"Do not worry about those very dead people on the side of the road. They are very dead, so it's ok." That's a line that sounds like it's straight out of Portal.
I wonder if the actor tried to explain to them that the line wasn't written in proper English. And I wonder if the director glared at him and mouthed very slowly "Pepsi. For. TV. Game."
Pepsi executives: "This speedrun is great chance to promote our product to gamers!" theboyks: "I'm gonna try to dodge every Pepsi can." Pepso executives: "..."
almost every bad game on the planet is greatly helped when you make a speedrun category out of it DK64 is a buggy pile of shit? well that means any% is wild and fun, so let's flow with it horrible quirky game with a few notable bugs? that's your own personal meme category now, good luck
The best part of this was the recognition of the actor and his twitter feed blowing up after this. He acknowledged twice and changed his picture in commemoration.
Easily my favorite run of the whole event. The crowd interaction, the absurdity of the game, the skill in such a simple game, everything about this was awesome.
Nichole Hopper Can this be an incentive? If people will donate $4000 for a final fantasy character name I'm sure people would donate $5000 to GDQ to actually get Mike Butters on the couch for a run.
Pepsi is the powerup, Pepsi is the goal, Pepsi is the enemy, Pepsi is the hero, Pepsi is the cause and the cure. Pepsi is the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. Pepsi will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the Pepsi of life freely.
I'm so glad I stayed up a little later than usual and saw this entire run. This is probably one of the best runs I've ever seen, and I have a new love for Pepsiman.
Pepsi Co. could totally commission and publish a mobile game where you run and collect Pepsi cans, but I doubt they will ever recognize Pepsiman as their official mascot.
Great run by theboyks. Too bad I woke up RIGHT after this run ended. This game is actually really well known here in Indonesia, despite never being released anywhere outside of Japan. It was so much fun playing this game with friends back in the day.
Wow.. this game is very nostalgic for me and that final stage was hard as fuck. But seriously, the speed runs, the mascot, the narrative, the game itself, the crowd, the trivia and the donation is fucking awesome.... god damn this is a blast!!! So many good things happened in a single run I just can't help but feel really, really happy. Thank you
.... Holy City Escape from Sonic Adventure 2, Batman... Tell me I am not the only one that sees it during the skateboard then the pepsi can chasing you... And this came out before sonic adventure 2...
Man, I wish they'd kept the rest of the end where the crowd stuck around to stay hype for the Pepsiman theme song. But, still, it was an experience I'll never forget, a moment in time that defines me as a person, a sign that not all is lost in this world and that we are never truly alone. PEPSI ONLY MY CHOICE.
The runner says that there are certain levels that are difficult For me, EVERY level will be difficult as I wouldn't be able to restrain myself from laughing. Oh, Japan!
Vay be bir zamanlar okuldan kaçıp atari salonunda ne oynardım bu oyunu 20 sene sonra birden insanın karşısına çıkınca bir tuhaf oluyor eski günler canlandı aklımda
Great run. Ive played it these days. Crazy game but fun. The only little problem is this song repeating all he game, and at the end sticks in your head and soul.
I forgot how amazing this game was, and those epic cutscenes! XD Someone might want to update his IMDB page though, that's the one thing I don't think is listed. :P amazing run!
It's like this game took all the riding levels and running away from boulder levels from Crash Bandicoot, made an entire game around that and nothing else, and made the main character look 1000x more creepy
i fucking died when i saw pepsiman beating league of legends and overwatch in viewer count
years of speedrunning has brought us to this moment
We´ve come so far.... We cant top this moment in speedrun history
This is the hypest speedrun evaaaaar!!!
+Aldo Joel Watch the Jack and Dexter run
Three3DDD I have a lot of videos to watch :P
+Aldo Joel No, believe me. Its the best
Guys, there's some very, VERY subtle product placement in this game. I'm not going to say where, but it's really quite ingenious.
Supah Pie wooooooo , maybe you're talking About that pizza O,O
It really is. See how man is coloured like Pepsi?
Yep, it looks like a Pepsi advert, but it's actually promoting a charity speedrunning marathon!
The Lays potato chips?
I don't see it. On an unrelated note, I'm thirsty for soda. Off to find the closest vending machine.
"Do not worry about those very dead people on the side of the road. They are very dead, so it's ok."
That's a line that sounds like it's straight out of Portal.
Blood for the Pepsi God
I FELT EXACTLY THE SAME! LMAO
Obligatory yearly comment
@@svriko Another obligatory yearly comment (currently April 2021)
To be fair they are very dead
Those donations are golden.
"CURSES! FIZZED AGAIN! I'LL GET YOU YET, PEPSIMAN!" -Cokedude
Literally read this AS that donation played
What if there was a Diet Pepsiman?
Everything with this run is golden.
It's rare that the donations are a good part of the video. What a quality video. Just like a refreshing, cold Pepsi.
PEPSI FOR TV GAME
PEPSI FOR CHARITY
PEPSI FOR PEPSI
PEPSI FOR SPRITE :P
I wonder if the actor tried to explain to them that the line wasn't written in proper English. And I wonder if the director glared at him and mouthed very slowly "Pepsi. For. TV. Game."
*burp*
Pepsi executives: "This speedrun is great chance to promote our product to gamers!"
theboyks: "I'm gonna try to dodge every Pepsi can."
Pepso executives: "..."
Pepsi could sponsor a 100% speedrun. I think that requires you pick up all the cans.
Pepsi owns Mountain Dew, so i'm quite sure they don't have to worry about selling anything to gamers
Oh, you thought this post was serious...
@@B3Band Coke gave incentives to speedrunners to avoid Pepsi cans.
Pepso... Pepso... PEPS *O*!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Being in the audience for this was maybe one of the greatest moments of my life.
Pepsiman
Take me by the hand
Lead me to the land
That you understand
Pepsiman the voyage to the corner if the globe is a real trip
Pepsiman sitting on the land embodied by the sand
legacy of the worthless 2.0 when
I dont get it, someone mind explaining?
@@nutshot_brawler8466 maybe i'm late but if not i gonna explain: it's part of lyrics for meme music called "ocean man"
You might say it's a shitty game, but meanwhile this run had the most hype and donations in this years SGDQ.
Not to mention it was #1 on twitch and became trending on Twitch
I bet mike butters got like 10,000 follows after this
almost every bad game on the planet is greatly helped when you make a speedrun category out of it
DK64 is a buggy pile of shit? well that means any% is wild and fun, so let's flow with it
horrible quirky game with a few notable bugs? that's your own personal meme category now, good luck
becoming a huge meme makes anything better
although buggy, DK64 is awesome

