SDA is the home of speed runs done on many computer and console games. A speed run is a video of a player striving to complete a video game in as fast a time as they can manage. Sound easy? It's not! A large number of tricks are usually used, possibly skipping whole areas of a game in the process, and there will always be mistakes.

The most popular game to speed run remains Quake, where this site was born. The Quake section currently has its own news with over 10,000 demos on hundreds of user-made maps as well as the original levels and the two official mission packs.
