Scroll down this page for information on this video, this game, and this run. Reading about the game before you watch the video may help you understand it better.
The purpose of this Rabbit Run is not to beat the level as quickly as possible, it’s to show a lot of the cool weapons in the game. I could have played the whole battle with a machine gun, but that’s not interesting.
Showing the controller on the screen was a bit of an experiment. This is NOT something I’m going to do for every video. I just did it in this case because, well, there are a lot of controls for Snowblind, but also because I was using a lot of the controls. The whole point of this run was to show off as many different weapons as I could, so I was constantly switching.
If you think it’s interesting, let me know, and maybe I’ll do it again with another game if it makes sense.
About the controls: It’s possible to bring up a menu to switch weapons, but that pauses the game and really takes you out of the action. The “quick” way of switching is to use the d-pad. UP/DOWN cycles guns, LEFT cycles through Augmentations (things like invisibility, abbreviated as “AUG” below), RIGHT cycles grenades.

Probably everyone who’s ever played Donkey Konga has had the idea to play more than one bongo at once. I bet a lot of people have tried it. I figured I could do it, and it would make a good video. I realize this is nothing compared to a Pop’n Music video, but keep in mind that DK wasn’t designed for this. In this video I play the Pokemon Theme in Quartet Mode (4-player) by myself, and get four full combos.
This is a video of me playing the KISS song Strutter (expert) on the Guitar Hero II demo. I did this so people (who haven’t bought the demo) could see what expert looks like. It has a lot of three-button-chords, which are new to GH2. At the same time, I decided to show the live-action part of it (frets/strum on the plastic guitar), and put it at the top of the video. I flipped the video so it’s a mirror image, that way the colors match up, making it easier to follow along.
