6. Super Metroid
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3QUO91JlIg If you've finished picking your jaw up off the floor at some of the previous entries, prepare to realise just how much of a non-geek you are when watching this clip. Filmed at a convention called 'Awesome Games Done Quick', this speed run may or may not be the fastest in Super Metroid history, but it is surely the most impressive. What's even more remarkable is that it's all played in front of a live crowd, all huge fans of the Metroid series, and therefore the pressure must have been pretty big for the dude holding the controller. This is one smooth run-through.
