5. Contra Speedrun:

Another classic speed run from a game that got a lot of us into it. Gamer, Evilaj2010 did a Contra speed run in 2008 and actually had a pretty good run of it. This remake of the original Contra title has some updates graphics but all the same great fun that Contra has always had.  This gamer really puts some effort into this as they move quickly. They do die a few times which is going to cause a few problems, but in the end the time that he lost wasn’t all that much.

A game that would take my friends and I hours to play through, this gamer was able to do in well under 10 minutes. I’d be angry if I weren’t so damned impressed and it all happened in 5:43.
