“Okay. Welcome to an epic.”

No, like seriously, once a year I sit down and I watch The Lets Play To End All Lets Plays.

In 2008, on the SomethingAwful forums (arguably one of the birthplaces of LPs), pokecapn and his friends rented Sonic the Hedgehog 2006, got together, and played the entire game from start to finish in one sitting.

If you are unaware, Sonic 06 is three full acts and a finale. It took them 20 hours.

Two hours of which were loading screens.

The full playlist is on Youtube. It has its own TV Tropes page. It was an feat of such strength and determination, there should be sagas sung about it.

… I should do my rewatch soon. Maybe January. /nods

((ETA: Note that I haven’t sat and watched this in about a year. I cannot provide content warnings. Viewer beware.))

Shout out to the two hours of attempts of beating End of the World, where they literally went through the five stages of grief.
