'''Speedrunwiki''' is a videogame strategy website dedicated to the theory and practice of ''advanced'' videogaming. Speedrunwiki also records the history of advanced videogaming and celebrates important figures in that history.
 
 
 
This is about ''man versus machine''. This is about taking gaming ''above'' and ''beyond''. [[speed run|Faster times]]. [[high score|Higher scores]]. More insane stunts.

To put it simply, this is man versus machine. Not machine-assisted man versus machine, and not man versus man, although there's nothing wrong with that. This is about pounding the computer into a bloody pulp.