There's basically two places in America, according to Japanese games and media: new york, and the desert
don't forget san Francisco
And sometimes Texas.
"Texas".
Still more places than in Japan with just Tokyo.
@@drewberry8945 nah, sometimes there's also kyoto and akiba
Sounds like Super Mario Bros. The movie
"So this is actually the highest APM that we'll ever see in GDQ.
That is, Advertisements Per Minute."
Easily my favorite run of the whole event. The crowd interaction, the absurdity of the game, the skill in such a simple game, everything about this was awesome.
Watching this while drinking Cola makes me think that i'm a traitor to humanity.
you are, but you can redeem yourself WITH A NICE CAN OF PEPSI. -PEPSI: PEPSI FOR TV GAME
You fucking satanist
This speedrun has inspired me to go as Pepsiman this Halloween.
Win Entity And run down the street, missing all the houses.
Win Entity PEPSIMAAAAAN!
Run starts @ 1:35
Hype starts @ 0:00
Mike butters needs to be on the couch with Pepsiman and this runner at the next AGDQ or SGDQ event!!!! #gdq work your magic!!!!
Nichole Hopper Can this be an incentive? If people will donate $4000 for a final fantasy character name I'm sure people would donate $5000 to GDQ to actually get Mike Butters on the couch for a run.
Next Year, they need the guy in the Pesi costume to be running on a treadmill for the whole run while drinking Pepsi.
Speedrun MGR with the Pepsiman Mods.
I'll donate $100 for that
Great heart attack recipe :D
He would die of exhaustion and overheating inside that costume before even reaching the 4th stage LOL
This game is what inspired Hideo Kojima to create his 2019 masterpiece MonsterEnergyMan
Pepsi is the powerup, Pepsi is the goal, Pepsi is the enemy, Pepsi is the hero, Pepsi is the cause and the cure.
Pepsi is the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. Pepsi will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the Pepsi of life freely.
Jontron Reference.
when you realize this man has trained for years for this moment
Zero Escape creator did 3D modeling for this game, and I can't get that out of my head.
So without this game, we'd have no Zero Escape. I say long live Pepsiman!
He's gotten much worse at character designs.
To be fair, you can't go up from perfection.
Zero Escape Part 0: Zero Pepsi Dilemna
WesleyB Crowen some good models id say. no sarcasm
The fact that Pepsiman himself is on the couch is amazing. Imagine playing Mario Maker and Charles Martinet is cheering you on
I'm so glad I stayed up a little later than usual and saw this entire run. This is probably one of the best runs I've ever seen, and I have a new love for Pepsiman.
The run itself seems kinda boring tricks wise. The game's funny though
We want a new pepsiman game !!!!!!
Pepsi Co. could totally commission and publish a mobile game where you run and collect Pepsi cans, but I doubt they will ever recognize Pepsiman as their official mascot.
with crystal pepsi coming back, anything is possible
+Derpizuke In august crystal pepsi will rerelease in the states and canada sometime this month
make your own fangame, I'm also making a tiny one right now
Correction - We DEMAND !!!
I see Pepsiman attended the Promethus School of Running Away from Things.
*ding!
Good one. :D
Pepsiman is the one who gives the lectures.
+redhandsbluefaces THEIF
I always thought he took note of the Jostar Secret Technique.
I never realized how much of Sonic Adventure 2 was inspired by Pepsiman, the alltime PS1 classic!
I love how so much more people are cheering and laughing because this probably the best meme game ever
Fuck the Crash Bandicoot trilogy remasters...
...a Pepsiman PS4 remaster is where it's at!
Easily one of the best runs I've ever seen
After watching this I went out and bought a pepsi.
This was the most meta advertising campaign ever.

