How to beat The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess in under 6 hours.

xsynergyx | June 04, 2007 | News | Wii

Who said that'd we'd get over 50 hours of gameplay into our The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess game for the Wii? That guy's a liar. Or at least someone has proven that he can finish it in five and a half hours. Who said this? Daniel "Jiano" Hart to be exact. Can you do it? Try it for yourself and get a challenge. To watch a little video, go to the source.

Time flies when you're having fun; epic adventures end like it never happened. We were promised more than 50 hours of gameplay with TheLegend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess, but that could only mean so much. Daniel "Jiano" Hart has proven that Link's endeavors can only last around five and a half hours.

At Speed Demos Archive where time is of the essence (and Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is beaten in mere minutes at European Extreme difficulty) Hart was the first to do a Zelda speed run. The hero claims that the forces of good have joined him in his mission to defeat Ganon just in time for dinner.

Hart admitted himself that the run could be better. Watching the videos would show some of his errors that could've shaved a few minutes from the record. You think you're up for the challenge? Check out the videos at the Read link below.

Here's the first segment of his valiant effort:

I never could beat games so quickly like some of these people can. Beating Zelda Twilight Princess in under 6 hours is crazy! But I don't really mind though since I prefer to enjoy the games rather then rush through them.

It probably took this person 100hrs of training to be able to beat the game so quickly, so I guess 50hrs of gameplay is rather conservative then .

Under 6 hours!? Seriously mega wow, that is an awesome achievement. He must have been practising since it was first released. Seriously.. Took me like 30 odd hours.

He probably also used hacks and stuff to do it. But 6 hours is something I wouldn't be able to do.

That's amazing, Guiness record time, haha. I spent about 60 hours on TP...6 hours just won't be enjoyable for me.

I dont think its his first time playing the game when he completed the game under 6 hours. I wonder how many hrs he spend playing and completing it before achieving that..

I agree with earlimoon. He's probably beat the game at least five times by now to memorize where to go and what to do.

That's insane. It took ages to beat that game, and I didn't like when it was over. I don't think I could do it in under 6 hours. @___@

Holy crap!

6 hours is insanely fast.

I'm still having trouble beating my own record at 38 hours.

I beat it the first time around in about 45 hours and there were some part I thought I flew through. This guy is another one of those wannabe cools that ruin the likes of Mario World 3 for me because they're 137432x better at it. =(

There is no way playing that fast is enjoyable. I think I'll stick to actually playing my games, thanks.

Woaaa. That's insane! Their must be some sort of fault, you spend like 5 or so hours just walking, and theirs the scenes, and the dungeons. But he did it, I'm impressed.
