  1. Leaving this to myself for recommendations of runs to watch/rewatch. First time I've watched this much of GDQ ever, and very happy I did. May look into going to an event in the future, SGDQ or even next AGDQ now that it's moving out of snowy Pittsburgh
  2.  
  3. Pokemon Legends ZA: 8/10 - very solid run, interesting seeing it with Chikorita instead of Totodile as usual. honestly is Chikorita worth trying out for rank F?
  4. Mario Kart World: 9/10 - great run and showcase
  5. Animal Crossing City Folk: 10/10 - very comfy and relaxing run, went over estimate but 100% worth it
  6. American Truck Simulator: 11/10 - funniest AGDQ run, bar none
  7. Richard Burns Rally: 9/10 - very impressive and exciting rally, whether or not you consider the context of the run going right after the comedy fest of truck sim
  8. Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver: 8/10 - great to see HGSS back in GDQ, quite a few problems during the run, some self-inflicted and some due to game difficulty
  9. Mario Kart 64: 11/10 - extremely competitive racing and insane play-by-play. honestly felt like a sport event
  10. Donkey Kong 64 Randomizer: 9/10 - very fun race, awkward to hide unseen info from Keiper at first but struck a good balance
  11. Adventures of Yogi Bear: 7/10 - not the best run of Awful Block but a great kickoff at least
  12. Egg: 10/10 - egg
  13. That's a Cow: 10/10 - moo
  14. The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess: 9/10 - one of the best overall game showcases
  15. maimai DX PRiSM PLUS: 9/10 - imo the best overall gameplay this AGDQ, commentary is a bit heavy though
  16. Clair Obscur Expedition 33: 10/10 - GOTY 2025 flexes how good of a game it is, also amazing showcase/race of an incredibly difficult game
  17. Lies of P: 9/10 - great showcase of the game and difficulty, including for people who don't understand anything about the game like me
  18. Super Mario Galaxy: 9/10 - very impressive run, great commentary throughout
  19. Donkey Kong Bananza: 10/10 - awesome run of a hilariously broken game
  20. Super Mario 64: 11/10 - comedic relay with impressive gameplay from runners of all levels
  21. The Legend of Zelda Wind Waker: 8/10 - ACE explanation was too difficult and long-winded to go into detail for the actual run, but great showcase afterwards
  22. Hollow Knight Silksong: 11/10 - great game, great run. I'd go so far to say it's a celebration of everything good about GDQ and speedrunning
  23. Pokemon Emerald: 1/10 - not my flavor. giving it a point for doing what a finale needs to do: drum up hype and raise funds for charity
