This is exactly the kind of commentary I love to see on speedrunning charity streams. Great video quality as well! Sometimes it's really unwatchable on KZread channels

I remember watching Sorix run Halo 3 at this event years ago. Absolutely one of the best and memorable runs. Happy to see him running Halo 2!

such a dead crowd. that one guy in the front was on his phone the whole time, why even come to the event??

That Johnson multiplying trick was AMAZING!!! I've been following the Halo 2 speed running community for many years and there's always new tricks comming out or glitches being discovered, it never gets boring.

this european audience could not seem more bored 😂

I remember my "monopolized" achievement run 3 years ago man. Halo 2 was absolutely Painful but it was such an accomplishment and meaningful to me since Halo 2 was originally the first game I've ever played and to this day Halo remained as my fav Franchise :) Your run was incredible!

At 1:37, the way the runner cleared that room of covenant was a thing of beauty! Laser focus! 💪💯

hell yea !!!!!

Love the commentary on this one man. I don’t know much about Halo 2 and I was able to follow/appreciate the beauty of the run. Great job.

the commentary was legendary

Aahhhhh a classic speedrun like the good ol days

It took me an hour and a half to get through the first level on legendary LOL

@12:28 That Halo theme chorus was EPIC

12:58 The fact that sorix harmonized perfectly was super impressive!

My all time favorite Halo! Great Run. Great Video.

This is the most difficult/frustrating campaign on legendary imo, especially without knowing these skips. Crazy to watch them being done so easily. Good run!

Yea hell !!!!!

fun watch, awesome tricks and commentary

This was awesome. Currently doing my Halo 2 MCC speedrun achievement. So true about the barriers. Far too many in the later games 😂

One of the coolest speedruns I've ever seen. This game was my childhood

I love speed runs. There’s a few games I’d love to speed run during this charity. I just need to finish routing and practice ☹️

Fish moment was an omen from the speedrunning gods that this run was blessed

Sorix such as beast!

They need Jeb Bush on the couch so that he can tell the crowd “plz clap”

Goddamn I was looking away for a while and got back at 19:30 and thought for sure the dude next to runner was holding a child and had me questioning if he'd always been holding one.

Super great commentary!

The way the announcer sang the Halo theme made me think of Saint Nick; he just had to add a warm "Merry Christmas!" at the end to sell that image.

Love the 4K resolution!! Great bitrate and quality :)))

Beating Halo 2 on Legendary is a pain in the ass, mad respect for that run!

awesome

Amazing game and amazing 4k quality

Nice save lol 6:05

halo speedruns (all games) are some of hte most technical and impressive in the world. They are just filled with "how tf does anyone even come up with this in a thousand years" moments

Sorix doesn’t even need the extra guy on stage

Wow! My dude 🎉🎉🎉

Can’t say how crazy it is to see these tricks being pulled off like this. Amazing run! Frankly one of the craziest runs in speed runs. So many spots this run can just die. So many scary places to die. Each enemy is something to think about because each enemy can kill you in a few seconds. There is a lot of spots to chill, but most of the run is high octane combat and movement. He makes it look so easy!! Not to mention Jerv beating this deathless is just wild. I can’t understate enough how that might be the hardest gaming challenge out there and he will probably be the only one to do it in the foreseeable future. (At least until new tech is discovered)

Halo 2 on leg, was the hardest game I played.

The sniper let him have the wrath😂

That crowd has no soul

I wonder if they know that was the real marty that made the sound track that asked them to sing the theme

I can’t believe someone actually did a run like this but it’s was a 0 damage

Halo 2 legendary… the bane of my existence

Almost as good as Cody Miller!!! 👌😂

On sacred icon there's also little repair drones that fly around and eventually will open the first piston for you using their little laser as a hint on how to open it. You can also melee them.

ESA can we see a Halo trifecta in the future? :D Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3

This can't be AGDQ they banned fun and jokes. I am glad there is a new marathon for speedruns out there!

Guy with the glasses next to him said nothing, so strange.

I would like to think that it is 100% canon that Tartarus gets his ass kicked by the arbiter, Johnson, a bunch of elites, Johnson, Johnson, and their slightly less competent cousin, Johnson.

Man that crowd was ass! I feel so bad for you man, no hype at all

32:35 what??

Love how theres one person on camera dead center just slouching like melted ice cream and on their phone, and just to the left is a group just goofing around. Some peoples minds never left the high school classroom

Couldn’t you just keep the sword from outskirts and sword fly through metropolis almost entirely?

Nice run, kinda dead crowd though.

oh no, CrImGe

whats the point of playing halo on a pc but with a controller?

Horrible crowd... was a great run

surprised theres not comments from babies claiming this is cheating lol

in this video they clearly have it OFF due to input latency. Thus causing the output to tear in accordance with the game's video output settings.
