So, a bunch of pimply faced white guys are attempting to beat 4 Zelda games in 48 hours.  The four of them are

Ocarina of Time (beat)
Majora's Mask (playing)
Wind Waker
Twilight Princess

They started at 5pm CST friday and hope to finish at 5pm CST sunday.  They have a live camera feed and are updating their blogs and talking shit on camera.  It's pretty boring but I think the record for longest webcast is 30 something hours so these guys might break world record.

This is... quite unhealthy, to say the least. I guess if they are world-class speedrunners or manage to have perfect scheduling, it could be done without them losing their minds.

I honestly probably could not last four hours without breaks.

I can beat Ocarina, Majora, and Wind Waker in under 10 hours (each, not all at once i'm not fucking super man) but fuuuuck... Twilight Princess is going to kill them because that game is nothing but STORY FILLER. 

I hope their wii-motes run out of batteries as they scramble to buy new ones...

There is no way. Zelda has too much non-skippable story!

Seriously though, I think they'll get very close... It's going to be a good one.

Guess they shoulda practiced and learnt the glitches before atempting. The speedrun for oot is like 2 and a half hours. (and most likely similar for the others), so I guess they could aim to do it around that time.

i don't know man, just the fact that they're streaming it makes me feel like they're trying to prove something.  LOOK AT US BEAT THESE GAMES THAT YOU'VE ALL BEATEN BEFORE... BUT IN 48 HOURS.  i mean who really wants to watch someone play fucking zelda for two days straight?  that's boring dude.

This would be cooler if they actually had a stream of the game, so you could actually see what's going on.

There is no way they will be able to beat Twilight Princess after they finish the other three unless they are going MEGASPEED on those ones. It is just simply too long.

I'd be far more impressed if they were playing Zelda 2.  That game is a real bitch.

They do? It's in the first post? :/ I mean yeah it isn't a direct feed of the TV but you can easily see where they are.

Right now they are fighting poes in MM.
