Guys who played Marathon used to do that, they'd run through a level, firing no shots, and taking no hits. You could get right past the enemies and complete the level without them having time to get you. Weird.

I do the opposite. It took me years to beat Zelda TOoT. I call it enjoying the game, I'm super Elite.

I'm watching the entire HL2 speed run. Totally wicked. Amazing the tricks this guy pulls.

Tool assisted runs are more fun to watch though they require very different skills (they don't require reflexes, for example, but they require a LOT of precision and patience).
