected.

Luck manipulation vs leveling up. Luck manipulation wins.

"Those of you not familiar with this game will be disappointed by the anticlimactic ending. There appears to be an uber-weapon that casts an uber-spell that kills literally everything in the game in one hit, even the final boss. It's pretty lame, though you can't exactly blame mookish for poor game design." -xebra

WARNING: There are flashing lights during every enemy encounter which may cause epileptic seizures to those affected.

Nathan Graves is a vampire hunter trying to save his master, Morris, from the clutches of Dracula. Normally this would require collecting lots of spells and items as well as hours of leveling, but OgreSlayeR proves collectible card games passé by gathering almost none of the cards required for spells and blazing through the game at warp speed without regard to levels or his own safety.

This movie is about 1 minute improvement to the previous version by the same author, by the means of better playing precision, taking more damage, and other changes.

This movie is an 11 second improvement over the author's previous movie by skipping two more save rooms, heavier item abuse, and other minor changes.

Here is a TAS of the SNES version of Aladdin. The run abuses a trick with the parachute quite extensively to move faster than normal walking or jumping.

This movie is 3 seconds faster than the previous movie from an improved final boss fight.

Warpless Super Mario Bros. 2 – again more than half a minute faster than the previous movie by a different author. According to the authors, time was gained from optimized movements, different routes, different character selection, optimized battles and some new glitches.

For more information about some of the tricks used in this movie, check the Super Mario Bros. 2 tricks page.

Ever since Morimoto published his legendary movie in mid-2003, the players at TASVideos have repeatedly made it faster and faster!

This 96 frame improvement over the previous movie features a completely new route through Bowser's Palace, even more off-screen auto-scroller action and other technical improvements detailed in the authors' comments. Finally, Lord_Tom and Mitjitsu are proud to announce that the new run once again acquires 99+ lives magnificently.

Spider-Man/X-Men: Arcade's Revenge is an action platformer starring the iconic Marvel characters Spider-Man, Wolverine, Cyclops, Storm, and Gambit. After the X-Men get kidnapped by Arcade, Spider-Man must deactivate bombs, infiltrate the abandoned building where they were taken, and confront Arcade. From there, Arcade puts each hero to the test as they navigate through his bizarre "Murderworld" until Spider-Man can finally confront the madman head-on.

This infamous game was made by LJN, and although it might be better than many others from that label, it still has serious gameplay flaws that make it frustrating, let alone incredibly difficult. However, it works great for a TAS. Using careful precision and many exploits, the team of jaysmad and Brandon make it through this "Juggernaut" in less than 24 minutes. Please see the authors' notes for a detailed breakdown of the levels, a couple of glitches that were unused in the run, and a video of a camera hack for the Black Queen fight that mostly happened off-screen.

Please also check out the run for Wolverine, which is a NES game, also made by LJN, where most of Wolverine's gameplay came from.
