Chasing an achievement is what showed us that there was absolutely no toxicity between these gamers. If people came together and worked together to chase down an achievement as great as this one, the majority of all gaming communities would feel amazing to be around. These guys all welcomed each other to succeeding, they congratulated each other, cheered each other on and hyped up one of the greatest things to ever happen. Passion on a level that cannot be touched. Perhaps I am not interested to play these games at all, and that’s ok! But, I am appreciative of the level of positivity these lads displayed for us, and I really enjoy seeing others succeed, that, I am thankful for. We need more personalities like this everywhere. The kind of people who celebrate success together on a competitive level.

It seems kind of like when you are immersed in a language from birth, getting fluent in it is effortless because your brain is just living it and growing around it. Kids these days are born into technology-rich settings where getting as good as you can at a video game as a hobby is no longer seen as a "waste of time" because even some older folks know what e-sports are.

I think it will be a while before people get that far. They have to clear another hundred levels under increasingly difficult restrictions, plus 800 lines on level 235. Some of the restrictions look really difficult to pull off individually, let alone stringing a hundred of them together into a single run. Someday, though.

That's because there really are no rivals in attempting to push a game to its limits. It is a MASSIVE community effort, Scuti is simply the one that made that one final push to finally getting the killscreen. Not to diminish his achievement, though - it is _insanely_ impressive. I just wanted to point out that this wasn't a competition to see who could beat the game first, but a huge collaborative effort to try to even beat the game in the first place

At the end of the day, these kinds of competitions are primarily about personal improvement, rather than direct competition. The only way to get good at this kind of thing is to set your number one opponent as YOURSELF. You see this in traditional sports at the highest level as well, like running and swimming. There's a famous video of someone who just set a world record in swimming look up at the board, see that the swimmer in the lane next to him set a personal best, and celebrated their improvement as well.

It's also symbolic that the last level right before the rebirth screen turns to pure crimson red. Sort of feels otherworldly/heavenly to me like once you pass through this last level on a real NES a portal will open up to somewhere. Heck maybe a tetris genie will pop out and grant you 3 wishes.

But everyone that has dabbled in gaming since the late 80's and early 90s knows where your joy came from. We've all been there.. Im not on my friends level, but I still remember how I felt when beating my Wolverine game on my PS3. It was insane. And i used to have a Tetris and Pong clone on my Amiga 600 so i remember the old 8 bit games too. Cant. Wait to see what you'll do next regarding Tetris. Cheers from Denmark. 😏

It was so touching when he said “I’m going to go on” when he missed his first chance. Some people might immediately give up, get mad, or let their feelings distract them. Yet he stayed so calm. Even during the second miss he stayed calm and just went with the moment. Such a good attitude to live by. Can’t find the original quote but here’s a close one: “Our anxiety does not come from thinking about the future, but from wanting to control it.” He relaxed and let the uncontrollable take over, and just focused on playing the game to his best.

Anyways what I was arguing is that speed running this game does not provide with anything concrete or positive that I personally know of. So yeah, same goes for watching football, it's not that I find that any better than this Tetris thing. But at least there is a difference with football cause if you practice it then you actually improve physically in ways that are measurable. Your body does change in a positive way. It's not the same for Tetris, where playing or watching is pretty much the same level of usefulness, which is low imho.
