6

Awesome Games Done Quick is back for just one more day! It's been a wild week of virtual speedruns from across the ages of gaming, but today is the last day of this wonderful event. The mission has remained the same throughout the week. It's been to blaze through some of the most recognizable games of the past and present in front of a worldwide audience on Twitch and do so for charity.

Awesome Games Done Quick 2023 Online takes place from the homes of many of the world's best runners. GDQ has raised more than $1.5 million for the Prevent Cancer Foundation with just one day left to go. Shacknews will be watching all day and we'll continue to highlight the noteworthy runs worth watching.

Before we get to the schedule, let's look at a highlight from Day 6. It's Stepmania, baby!

You can watch all of the action in the embed below!

7:14PM - Pokemon Legends: Arceus

We've seen good Pokemon runs in GDQ history, but we especially look forward to seeing of the first mainline runs of Pokemon Legends: Arceus, a game that totally changed the series formula for the better. Let's watch as halquery looks to summon All Lords in 2 hours and 45 minutes, while rallying the GDQ viewers towards another event donation record.

10:39PM - Super Mario Bros. 3

We're used to seeing mitchflowerpower work GDQ events, but it's a rare treat to see him with the final game slot. Watch the legend himself look to finish Nintendo's all-time great game in just under an hour and hopefully spur one last burst of donations.

Ozzie has been playing video games since picking up his first NES controller at age 5. He has been into games ever since, only briefly stepping away during his college years. But he was pulled back in after spending years in QA circles for both THQ and Activision, mostly spending time helping to push forward the Guitar Hero series at its peak. Ozzie has become a big fan of platformers, puzzle games, shooters, and RPGs, just to name a few genres, but he’s also a huge sucker for anything with a good, compelling narrative behind it. Because what are video games if you can't enjoy a good story with a fresh Cherry Coke?

      I always love AGDQ and it is the only time I ever watch anything on Twitch. I'm old and dumb I guess.

      But I really, really don't understand Twitch. The chat makes no sense to me. The interface feels like such a train wreck. And just streaming in general, I don't ... yeah I don't get it.

      But I like AGDQ because the charity aspect and there are some really skillful things on display.

        Chat being a trainwreck is basically the meme. Multiple memes, really. There are stories behind many of the silly emotes.
