I know this is ZOMG FAKE, but its still awesome to watch

Megaman X1 + X2 speed run (http://bisqwit.iki.fi/nesvideos/movies.cgi?id=380)

Yes, they're both played at once. With the same controller.

That is definitely nuts, but I can see how it's doable. For instance, have "X"a run against a wall until "X"b is into the position you want, and keep fine-tuning till you have it right, then continue. I haven't even watched it yet and I can guess how it was done.

Though doing this with fast speed is crazy.

How do you know it's fake? Besides the fact that it takes a lot of skill...

because it was obviously done on an emulator with a gratuitous use of save states

These are called "tool assisted" videos, therefore it is no discredit to the creator of the video that they used save states, as it is assumed they would. There is still skill, coordination, and patience involved in the creation of such a video.

Yes, my retort wasn't exactly along the right lines. What I meant really was: It's not fake.

It's not real either.
