Between Resident Evil, GTA, Half-Life, Doom, and all the other games ripe for speedrunning, when it comes to new records, they often involve the discovery of a hidden glitch, or a super-complex exploit, that transforms the entire route. But this time we have something very different. More than 25 years since it was first set, the oldest speedrunning record for id Software's epochal FPS game Quake has just been beaten, cementing a new best time that until now was believed impossible. And the secret? There is no secret. Quake's hardest record has been defeated using sheer skill and determination.
