Granted, this is not a 100% completion playthrough, but does highlight why so many people, rightly in my opinion, think this is nothing but a ridiculously overpriced demo.

 

If it's a demo, wait for the main game. You can play it there. 

It's amazing how they make those demos last 5 hours with all tasks completed. 

Also, lol at everyone suddendly talking about speed runs for this game. As if it took everyone 10 minutes to beat Super Mario Bros 3 or an hour to beat demon's souls. 

Demo's have traditionally been free, not $30, that is why there is an issue.

As for speed runs of other games, these were done after years of practice by very dedicated people, not but a journalist on the same day the game is released.

Again, demos are free and part of the main game. Calling Ground Zeroes a demo means it will be part of the main game. The term demo makes no sense. Some games are simply short. Is it overpriced for its length? Sure. Is it a demo? Nope. 

As for the speedruns, it doesn't matter if they are done years later. Some people are trying to prove a point, hence why they made the speed run videos. This has nothing to do with the actual game that the average gamer will play. The average gamer will not do a speed run the first time he plays the game.
