Have you ever wondered why no one speedruns the James Bond video game adaptation of "The World is Not Enough", while Goldeneye is such a popular speedgame? The story isn't all that simple, and takes us on a winding odyssey of recorded speedruns, broken strategies and lost VHS tapes. Sit back, get comfy, and enjoy this fireside story!
