GPT-6 Astra reportedly beats Fallout 2 in 22 hours using a vision-only harness

A Reddit post reports (unverified) that Clad3815, creator of Twitch Plays Pokemon, got early access to GPT-6 Astra and GPT 5.6 Sol and ran them through Pokemon Emerald and FireRed — and that Astra beat Fallout 2 in about 22 hours using a vision-only harness, reading only pixels rather than game memory. If accurate, it's a striking early datapoint on next-gen models' long-horizon agentic capabilities.
