9 times out of 10 its because the JP games have less text, which cuts down their overall run time

Is there a reason they always seem to play imports?
Yeah. A lot of the time the text is way faster in the Japanese versions and it can save minutes off the time. I think in one of the big RPGs they did it saved like 40 minutes once.

There's also different glitches in various versions.

They play the JP golden eye because on the hardest difficulty it has some extra body armor in locations the US doesn't

That Quake run was nostalgia overload. I remember downloading in game demo files of various Quake speed runs back when Quake Done Quick started. Watching the action directly in game instead of in a video was so awesome.

Since I'm watching this at work I'd prefer not for my coworkers to think I'm watching gay ginger porn
