The couch is absolutely amazing on this run. Keiper losing faith in the couch as they were telling him the Flying Battery 1 strat was as intended was hilarious. GGs to TDS and thank you to everyone on the couch for making this such a great run!
Watching someone do Blue Sphere backwards is like being in the passenger seat of a car where the driver is going 40 MPH BACKWARDS maneuvering busy streets. I'm grabbing onto the nearest object for stability.
I'll never get tired of watch speedrun of this game. it's fast paced, very technical and executional, very little amount of RNG too. Especially in marathon like this seeing the runner improvise is always so impressive. Commentary is great, plus Argick on the couch is also top tier. My favorite run so far this SGDQ!
29:46 “Hydrocity is not a word.” Well, ‘Junglira’ isn’t a word either, but there is no debate on how to pronounce the name for Meta Junglira from Sonic Triple Trouble (afaik).
Best Character - Knuckles. Best music in S3&K - easily Ice Cap 1. Shame in Origins version, they replaced it. Best music in Sonic Universe? A tie between Scrap Brain 1 on Master System Sonic 1. And Sand Hill on Sonic Adventure 1.
And PS. Fantastic run. The blue spheres bonus rounds always terrify me cos the digital versions have lag. And my brain is hardwired to how the megadrive / genesis pad is inputted.
i enjoy this game. my favorite charater is whisper (however i only resently found out about them as i started the comics i dont think they are in any of the main series games)
Finding out Hydro City has a canon Swedish name has made me decide to forever call it Vatten Staden (Btw, Mr. Game and Shout did a fairly good job pronouncing it, tho it came out more German than Swedish lol)
With the whole Katakana using Ro instead of Ra Velocity in Katakana also uses Ro, so it's Hydrocity. As ヴェロシティ is the Katakana for velocity and ハイドロシティ is hydrocity. If it was hydro city they could've used water language or put a space, or used the same character they use for cities. They did not. It is Hydrocity. The localization teams of all those european countries are just wrong. The most likely answer is that both Hydrocity as a pun on velocity and as a pun on hydro city is the intent.

Look, I'm a simple man. I see a new S3&K run? I'm clickin'.

Thank you!
Props for a Super Tails run of S3&K. My boy doesn't get remotely as much love as Sonic or Knuckles.
How many times have you seen Knuckles in GDQ S3&K runs? :D

Argick has an AMAZING media voice. Great stuff
Jumping inbetween red spheres in special stage is crazy
Argick commentating a Sonic run, what more could you ask for
Those special stages stress me out already, watching that madness happen was a lesson in my brain screaming
This was great. All the commentary was just right. What a fun one!
Genuinely entertaining all around with impressive tricks.
I see bubble shield! Bwaoh!
It's always good to see S3&K again. I really haven't played it in a while...
Watching the blue spheres levels is stressful, this dude knows his game well.
Awesome run, awesome couch, emerald stages done backwards is really impressive if not mindblowing!
55:26 I'm dying 😂 "This is Red-eye" "Why is he called Red-eye?" "Cause he's got a red eye"
Argick energy!!

Cannae really compare the debates over a name fae s3&k and one fae triple trouble though either
@@Universum who's fae
I remember paying £59.99 for this game when it came out. The extra paper rounds and car washing was totally worth it 👌
The only thing better than top-notch couch commentary is top-notch commentary with a lovely accent. I could listen to Argick talk all day ❤️
ADMIN HE'S DOING IT BACKWARDS
GGG nice stream boi. I always love seeing S3&K speedruns.
HELL YEAH! TAILS RUN! My boi finally getting the chance to shine.
"Flicky Army of Death"
Johnny reference spotted
That review is an iconic part of early Sonic fandom. Nothing like that SSJ3 reference animation.
I instantly thought of Johnny when I heard that too lol
I normally don’t watch speedruns, but this was really entertaining, great job. Also tails is the best Sonic character
That was SUCH a cool run
glad the run went great, tsd!!
THE LEGEND

Clouds on the planet in Death Egg Act2 look like two dogs fighting.
Beautiful Lava Reef!
Wow I’m impressed!!!!
where's that DAMN fourth chaos emerald?!
34:46 you're welcome
ORKAL cataloged and demonstrated the vast majority of the bugs in s3&k quite some time ago, glad to see some of them still being exploited.
arf arf arf arf arf arf arf
34:45 WTH Argick i'm dying haha
i enjoy this game. my favorite charater is whisper (however i only resently found out about them as i started the comics i dont think they are in any of the main series games)
Any run with Argick running or on the couch is a must watch

@@Shroom-Mage I mean they literally are though.
Extremely loud incorrect buzzer
Sound defense :D gg
Casino Zone is #1 for me. I think Chemical Zone second and Ancient Ruins third. SEAL NOISES!
Is anybody else incapable of reading Hydrocity without the same pronunciation as 'Atrocity?' I can't read it any other way since I saw Megamind.
I couldn't get all emeralds too hard
Fun fact: it's spelled Hy-drocity. It's a play on atrocity because the level is atrocious. (Mic drop)
hydro-city
So no doomsday with tails? Sad
S3+K; except no Sonic or Knuckles
TSD is my goat
Hey nice, they're saying Hydrocity correctly!