Pepsi for Speedgames

When the video starts theye at $681,795, when it ends they're at $695,305
Pepsiman brought in $14,000 :D
There's just something wrong about a person with an Okabe profile image watching a video about Pepsi.
If they ever make a game called Dr. Pepperman, then I'm all over that shit.
There was a $33,333.33 donation during a SEUM run from this year
The most refreshing run of SGDQ this year.
Now to start petitioning for that sequel.
I drank a Sprite while watching this and I've never felt more shame.

A f*cking.
UA-cam icon.
For this game...
EPIC
Pepsiman got hundreds of us wanting to try out speedruns that day. It also made many of us very thirsty. For Pepsi!
So glad to hear that!
I used 39minutes and 57seconds of my life watching this. AND I LOVE IT
pepsiman guest character for injustice 2. a true god among men
I was drinking coke while watching this. It all somehow felt very wrong..
So many good memories from my childhood, playing this on Saturday afternoon with my brother and a Pepsi, of course! Thank you!
Where are you from? Last I heard it wasn't released in the US, only Japan, but that might be wrong?
+ImperatorZed I live in Mexico. I purchased a pirated copy when I was 10. I do still have it.
Mexico la tierra de la pirateria :v
I love the fact that they got THE actual pepsiman to be on the couch. Brilliant.
PEPSI MANNNNNN!!!

Never played or heard about Pepsiman before.. now I love it!

No, no you weren’t the only one.

this was one of those games that at first you thought will suck but then you got addicted to. i had a really good time playing this.
Who Is the guy in the Pepsiman suit? He deserves to be given the Nobel peace prize
His twitch name is frozentrually
This is the pinnacle of civilization. Awesome job, Boyks
Best run 10/10
And on that day, the greatest speedrun in GamesDoneQuick happened.
26:56 The time on the top left changes to "refreshing"
We need a sequal of this magnificant game.
certainly a better marketing plan than slapping emotes on the back of every bottle.
Ah yes, the star of this year's SGDQ
Proton Jon introduced me to this greatness. Thank you Proton Jon.
Just listening to the couch people giggle to themselves is wonderful.
And 17 years later, the marketing campaign finally begins to pay off...
I find it funny that this game is a lot bigger of an advertisement for Pepsi than they expected it to be.
This is the most shameless yet genius advertisement I've ever seen.
The runner says that there are certain levels that are difficult
For me, EVERY level will be difficult as I wouldn't be able to restrain myself from laughing.
Oh, Japan!
Hypest SGDQ game EVER!!!!
I think this is the most entertaining VOD I've watched of GDQ
Thanks! That means a lot

What have you done to the gaming community?...
he made it better
+Super! :3 So much better,
I love you, PepsiMan!
Come on man, Pepsiman is The Room of videogames.
What are you blaming him for? He made the game better!
I was there for that stream!
Pepsiman watches man do his game in 24 minutes and 47 seconds.
Stand Name: REFRESHING
Stand User: PepsiCo
Stand Ability: Can create Pepsi by holding out hand.
Rewatching it the thrid time, need a soda now ...
I went and actually played this today and I was surprised at how difficult a game this actually is.
have made it a tradition to watch this once every time i get some pepsi cans
Great run. Ive played it these days. Crazy game but fun. The only little problem is this song repeating all he game, and at the end sticks in your head and soul.
I don't think Pepsi has ever had this much advertisement. Japan truly is a glorious nation.
I dunno if Pepsi should have donated for the free advertising or filed a Cease and Desist for the defamation.
what defamation? this game is perfection
Thanks utube for recommending this video at this time. Really enjoy the video~
I am 31 now , I played that gave when I was 15 . I love everything about it especially the music 😍
All i can tell from this run is that GrandPoohBear (hoping i wrote that right) had the time of his life.
When is Pepsiman getting his own Netflix series???
I forgot how amazing this game was, and those epic cutscenes! XD Someone might want to update his IMDB page though, that's the one thing I don't think is listed. :P
amazing run!
"Get a Hot Pocket!" "Yeah!" im dying xD
In the commercials, the Red Pizza truck was a Cave-Pizza truck and had the exact Coke font.
This was the best run in the marathon by far.
This is my favorite AGDQ video ever.
A noble cause, driven by a love for video games....
and Pepsi.
Never trim out that beginning XD
PEPSI MAN FOR SMASH 5 FOR THE SWITCH! LETS MAKE IT HAPPEN NINTENDO!
I hope..how u like the Minecraft addition ?
Never thought this would be the highlight of the marathon.
This was perhaps...the greatest thing I've ever seen at a GDQ ^_^
*naaa naaa na na naaa naaa na na naaa naaa na na naaa naaa*

Thanks
1:35 now =)
It's like this game took all the riding levels and running away from boulder levels from Crash Bandicoot, made an entire game around that and nothing else, and made the main character look 1000x more creepy
The nostalgia of seeing this game again after all this years!
Can we get a Pepsiman speedrun at AGDQ this winter with Mike Butters as a guest? I'd donate to see that happen.
