10 Superhuman Gaming Feats That Put Us All To Shame

3. Completing Resident Evil In Less Than 70 Minutes...With Just A Knife

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylFpo5VGrII The original Resident Evil is the hardest of the series, meaning that even skilled players will take 5-6 hours to rinse through it with good weaponry, but this player really took things to the next level. Not only did they manage to finish the game in 69 minutes, but they did so while using a knife for the entirety of the game, one of the most insane self-imposed conditions that anyone has set for their own playthrough ever. To beat the game in that time with the rocket launcher would be impressive, but to do so with the worst weapon in the game - which they use expertly to slash through the bosses while incurring mostly no damage - is absolutely, certifiably insane. The only concession (though one that sadly is cut from the end of the video) is that Jill uses the rocket launcher to finish off the Tyrant at the end of the game, but then the game forces you to do that, so there's no getting around it. Of all the gaming feats I've seen over the years, this is one that has stuck with me as immensely impressive and even a little inspiring.
